setSize / loadVideo quality degradation issue

Posted in APIs on July 3rd, 2010 by Saba – Be the first to comment

Hi David,

I’ve tried our your player – nice work! After clicking on the thumbnail I do see the two black bars and lower res for a split second but then the video loads at the same quality as before and starts playing. Is the behavior you are seeing now consistent with what I see ?

Thanks, Jarek Wilkiewicz, YouTube API Team

.Net 1.4.02 YouTubeRequest.batch Batch insert into playlist – inserts 24 instead of 50

Posted in APIs, Uncategorized on July 2nd, 2010 by Saba – Be the first to comment

Hi,

string videoId = “Pe18N8U87YU”; string tag = “tag:youtube.com,2008:video:” + videoId;

for (int i = 1; i < 50; i++) { YouTube.PlayListMember newMember = new Google.YouTube.PlayListMember(); newMember.BatchData = new Google.GData.Client.GDataBatchEntryData(); newMember.BatchData.Id="New playlist entry: number " + i.ToString();

newMember.BatchData.Type=Google.GData.Client.GDataBatchOperationType.insert; newMember.Id = tag; batchMembers.Add(newMember);

}

GoogleClient.Feed returnvalues=request.Batch(batchMembers,firstPlaylistFeed );

I have used the same videoId as I am just testing that the batch processing works. Also, the Status property for each PlaylistMember in the returned feed is null.

24 videos are in the playlist instead of the 50.

The YouTubeRequestSettings properties are the default values.

Any thoughts ?

Thanks Tony

Dear YouTube, I’m not sure if this is the right place to post but can you make a number for your mobile phone to upload videos or post onto your bulletin on your channel that is free. I know Facebook and Twitter do it and I know there is a mobile email but that cost money cause its emial internet with a number isn’t. Thanks, Eric

in automatic replay it replays related to related to related videos

Hello,

if I understand correctly, you’re trying to effectively implement your own playlist. Here are the events the player generates :

You should be able to use “ended (0)”

Hello,

looks like you did not authenticate first, here is an example for ClientLogin :

Hi Zdravko,

synchronizing the behavior is being considered but no firm plans as of yet. If you can help articulate why it is a good idea I’ll be happy to advocate for it internally :)

YouTube API In Visual Basic

Posted in APIs on June 29th, 2010 by Saba – Be the first to comment

Hello fellow developers, I’m new to the YouTube API I’ve read a lot of documentation but none seem to help. I’m looking for a straight forward tutorial on how to download videos from YouTube using the API.

Thanks in advance,

Alex
