Install latest yt-dlp: https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/

Add youtube URL (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxxx) to playlist using URL dialog (press "U").

Fine, i did both of those. But i still can't play music (when i select any music from youtube, it just doesn't play and the track name is replaced by "QMMP 2.2.5" in the player)

Start "qmmp --debug" from terminal emulator. It may be possible to understand what is going wrong.
