This issue contains only one feature request. I will open one issue for every feature I want to request.
What feature do you want?
As a chromecast support workaround :
I'd love to be able to send a video to VLC at a specific resolution without having to switch from the "internal video player" to "Use external video player" (in the NewPipe "Video and audio" Settings) each time I want to be able to "chromecast" a youtube video via VLC.
The Share button could be a solution, but does not let use choose the resolution before sending the video.
Why do you want this feature?
Two reasons :
The share button sends the original URL to VLC and VLC opens it at the maximum resolution and then the video playback gets jerky because the resolution is too high
Switching from the "internal video player" to "Use external video player" (in the NewPipe "Video and audio" Settings) every time can be a little tiring over time

Why do you want this feature?
Two reasons :
Why not propose a button asking (when clicked) for the video resolution and append the chosen resolution to the URL accordingly before sending it to VLC, examples :
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mUa8HeRxaV4&fmt=17 (for 176x144)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mUa8HeRxaV4&fmt=18 (for 640x360)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5TouMs3QGBg&fmt=22 (for 1280x720)
And the cream of the cream : start the VLC chromecast feature automatically 😄
