I'm trying to find out the height of an embedded youtube-video (what I wan't to do is hide all embeds when I open a facebox and replace them with a placeholder of equal size). I (basically) tried this:
It always alerts 18, at least for the yourubevideos I embedded.
Looks at each paragraph and converts youtube and yahoo video links to embedded players.Example

I have a video gallery with a bigger div with width 500 pixels where the main video is waiting to be played and below is a smaller div with all the others videos from the gallery having width of 80 pixels.The list of video are managed by a content management system in PHP and are the result of youtube "Share Embed action" where the result is an iframe with the link for the video.How can i clicking on a video from the smaller div see the video being displayed in the bigger div ? already playing? or in a new layer above the website ?For now the video plays in the div it is located at.As an example here is the source video format :
<iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/somevideourlhere" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
I am currently writing a CMS and I need a few minor variable values from the YouTube Api. I wish to embed a YouTube video into a page and then extract key information about that video such as:
1. The Title
2. The duration
3. The number of hits
I'm trying to create a video box on a website that plays a youtube video and then automatically plays random recommended videos with no break in playback. An endless playlist created by youtube based on the initial video. Youtube uses Javascript API. I have never used Javascript before but i'm just trying to get the video to play as above. There are few tutorials online and I couldn't find anyone trying to do a similar thing.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI'm writing a blog post that uses multiple videos from YouTube and Yahoo Video, but I'm not happy with how long it takes the page to render. Apart from using an ajax-y method to load the videos, are there any tricks that would make the page load quicker with multiple videos from different sources?
View 6 Replies View RelatedIts a long shot posting here but the task I'm using a jQuery Carousel that has a youTube video embedded on one of the slides:
[URL]
I have is does any one know a way that when the user clicks a new slide the youTube video pauses, turns off, or at the very least the volume of the video is set equal to zero.
I'm not using any framework so I'm not looking for any jquery shorthand. I just need to change the youtube video with a click.
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
function changeVideo(vidSrc){
var link = vidSrc.href + "?version=3&hl=en_US&rel=0";
var movie = document.getElementById('embeddedMovie');
movie.setAttribute("src", link);
alert('SRC: ' + document.getElementById('embeddedMovie').src);
return false;
}
And the html:
Code:
<object width="560" height="315">
<param name="movie" id="embeddedParam" value="[URL]"></param>
<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param>
<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param>
<embed id="embeddedMovie" src="[URL]" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="315" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true">
</embed></object>
The alert shows that the source is changing however the page just goes blank and the src is not updated in the markup. I also tried updating the parameter along with the movie but still no luck. Does the same on all browsers. If I use the same technique for images it works so I don't believe it to be any DOM loading issue.
how to Dynamically embedding youtube video?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a YouTube channel with many videos. The links to these Flash videos are talking to a page within my web site. On the web site, the video pops up in a tiny window on entry of the page, and it closes when you click the close button or it will fade away after it has played its way through.
So the scenario is this: The site looks great, but it doesn't on an iPad. Because I am linking to a Flash YouTube URL, it doesn't load on the non-Flash iPad device. I have done a lot of online reading for a week and discussed on many forums. However, everywhere I turn, I read articles about how what I'm trying to do is not possible--that no YouTube URL will ever play on the iPad. Is this true? If so, why can they play on the iPad YouTube app? What is the difference between the app and my web page?
I found many articles and videos referencing this fallback: [URL]
However, my problem with this fallback is that my videos are on YouTube. I am using a URL to talk to it, more specifically an ID. The client has done this purposely to save bandwidth on their server. I have the start of the Javascript looking like this:
function loadPlayer() {
var params = { allowScriptAccess: "always" };
var atts = { id: "myytplayer" };
[Code].....
Within the loadPlayer function, can I add fallbacks in here (after line 4)? If so, how do I go about writing one? I suppose I'm just lost on how to get the HTML5 video option to work with my project. I have heard YouTube is using HTML5 video in beta, and it may be running in a few months. Would this auto-correct my problem do you think?
Is there a way to find the native file in the YouTube channel and bypass the .swf reference?
I'm a relative newcomer to jQuery (and for that matter an inexperienced web builder) but I've really enjoyed using the jQuery UI and plugins as I work to redo my site. My problem is this. My site includes many video progressive download files. I have tried to combine either jQuery UI (Accordian) or a plugin (nivoSlider) (not both at the same time) with a video embed using SWFObject. For some reason the combination cause my video playback to stutter.
Here are two test pages. They access they same mp4 files but in Test_1 I have disabled the nivoSlider js. The videos playback smoothly in Test_1 but in Test_2 the playback stutters. [URL]
I am embedding several youtube videos on a page, by default, youtube videos do not autoplay.
To get them to autoplay, one simply appends &autoplay=1 to the youtube url.
E.g. http://www.youtube.com/v/6YR0LGK_HHA&autoplay=1
(will autoplay)
As opposed to:
http://www.youtube.com/v/6YR0LGK_HHA
(will not autoplay)
Does anyone know of a cool trick for being able to do this when the client clicks on a JS link labelled Play Video (without refreshing the page)? Code:
Ok well I am trying to insert a youtube video into an iframe with designMode on so I have been doing":
Code:
iframeDoc.execCommand("inserthtml", false, "<object width='480' height='385'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/xlTyCymEM9g&hl=en_US&fs=1&'></param><param name='allowFullScreen' value='true'></param><param name='allowscriptaccess' value='always'></param><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/xlTyCymEM9g&hl=en_US&fs=1&' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowscriptaccess='always' allowfullscreen='true' width='480' height='385'></embed></object>");
However, it will not show the player at all.
I'm having a strange issue with the positioning of a youtube videobar in the the right sidebar, but it only seems to be happening on Chrome and Safari. When one of the video thumbnails in the bar is clicked, it's supposed to open a player video beside it, but in Chrome and Safari the player video opens elsewhere on the page. It appears to work fine in Firefox and IE7 (only other browsers I've been able to test it in so far).
When I take the website's existing HTML and CSS out of the equation and just test the videobar by inserting it in a blank HTML page (an example) the player opens in the correct position, which is a dynamic position calculated within the javascript of Google's Search API. I haven't changed it from the defaults, just copied it locally to the site. The bulk of the changes to Google's defaults that I've made were by placing the #videoBar div that contains the videobar itself within a styled #vidBarholder div with a background image. Both of those divs are then placed within the sidebar left floated containing div.
I'm trying to create a Youtube video inserter script for my site. Long story short, I need to be able to prototype an HTML element and add a string into the element's innerHTML, like this:
myObj.insertVid(5sw2OvIgoO8);
I'm using jQuery to getElementsByClass("sip").

I wrote this to trigger the video when an image is clicked, but it doesnt work.
Code:
<head>
<style>
#movie {}
#img {}
</style>
[Code]...
Take a look at this: [url] As you can see each img thumbnail has a title underneath. But I want the title to attach on the big player. It doesn't matter where exactly as long as I can access it with css.
(I have an additional question...When I put this code online the justin bieber video doesn't play. A message from Youtube is presented telling me that this is Vevo material and it can only be viewed on youtube. But as you can see it plays on jsfiddle.net.
was wondering if I could get some direction on something that I have been wondering about for a while. There have several flash video players that I have seen that only start to load/play the video when the object is visible on the screen.
For instance, if I click a link to an html page with an auto playing flv on it, and then minimize the window. The video will only start to play/load once I maximize the window again. The other instance I have seen it is with the position of the page. So if an flv is placed onto a long html page, all the way at the bottom, it will only begin to load/play once I have scrolled to make it visible.
I have done some searching but have not been able to determine what this would even be refered to as. Is it controlled by Javascript or Actionscript, or is this just a the way flash player functions?
With the dreaded embedded video issue? I have code to embed video into my site using object for IE and embed for firefox. This works fine but now I also wish to dynamically change the source of the video depending on which link is clicked. I know how to acheive this but I believe that my source changing code for firefox is flawed
My code for IE which works great is :
But for firefox and opera (which also seems to like <embed> rather than <object>)
I have the code below:
Example:[url]
When you visit that page, all that is loaded is and image with a "Click to play" button. Then when you click on the image, all the flash elements are loaded in place of the image. How did they do this?
I know you can do this with an external html file but I want to do it without an external html page so I can integrate it into wordpress.
I have a video (.wmv) that has markers in it one can access these markers in video players like "Windows Media Player" at "view" -> "file markers"
I want to embed the video object in an HTML page and be able to let the user jump to these markers via JavaScript or such. I managed to do this with Internet Explorer ודןמע JavaScript but I can't get any other browser to access these markers or any timeline. function for that matter. I need to be able to do so cross browser.
im working with execCommand and trying to make a function to insert a youtube video into a content editable div with execcommand inserthtml.

I've got an IFRAME it loads a page with variable contents. I need to know the WIDTH of the body of that page. I'm using offsetWidth and offsetHeight

This is weird....offsetHeight returns the height of the document body. offsetWidth returns the width of the iframe!

We are having an issue with the video playing on our client's site. The video plays fully locally but not fully once set live on the any of the browsers, it plays just the first 15secs, then it stops.
Can anyone share some ideas as to how we can resolve this. The player is in Flash, and uses an eternal XML file for the video. We have checked and all connection are correct.
