Manual

1. Add the Tampermonkey extension on your browser
2. Download the script from: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/34206-stream-to-vlc
3. Type "regedit" in the "Run..." command (Windows logo key+R)
4. Add a "vlcs" key to "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT" and add a new empty string value "URL Protocol"
5. Add three new keys "shell", "open" and "command" (See the figures if you have problems)
6. Change the Default string value of "command" with the path ["C:\Program Files (x86)\StreamToVLC\vlc_stream.bat" "%1"] (Copy also the quotes)
7. Clone the repo and open Windows folder
8. Now copy "vlc_stream.bat" in the path you wrote at the previous step (You have to create the new "StreamToVLC" folder)
9. The first time you open a streaming site you have to "always remember" choice (if you didn't go see Troubleshooting)

NB. If the script doesn't work check that the VLC path in the .bat file is the same of your computer.

Troubleshooting

If you didn't set "always remember" you have to go to the script source code (you can find it in the Tampermonkey dashboard) and add "//" at the beginning of this line: "window.close();" (row 88), then authorize and remember the authorization to open VLC and uncomment the line.

Rapidvideo

If the script on rapidvideo works only the first time you open the site, you have to disable your Adblocker on rapidvideo in order to make it works

Openload

If you see an error in VLC when you try to open an openload link you have to disable your adblocker on openload links (openload.co too, not only the one you see in the url bar, because if the site recognize the adblocker it redirects you to a different url).
