Question / Help VLC Video Source, having trouble getting started

Hey all,

I'm having trouble with VLC Video Source. It feels like, no matter what I do, when it creates, there's just one anchor point and no actual window. I'm trying to get it setup with the Extra-Life Miracle Stories playlist, so I go to "+" > "VLC Video Source" > "+" > "Add Path/URL" and then put in the playlist link, but... there's nothing.

I'm using OBS Studio 0.16.2
 
Ummm...

Make sure that security software doesn't block your OBS Studio application.
Do you have an example of the link (you trying to make it to work with VLC Video Source)?

At least you can try to feed 'VLC Video Source' with local link (maybe just link to local file).
