copy video URL at current time ?
How is the "copy video URL at current time used? If I try to copy a Youtube video at a specific time and copy it into VLC it does not work.
If I perform the same copy back into Firefox tab it shows the video at the current time copied. How is this option suppose to be used? copying into the same Firefox tab does not serve a purpose. Should it work in another video player?

I think YouTube is giving you the address of the current page on its website, with the added indication to a script in the page of where to start playing the video. It is not a direct link to the video media, so other players might not be able to use it (unless they can read the HTML and find the video within it).

Yes you are correct. this is no related to Firefox's menus
