How will people be watching this? I've tried watching youtube live with vlc but the most I ever get is about ten seconds before it crashes. My internet is pretty slow, about 3mb download. Messed with the settings but it always seems to pick the highest resolution which can't help.
i have a fast internet connection how do you watch live youtube videos with vlc??
also if your using wifi you could try connecting to your router with a Ethernet cable as that would be a faster more reliable connection
Just paste the video URL into VLC with Ctrl+V, or Media->Open Location from clipboard.
thanks!
minitube! Though, it's best that you know the exact title of the video.
I am a translator!
you can paste the url in minitube - it will start playing the video. that's right poglako!
LAS videos get published as recordings. So there's that.

I have a slow Internet connection, too. I'll just be watching it via youtube.com.
I don't have to worry about youtube's proprietary javascript in the HTML5 player, thanks to the addon "youtube-html5-player", which comes enabled by default with IceCat.

tomlukeywood: Just go to media/ open network stream and paste the url there.
I'm pretty ruthless with javascript these days so all youtube gets played in VLC this way or downloaded with unplug and DownThemAll. In the UK now lots of videos to do with local government and the scandals coming to light are being blocked by youtube. Some are even blocked worldwide. Unplug is a way to get round that as it downloads them anyway.
it makes me sad when goverments get away with censorship
if you want to view youtube videos with libre javascript
in your browser
here is a good video:

If you can wait until later in the day, Chris will post a WebM version when its listed at http://www.jupiterbroadcasting.com/show/linuxactionshow/
The easiest way to watch the live show with Trisquel (it starts in less than 30 minutes):
- Lauch the Totem video player (in Trisquel's default install);
- Type Ctrl+L (or something like menu Movie/Open a location);
- Copy/paste one of those two lines:
- rtsp://jblive.videocdn.scaleengine.net/jb-live/play/jblive.stream
- rtmp://jblive.videocdn.scaleengine.net/jb-live/play/jblive.stream
- Press enter (or click the "Open" button) and enjoy!
