I have a youtube video that I want to be by default HD (720), not the auto set by youtube (360).
All I found was I can configure what I'll see from other user's video, but I can't find where I set the quality the users how watch my video would have by default.
I'm using Camtasia 8 for the video. Maybe I need to configure it there?
Any hint would be great.
Perhaps nobody knows with this new youtube layout.
Thanks
Looks like that impossible to configure- You can only configure embed videos.
I solved this by simply prompting the user with those youtube comment to toggle HD, and hope they would.
I think youtube says it best here describing the way you can and should embed youtube videos.

Dears,
is there anyway to disable the related videos sent by youtube API through any player, as i am using WordPress and h5p for built LMS courses.
i am trying to disable the related videos at the end in the video and also there is more videos when you Pause the video.
hope the disable this as this is LMS and learning portal for users and they are confusing a lot from this videos.
best regards,
H5P needs to use YouTube's API for iframe embeds. That API does not provide an option to disable the related videos, and given that the API uses an iframe to provide the videos, there's no way to modify the video appearance. Guess you cannot get free video hosting and full control at the same time.
I know about how to play video in device. But Here I just want to know that is it possible to get streaming URL from any YouTube Video? Then how can I do it, I tried to search on google but I can not able to find my solution.
Generally I does not want to play direct stream from video, actually I want to save this URL (stream) in my buffer memory OR whatever temporary file and whenever user click on particular button then particular URL Stream is play.
Al Last I got YouTube APIs + iPhone = Cool mobile apps. But I am not sure that it's helpful in my case or not ? If anybody who worked on this API then please suggest me, Otherwise How can I get streaming URL.
Your suggestion will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

This will not work on all files, some will display the message "This+video+contains+content+from.....". But many will work.
Is it possible to get streaming URL from any YouTube Video? - No, it is not possible without hurting the terms of service of youtube. Google has built the business model of youtube around the advertisements all over youtube, in-video banners and video ads and they want your user to see their ads. This is the reason they completely hide the video stream and would ban your app if you anyway access and stream it directly.
The only consented way to play youtube videos on iOS is to embed it into an iframe of a web view.
Is this possible to allow just a specific website to display a youtube video
with the iframe embeded code? or with the api
With the iframe code alone it is not possible. Your youtube-video displayed on the youtube website. As long as anyone can view this video by going to youtube like thishttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJjg4JweJZU
for example, anyone can embedd it using an iframe.
What you could do is limit the acces to this video itself. As far as I remember you could specify whether anyone or just your friends can whatch your video.
The latter case may not keep people from embedding your video, but it will keep them from viewing it as long as they are not logged in to youtube and are your friends there.
I am using a Phonegap plugin for playing a video in my iOS app. I'm able to play a video with the URL format like http://easyhtml5video.com/images/happyfit2.mp4.
How do I play Youtube videos using the phonegap-videoplayer-plugin?
YouTube Terms of Service: "You agree not to access Content
through any technology or means other than the video playback pages of
the Service itself, the Embeddable Player, or other explicitly
authorized means YouTube may designate."
There are some methods that will give you direct link to youtube videos. Use "gdata" option to find all possible video formats.
Then parse the result to get desired link. Hope this might be useful
But everywhere I found the code to be edited in .m and .h files. None have explained how to use it.
That's because you can only directly use MPMoviePlayerController from native apps (written in Objective-C). For any other technology you'll have to have an intermediary layer in between.
From googling, I found this plugin for PhoneGap that claims to integrate with MPMoviePlayerController. I've no idea if it's any good, but it might do as a starting point.
try to give the youtube url in this format.

You will get the desired result. But Autoplay is not enabled, as Apple stopped supporting autoplay to save user's bandwidth
Is it possible to add to my youtube account a video I liked in youtube without having to upload it?
This is for an application i´m developing... I´m looking for something similar to share on twitter feature.
But any help is welcome!
Thanks
You can add it as a favourite, as Yuliy has said, or you can create yourself a channel, add a playlist to that channel, then add the video in a similar way to the playlist.
Doing it this way means you can 'see' it from the API(getplaylists, getplaylist)... But, if the original author decides to take the video down, then of course it will disappear from your channel page as well (or more likely say 'this video has been removed by the user').
You cant keep a 'copy' of the video like this.
