If the URL of the YouTube page does not contain the video ID, it's not able to do its job.

Example: https://www.youtube.com/c/euronews/live

To add to this, also does not work on vods (videos that were livestreamed before and can be watched back later).

For example:

https://www.youtube.com/live/pKQYWVrtVjw

This can be circumvented by going to the equivalent /watch?v= url:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pKQYWVrtVjw

Would be nice if this would work. Took me a minute to figure out why it sometimes worked, and sometimes didn't.
