How do I change the YouTube player on my web site. Like http://vidsshare.com/
Use the IFrame API for the embed video. The IFrame player API lets you embed a YouTube video player on your website and control the player using JavaScript.
Using the API's JavaScript functions, you can queue videos for playback; play, pause, or stop those videos; adjust the player volume; or retrieve information about the video being played. You can also add event listeners that will execute in response to certain player events, such as a player state change or a video playback quality change
Just check the link above to know more about it.
For more information, check this YouTube Player Demo. This demo demonstrates the YouTube Player API's functions. Embedded players must have a viewport that is at least 200px by 200px. If the player displays controls, it must be large enough to fully display the controls without shrinking the viewport below the minimum size.

I would like to ask about developer policies of Youtube Iframe Player API(https://developers.google.com/youtube/iframe_api_reference).
Our team is currently developing an iOS app including Youtube embedded player.
We would like to check if our use cases below violate the rules for embedded youtube player.
Would it be okay if we use invisible player which we set opacity zero for purpose of getting thumbnail images in video?
Thumnails are taken by invisible player in the way as seeking to specific time and capture view at the time.
The thumnails are solely used for progress bar which consist of sequential images as green box in the below image and each image indicates each parts of video and there is no other purposes.
Images are made and used only in client local environment and not saved in our database.
Additionaly, can we provide the thumbnail extracted in the above method which background is removed?
Would it be possible that we hide below title bar which shows when player paused by adjusting CSS style, view frame size ?
Is there the other way to hide title bar ?
it seems that there are other mobile app services in Korea also using embeded player without titlebar like ‘Cake’ ( https://apps.apple.com/kr/app/cake-케이크-영어회화/id1350420987 )
We are developing feature ‘Metronome’ using BPM(beat per minute). for this, we need to use Audio PCM data in Video. regarding this we are currently examining three cases.
is it allowed to extract audio file from video to get PCM data?
is it allowed to access to device’s audio buffer to get PCM data?
is it allowed to record audio with mobile device to make audio file ?
Is it possible to provide a Metronome function that repeatedly plays a specific sound simultaneously with the audio of the Youtube video?
Would it be okay if we invert embeded player left and right? we plan to provide a mirror mode for user so that they practice dance conveniently.
Is it possible to provide a function that play repeatedly the specific time range (ex. from 00:05 to 00:10)?
Is it possible to provide a function that does not play immediately when the play button is pressed, but counts down for a certain period of time, such as 3 seconds, to play?
I want to ask about YouTube Required Minimum Functionality. Our development team wants to integrate YouTube player in mobile application, using iframe and react-native-webview.
Terms of services says that "You must not display overlays, frames, or other visual elements in front of any part of a YouTube embedded player, including player controls. Similarly, you must not use overlays, frames or other visual elements to obscure any part of an embedded player, including player controls." We are not planning to hide or obscure any part of player.
But can we prevent users from interacting with the YouTube player? For example, we want to prevent video sharing by wrapping the YouTube player in a component with touch actions disabled. But the user will still have the ability to control the video (stop, play, fast forward).
I am using Youtube IFrame Player API on my own web project.
I am trying to use it as an audio player, so I hide iframe, and add a button which call playVideo() function.
I am wondering if it is legally okay to hide everything (iframe, logo, controller, everything) and use it as audio player.
Is there any legal problem for commercial use?
Is it possible to control somehow remotely the YouTube player using the API? I mean, for example, sending a message to forward the video by 10 seconds, or switch to the next video.
https://developers.google.com/youtube/iframe_api_reference
You can switch to the next video with loadVideoById/Url, cueVideoById/Url (for YouTube Embedded Player).
But IFrame Player API does not have the messaging mechanism. You should implement original code in JavaScript (Note the following).
https://developers.google.com/youtube/terms/required-minimum-functionality#overlays-and-frames
You must not display overlays, frames, or other visual elements in front of any part of a YouTube embedded player, including player controls.
Is it possible to remove the YouTube logo from a chromeless player?
You can't and you shouldn't.
If you use the Embeddable Player on
your website, you may not modify,
build upon, or block any portion or
functionality of the Embeddable
Player, including but not limited to
links back to the YouTube website.
www.youtube.com/static?gl=US&template=terms
Now YouTube allows you to remove Logo in embed videos in your website. For this at the end of youtube url in embed vide just add modestbranding=1
Detailed explanation avaialble in How to Remove YouTube Logo on Embed Videos?
You can, just add the code ?modestbranding=1 : check here
You can't do this using the chromeless player, but you don't have to use it. You can stream videos directly by parsing the URL like such: youtube get_video not working
I had to do this to get more direct video access within flash, since you have limited access with chromeless player due to flash's crossdomain.xml
But as far as Youtube's terms go, if you do this you may have to have a link back to the Youtube source, else you risk copyright infringement of sorts, but I'm not sure.
You can't remove the youtube logo from the youtube player. But you can do indirect way means you can hide the youtube logo from the display area.
youtube logo height is 50 pixel. So Set your player height is your video height (accepted video display area height) + 100. and set vertical (y axis) position -50 (Minus 50).
Ans just do the masking for the your video display area. So End user will not get youtube logo on your application player. Please visit this Question.
