Your question
On YouTube, I see that if I visit a video that requires sign-in, VDLH will not recognize any media to process on the page -- even if I am signed in.
YouTube message on video when not signed in:
"Sign in to confirm your age
This video may be inappropriate for some users"
After signing in to see the video, VDLH still fails to detect any media to process on the page.
I tested which videos needed sign-in with a private Firefox instance, and saw that YouTube videos that did not require sign-in were detected by VDLH (whether signed in or not), but videos requiring sign-in were not detected, even after signing in.
Example YouTube videos requiring sign-in (content warning, somewhat NSFW):
