I am using webview in my iOS application to embed the youtube video using ytplayer api, its taking about 5 secs to load the video, all I want is to reduce the response time of the player,is there a way to achieve it?
I need the response time approximately equal to 2 secs
You mean increasing the response time? Because decreasing means your app is going to take longer time to run than usual. Anyway, embedding a YouTube video is different when running the official YouTube application. The problem is with the WebView. Please read this answer.

I was try to Video Kit in Tiktok
Video Kit Documentation
But, sometimes the response from their API is successful and gets the share_id. But, after I checked the Tiktok application for a while, I didn't get the notification.
I use the Video Kit with Web
Has anyone experienced it too? or solve this issue?
My expectation is always get a notification when I hit the API
I had the same issue. Uploaded a video, got a successful response, and waited for days for it to get into the app. Later, I discovered, that my video was too lengthy.
According to the documentation:
The size of the uploaded video file must be less than or equal to 50
MB.
The duration of the video file must be at least 3 seconds and at
most 60 seconds.
The supported video file format is MP4.
The video resolution is at least 540p.
Hope that it helps.
I use youtube-api to play youtube videos in my android app.
In https://console.developers.google.com ,they said
Free quota
50,000,000 units/day
My aim is to play only videos, i dont want any other information from youtube.
so, How much units it will cost to play a single video in my app?
Thanks.
Depends on the data your call to the API request. The documentation states what the cost is. On average its 1 to read data
Use this link as it gives you a cost quota

Tip. Only add part parameter you need
At 50,000,000 you don't have to worry though 😂😂
I work on an automatically music player. To be short, i use the Last.fm api to get a lot of tracks names and tags. Using these tags and some intelligence computing algorithms, once you play a track, the player sets another track (with tags very appropriate to the tags of the track listened before).
I used the youtube API to search for the URL's of the movies, and I managed to make it work. Now I want to make the videos play on my music player. I have tried to place the youtube player on WebView. It works, but not as intended. I want to control that player. I want it to start playing automatically, and I want to get noticed when the video ended so I can start the next one.
Any clues of what should I do to play the videos from youtube based on the search that uses the Youtube API, and to have control over the youtube player that I place on my GUI(make it play and stop from command line)? Or is there any possible way do download the youtube movie and play it using the JavaFX API? I searched google and noticed I cannot download youtube movie into a format that can be played by JavaFX api.
Update Dec 4th, 2015
Some versions of JavaFX 8 are unable to play back youtube video content. Currently, for instance, Java 8u66 cannot playback youtube video content, but Java 8u72 early access release can.
Also note some of the videos referenced in the sample solution are no longer available or are protected from play in embedded video players. So ensure that you perform any tests using available and videos that have not been distribution restricted. Refer to the youtube documentation for information on distribution restriction if need be.
Any clues of what should I do to play the videos from youtube
As a hints to get you started, see code playing YouTube videos in JavaFX and the YouTube HTML5 api.
Here is the sample code I linked running and playing YouTube videos back within a JavaFX WebView with some (very minimal) control over the video playback via interaction with a JavaFX "New Song" button.
Or is there any possible way do download the youtube movie and play it using the JavaFX API? I searched google and noticed I cannot download youtube movie into a format that can be played by JavaFX api.
I think such a usage would violate YouTube's terms of service. I believe YouTube requires you to play the video back using the YouTube video player (let's them insert ads in the video player etc).
5.1 A
you agree not to distribute any part of or parts of the Website or the
Service, including but not limited to any Content, in any medium
without YouTube's prior written authorisation, unless YouTube makes
available the means for such distribution through functionality
offered by the Service (such as the YouTube Player);
5.1 C
you agree not to access Content through any technology
or means other than the video playback pages of the Website itself,
the YouTube Player, or such other means as YouTube may explicitly
designate for this purpose;
I advanced little, but I got stuck to other problems.
First of all, the code from jewelsea was great. Now I could embed the player into a secondary window of my player and it shows the movie based on the URL that i got using the youtube api. But it looks like JavaFX cannot show most of the movies. It shows me the youtube player and an error message saying that I need to install latest version of Adobe Flashplayer. From my research, I noticed that the webView can only show movies with quality set at 240p, not higher.
I have searched a lot on Google how to make my webView to play the 240p quality video. First of all, i tried to set the youtube query parameters (https://developers.google.com/youtube/2.0/developers_guide_protocol_api_query_parameters#formatsp). I tried all the parameters from there: 1,5 and 6. But yet, I did not get the URL of movie with format that can be viewed on the webView of the JavaFX.
I also tried to embed the video quality in the URL of the movie like this:
http:/www.youtube.com/watch?v=og2YZlLhjKs&vq=small:240p ; but it does not work at all. I also wrote that URL in the browser and it looks like the youtube automatically sets the video to the highest quality, no matter what parameter I write in the URL.
The youtube api code that I used is the same like in this webpage: http://www.javacodegeeks.com/2010/05/getting-started-with-youtube-java-api.html
I just moved the main class code to a method that returns the URL of the first video that is in the list, and I changed the " query.setOrderBy(YouTubeQuery.OrderBy.VIEW_COUNT); "
to " query.setOrderBy(YouTubeQuery.OrderBy.RELEVANCE);". And this works fine, it shows the url to proper music videos that I search.
I am sorry for not showing the code of my project but it is big and it contains 2-3 api keys, and if you tell me how to change the video URL http:/www.youtube.com/watch?v=og2YZlLhjKs to work on the code from this website: https:/gist.github.com/jewelsea/1437374 , then I will know that to do to make it work on my project as well;
And the thing about YouTube playback API also enlightened me. I see that API has a lot of functions that could help me to play a lot easier with the video content (make it play, make it stop) but the problem is that I do not have knowledge about javascript programming and it is very sad that I do not have those methods in Java API as well. Maybe I will give it a try and insert javascript code into my webview. But, if I edit the webview using javascript... Is it going to play higher quality movies on the JavaFX webView?
Apple Http Live Streaming Overview document clearly states that streaming videos exceeding 10 minutes cannot be downloaded progressively and MUST be transferred using Http Live Streaming(HLS). It also states that the latency of HLS is in the neighbourhood of 30 seconds.
In my case, I am building an app that needs to receives live steaming videos in almost real-time. So on one hand I must use HLS for real time streaming but it is not fast enough. On the other hand I can not use anything else because it seems anything other than HLS is not allowed. I know RTSP is possible on iOS but will it be approved by the App Store?

Apple is not transparent. The only way to know if an app will be rejected or accepted is to submit it.
I've been asked to create a QR image that, on being scanned by a smartphone, will play a short 2-minute video. The video is currently in .mp4 format, but the format can change. The video playback works fine on iPhone however I'm having some problems with the BlackBerry Bold.
When the user scans the QR code the phone directs them to a URL. Right now the URL they are directed to is http://domain.com/video.mp4. However when the user attempts to access this page they get a 413 Error "Entity too large". Basically, too much is being pushed to the client.
Reading the BlackBerryForums.com.au thread titled "Request Entity Too Large", I see you need to increase the allowed request size. But the user is able to play YouTube videos perfectly fine on their blackberry! WHY? is the youtube video size smaller? What format is YouTube using? Why does YouTube work, when my method doesn't?
I know the obvious solution here is to use YouTube as a hoster and embed the video but I am told I cannot use this quick and easy solution.
The problem is that YouTube streams the video. What you're trying to do is get the user to download the whole video file.
You may need to get a streaming server so that the video can be played.
Alternatively, reduce the filesize of the file by reducing the video resolution and bitrate, make sure the sound is mono and low bitrate as well.
