Hi,

I want to ask if sound/video playback of an youtube URL can be done with mod_vlc. Looking in freeswitch mod_vlc.c I can see "vlc_file_supported_formats[argc++] = "youtube";".

I have tried <action application="playback" data="vlc://https://youtu.be/VoeCcCQuJrM"/> without success:

"

Couldn't find any documentation/examples about youtube playback using mod_vlc. Can someone help me with some examples, please?

Thank you,
Stefan
