After going through different links that play perfectly fine it just stops working entirely. Even if I swap worlds I just get “can’t load video”. It stops out of no where, and won’t work for hours. This is the second time I’ve run into this issue and I am apparently not the only one.
This has only been an issue since the new update, I’ve never had this before.
Anyone find a soloution or have the same issue?
no vrchat staff doesnt help as well, my players dont work too, youtube, twitch or custom file
been getting the same issue for about a week now. videos load fine then randomly stop loading and the only fix that works for me is enabling my vpn
very frustrating and i hope its sorted out soon
So the issue is that YouTube’s bot detection flags the traffic since it sees a ton of downloads at once from an not-logged-in-user.
Vrchat uses a custom version of YT-DLP that doesn’t allow you to pass cookies to it - simply replacing YT-DLP after the game is already running (as the game does a version check on the file at startup) with the official version of YT-DLP lets you use your browsers login cookies
I made an app that does this automatically when you launch the game, you can find it over here :3
Thanks to you I solved it
