@theonlyShiro I've experimented the same issue on my Raspberry Pi. Few infos :
- It's probably due to vlc crashing as you're launching it from a shell with no display informations. To confirm it, try to launch vlc from your shell :
vlc
Then maybe try another player - It might be an issue on ARM architectures Livestreamer - Issues and I managed to stream your video on my linux laptop.
- Livestreamer isn't maintained See this Thread. Streamlink is the maintained version of it
- However Streamlink nor Livestreamer will support most of Youtube videos/music, producing this error :
error: This plugin does not support protected videos, try youtube-dl instead
So i'd recommend switching from livestreamer/streamlink to youtube-dl. You can do this by modifying the code in picast.js, and replace it to combine youtube-dl and a media player such as omxplayer.
Another streaming solution here :

It's my version of @lanceseidman PiCAST, i fixed livestreamer's issues and improved the GUI.

from picast.
So what is happening is express didn't get installed. Please use NPM to do an install of express.

@theonlyShiro @jbabu I can maybe help, what's the issue ?
from picast.
@DevonLian So the Problem is When try to stream a youtube video it says streaming youtube video but nothing happens. and look at my first post. but i have installed the express module
from picast.
PiCAST uses livestreamer to stream videos. However, livestreamer is not developped anymore it seems. There's a fork of it : streamlink.
Youtube often changes it settings, thus making unupdated tools to fail to fetch its videos.
1). Try using the command line to launch a youtube video using livestreamer
livestreamer URL
And give us the output. It always failed for me, telling me that "no plugin was able to handle that url"
from picast.
@DevonLian this comes up
from picast.
You need to do forever start <filename.js>
from picast.
