I am trying to use VideoJS to display a Youtube playlist (not a coded playlist. a Youtube playlist). My implementation is a copy of the example on the videojs-youtube github page: youtube-playlist
The video plays, but there is no playlist. Can anyone direct me?
I can post code. But, I am using the example.
https://github.com/videojs/videojs-youtube/blob/master/examples/youtube-playlist.html
I couldn't find an answer to my issue. But, I found a workaround. Posting here hoping it helps someone else.
Instead of pulling the playlist into videoJS, I wrote a script to pull in the playlist via Google's API, and wrote the output to html on the page.
See https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/playlistItems/list for info

I know that Youtube changed the ability to remove related videos (it'll show public videos in that channel now if you set rel=0. But i noticed some websites not having the related video, but when i try it with the iframe on my website, it has the related videos.
Is there any API or youtube request needed to remove the related videos?
There aren't official youtube api that accomplish this after changes you cited (ref: https://developers.google.com/youtube/player_parameters#release_notes_08_23_2018).
Only with workarounds you can "disable", or better "not show" related videos.
There are some snippets on the web, look those!
ps: example this https://www.maxlaumeister.com/blog/hide-related-videos-in-youtube-embeds/ (a platform's plugin or vanilla code)
I'm not getting the description form my uploaded videos when i query them via Youtube Data API v3 using OAuth 2.0 and the sample code provided here https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/playlistItems/list.
Could this be a bug? None of my videos are private and the only thing that is missing from the response is the video's description!
I'm using the PHP library and the "part" parameter is snippet (don't know if this helps).
Thanks in advance.
I believe this is intended, since video descriptions are not displayed when viewing playlists on YouTube.
If you wish to include the description of your uploaded videos, consider using YouTube API v3 Search: list instead. An ellipsis-truncated description will be provided for your videos under snippet/description. Again, this behaviour is similar to searching on YouTube, where descriptions are cut off.
If a full description is required, you'll need to use Videos: list.
Alternatively, use version 2 of the API: https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/youtube_username/uploads?max-results=50&start-index=1.
I test with browser with the link I get from "http://www.youtube.com/get_video_info?&video_id=xx" to see if it is be able to download.
After remove some parameters from original link, some works but some still don't.
I read some post here but most of are pretty old. A lot of change since then.
I wonder if there are somebody working on this recently.
The purpose I need this is because my youtube view program need a better quality video to display.
This is link doesn't work:

What wrong with it? I removed fallback_path and replace sig with signature.
The working link is for webm. This is for h264. Both have the same kind of parameters.
And this is working now.

That's not a supported method of interacting with YouTube. You need to use one of the official YouTube Player mechanisms to display YouTube videos.
Please familiarize yourself with the YouTube API Terms of Service if you have any more questions.
I searched far and wide and came up with nothing.
Ok, that is not completely true, there are in fact tons of solutions on the Internet (even here on stackoverflow) on how to get a download link for youtube video, but not a single one of them is working anymore, since youtube seems keep changing things all the time.
What I want to do, is to write a PHP script which will be able to download video from specified youtube page and then save it on the server in flv or mp4 format.
I can get some video information by downloading this: http://www.youtube.com/get_video_info?&video_id=VIDEO_ID
But thats about it, no matter what I do, I just cannot figure out how find the link pointing to the video download.
I tried to use this link: http://youtube.com/get_video?video_id=VIDEO_ID&t=TOKEN&fmt=18&asv=2 from one more recent solution I found, but either there is something missing in it, or it's completely outdated already too.
So how can I dig out some working link for direct video download from youtube?
There has to be some way to do it, since there are some web pages out there which provide this service.
Thank you for any advices.
I prefer RealPlayer to download videos from youtube and other video sharing sites like metacafe, funnyordie and others. You're able to download in both mp4 or flv format, save them, and view them whenever you'd like.. even if you're not online which is great for travel. http://www.real.com/realdownloader
Hi guys, this is my first time to post on this awesome community so
please bear with me.
I am working with a Wordpress Plugin that can display a Youtube Search Results into Video Playlist.
My settings are:
Keywords
Author
Content- channel/keyword
My first Approach was this:
with this api as reference,
search for the keyword > display the relevant results according to the author as playlist
*I'm in doubt if I this is possible, coding 30%
*I'm not sure where could I use my settings for Content
but then when my coding is in progress I recently bumped an article that says Youtube Search is differrent on Searching a Youtube Playlist
Now I can't continue my coding because I'm not sure If I'm doing it
right. Can you give me some advise with this situation or show me some
similar project/examples?
You don't have to write any YouTube Data API code for this; it's a built-in feature of the YouTube Player.
This blog post has an example of loading a list player that takes its content from the recent uploads of a channel. You can do something similar by setting listType=search&list=SEARCH_TERM, where SEARCH_TERM is whatever string you want to search for (be sure to URL escape it). You can read more in the documentation.
