It's mostly focused on broadcasting not playing youtube. I remember getting it to work at least once but its a bit fragile because it has to parse all the dash manifests etc which keep changing. I'd recommend caching it by downloading it with youtube-dl first then playing it. This will probably improve as the industry finally adopts all the streaming stuff.

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:

" EXECUTE sofia/internal/7479572798 playback(vlc://https://youtu. be/VoeCcCQuJrM) 2016-11-11 13:23:36.772643 [DEBUG] mod_vlc.c:832 VLC attempt to open https://youtu.be/VoeCcCQuJrM read 2016-11-11 13:23:36.772643 [DEBUG] mod_vlc.c:857 VLC open https://youtu.be/VoeCcCQuJrM for reading 2016-11-11 13:23:36.772643 [NOTICE] mod_vlc.c:863 VLC Path is http https://youtu.be/VoeCcCQuJrM 2016-11-11 13:23:36.772643 [DEBUG] switch_ivr_play_say.c:1467 Codec Activated L16@8000hz 1 channels 20ms 2016-11-11 13:23:36.772643 [DEBUG] mod_vlc.c:242 Got a libvlc_MediaStateChanged callback.

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

Thank you, Stefan
