Why use wireshark when the URL should be in URL window of your browser?

Additionally if its a webpage that has a video that is really up on youtube but in a window frame in a web page you should be able to right-click on the window and get information that way which would reveal the URL path.

Additionally if you can see the page source for the page your at that has an embedded youtube video it should have an iframe as information shows here which would reveal the path. http://www.simplehtmlguide.com/youtube.php

If wireshark is the only way then check out this here as a possible solution: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1097488/decoding-url-in-wireshark
