Using iframe a youtube playlist embed displays the first video
playlist opens with this view
I want the view to open like this
This is my preferred default view (I would really like to open with titles, not thumbnails
It seems is not possible using YouTube Data API.
You'll have to use YouTube Data API for retrieve the videos from a given playlist, then, use custom code HTML, CSS, javascript, etc, for create a similar result as you need.

YouTube supports interactive-transcripts, using both machine-generated and user-uploaded transcripts. This is very useful for hearings, lectures, speeches, and educational videos where a visitor might want to read along or jump around. For example in this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IY3U2GXhz44
The visitor can click on "...More" and then "Transcript" to view the interactive-transcript.
How does a video owner make that hidden feature automatically open for visitors? I cannot find any documented method for doing that through the API for either embed or linked videos. Is there an undocumented method in the API, or a URL parameter like "&action-panel-transcript=true" that works the way I'd expect it to?
As for url parameter, you can try adding &cc_load_policy=1 behind the rel=0 if it's an embedded video or &yt:cc=on at the end of the url if it's a link to the video.

this is desired output for site
this is how youtube displays multiple playlist...how can I add this just like they have it to my site AND to linkedin profile?
embedding the share html link just brings in playlist but it does not display properly....I need it to appear exactly like it does in attached pic???
Linking to your LinkedIn profile, I have not tried. So perhaps someone else can tell you.
As to having a section like the one you showed to be on your own site is doable.
Firstly you will need to collect the playlist ID's that you are going to use.
Then you will need to get the video ID's from the video's in each Playlist.
This can be done with the API.
As to the displaying it like on youtube, you will need to do that yourself with one or more combination of table's, div's and CSS. Then With the information you grabbed in the APi, populate it.
Best to do it in a loop so as to be done all at the same time. Then put it to the page where you require it to be.
Suppose I want to find list of videos which have the phrase "French presidential election" in its subtitle.
Can I do this using YouTube API?
It will be perfect if it can even search within both human-generated and auto-generated subtitles. But it will be good enough if it can search either of the two types of subtitles.
You may refer with this documentation. You can use Captions: list which returns a list of caption tracks that are associated with a specified video.
Note that the API response does not contain the actual captions and that the captions.download method provides the ability to retrieve a caption track.
You need to provide the videoId parameter that specifies the YouTube video ID of the video for which the API should return caption tracks.
Here's a related thread: How to add Subtitles to Youtube video using Youtube API?
If you want to just search the subtitles from a particular video that is open on youtube.com you can view all the subtitles by selecting 'Open Transcript' from the ... button which is displayed below the main video window and to the right of the title (to the right of SAVE) - then you can just search them using the browser's page search functionality (i.e. Mac: ⌘+F, Win: Ctrl+F)
I'm trying to add videos to an existing ASP.NET MVC site, and I'd like to show videos from our YouTube channel.
I have added a tag to each video to indicate what page it should appear on. I had thought that I could search our channel by tag on each page to render the relevant video on that page.
I'm trying to exclusively use the API v3, but it seems I can't do this.
I can't use developer tags, because videos are uploaded by multiple users using the standard YouTube front end. This seems like basic functionality, so I'm assuming it's my inexperience with this API.
As an example, our YouTube channel is ChillinWithCharlie. During development, one video is tagged 20141213Cheneys.
I can get all videos in our channel, but is there a way to query the v3 API to retrieve just this video?
I've seen one suggestion here that I retrieve all videos, and filter in code. This feels inefficient, so I'd rather not do this, but I can't even see where the tag is returned with all channel videos, that I could interrogate in code.
It's not just you. There seems to be no specific query parameter to search by tag with API v3.
I would recommend doing a search with your tag in the 'q' (search) parameter, then checking the results to see if the tag exists in the returned snippet->tags property to verify the exact video.
Note YouTube tags are only visible to the video's uploader.

Do you know if it is possible to show images and videos in RSS? I've always shown text and links and i would like to know how can media be inserted in RSS feed.
I use ASPNET.MVC3
Just include markup like you would for a webpage. Here is an example feed from npr.org music that includes images and videos.
