Mahir,

You didn't configure your videocache properly. Please do these,

Check if there are videos in /var/spool/videocache/youtube/ ?
Check your cache_host option in /etc/videocache.conf file.

Make sure cache_host option is correct.

Thank You!

Mahir,

You should set cache_host to the IP address of your machine.

Thank You!
