Hallo Wouter, I applied the code and It worked but only locally, when I test it on my server It doesn’t work, Do I have to do something else to make it work when I put it online?

Sorry for my bad english, thanks for the help

Hey Mike,

Indeed, they changed their html source. I have updated the youtubeHtmlData function:

function youtubeHtmlData(src:String):Void{
var args:String = src.substr(src.indexOf(‘video_id=’) + 9);
args = args.substr(0, args.indexOf(“‘”));
this.ns.play(“http://www.youtube.com/get_video?video_id=”+args);
}

Enjoy!

Hi, thanks for the code. It seems it doesn’t work anymore and YouTube changed their HTML Data. I get this error :

Error opening URL ‘http://www.youtube.com/get_video?video_id=/version-check.swf‘

In the HTML Data :
var to = new SWFObject(“/version-check.swf”, “checker”, “0″, “0″, “0″, “#FFFFFF”);

Do you know if there’s any workaround possible ?

Very nice, I am working on finding a way to play youtube video from a SWF, thanks for posting.

This code plays FLV files only I am hoping to find a way to modify this code so that it can play youtube videos,

stop();
_root.player.autoPlay = true;
var curPlayURL:Object = new Object();
var PlayURLWatcher:Function = function (prop, oldVal, newVal, userData) {
trace(“set “+newVal);
_root.player.setMedia(newVal);
return newVal;
};

curPlayURL.watch(“cururl”, PlayURLWatcher, 0);
player.addEventListener(“playheadChange”, controlListen);

Any Thoughts?
