When running:
cvlc -vvv 'Bootstrap Tutorial.mp4' --sout '#rtp{dst=rtmp://a.rtmp.youtube.com/live2,name=pa1p-8c4m-zzvp-5j6t,mux=ts}'
I get this debugging log.
When additionally specifying the access method:
cvlc -vvv 'Bootstrap Tutorial.mp4' --sout '#std{access=rtmp,dst=rtmp://a.rtmp.youtube.com/live2/pa1p-8c4m-zzvp-5j6t,mux=ts}'
I get this debugging log.
How do I stream live video and audio to YouTube using VLC from terminal?

VLC supports RTMP and rtmp:// URLs as of version 1.1, through the avio module via the libavformat library. In past versions, use of rtmpdump was required in conjunction with VLC, but that is no longer needed after VLC 1.1.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-Time_Messaging_Protocol#rtmpdump Because RTMP requires encryption to be viable for streaming securely, VLC may not support streaming to YouTube.
You can stream to YouTube Live with RTMPS, a secure extension to the popular RTMP streaming video protocol. It is RTMP over a Transport Layer Security (TLS/SSL) connection and provides encryption.
i transmitted video to youtube live from terminal using vlc.
Following is the command:
cvlc -vvv FILE016.MP4 --sout '#transcode{vcodec=h264,scale=Auto,width=1280,height=720,acodec=mp3,ab=128,channels=2,samplerate=44100}:std{access=rtmp,mux=ffmpeg{mux=flv},dst=rtmp://a.rtmp.youtube.com/live2/stream-name}'
Note , youtube sometimes shows a message to use h264 as transcoder and ab to 128 when i tried to transcode video to flv on a low speed internet connection.
