Fixed youtube playback

Hey, couldn't get Youtube videos to play, so made some minor changes to make it work. If anyone else have problems with youtube, you could try this. Tested with Mediaportal 1 RC 2 and mplayerplugin.

Yeap is working.
But.....is always a but i asked that a thousant times .
Is there a way to search youtube but NOT from rss feed?
Because the result is like 15 links .from 300.
Thank u for making this work!

 

Not that I know of... as far as I can see the search function uses the rss feed api as it is documented.

 

Thanks for this, will be trying it later

Edit: works great, thanks

 

GREAT job Vattenmelon,

Since the changes to onlinevideo were minor, could you please post the line(s) of code that got youtube working again?

Thanks,

rj

 

Some days since i did it... but i believe it was at line 350 in YouTubeUtil.cs where i replaced:
loRegex = new Regex("BASE_YT_URL\":.*t\":\\s\"([^\"]*)"); with the following:
loRegex = new Regex(".*t\":\\s\"([^\"]*)");



After looking some more on the code, I see that I commented out the loggedIn part, so I guess my version don't work for people that are logging in with their user.


//if(isLoggedIn()){
// loRegex = new Regex("new SWFObject\\([^&]*&video_id=.*[&]l=(.*)[&]t=([^\"]*)");

//}else{
//loRegex = new Regex("BASE_YT_URL:[^,]*,video_id:.*[,]l:'(.*)'[,]t:'([^']*)");
// loRegex = new Regex("BASE_YT_URL\":.*t\":\\s\"([^\"]*)"); //den som ble brukt
loRegex = new Regex(".*t\":\\s\"([^\"]*)");

armandp and Spragleknas: I agree, maintaining a plugin like onlinevideos is timeconsuming. I'll guess a working youtube plugin is the most important when it comes to playing online content. (It's the only site I use in the onlinevideos, and I guess it is for many other people too).

 

FABULOUS!!!!

That did the trick.

BTW, Google's developer documentation states that the YouTube API is being phased-out, and developers should start using the YouTube option of the Google Data API, which appears to require authentication before the APIs will respond.

Thanks very much for the regex fix. Hopefully it will work long enough to figure out where Google is headed with their APIs.
