I've been getting some mixed information while trying to embed an iframe that contains the most recently uploaded Youtube video of a certain channel.
I'm unsuccessfully trying to use the below format:
src="https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=CHANNEL_ID&orderby=published&maxResults=1"
Any help would be appreciated.

I need to get all video ID's in a channel.
I've tried as much as I could on the google APIs explorer but I couldn't find out what I want.
So is it possible to get all videos in a channel?
If yes, how could I do it?
look at the url for the video it should look something like this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JkyA9wkAazE
the video id can be found at the end of the url. in the above example that is
JkyA9wkAazE
I want to embed the youtube upload page of my channel on my website.
I would like to know how I could do this. iframe doesn't seem to work.
There are two options available for you: (1) embed the webpage as a blockquote using Embedly, or (2) make a playlist of your uploaded videos and embed the playlist.
Use Embedly: The website Embedly uses a script to embed any webpage, including the uploads page of your YouTube channel, into a block quote. You'll be using their script in your HTML, so no guarantees on quality.
Make a playlist of your uploaded videos, then embed the playlist into your website by following the instructions on this page.
Good luck!
Looking at Youtube's API ... https://developers.google.com/youtube/player_parameters
They do have a user uploads feed.
https://www.youtube.com/embed?listType=user_uploads&list=USERNAME
IE for focuspullin channel
https://www.youtube.com/embed?listType=user_uploads&list=focuspullin
It provides a video as a and with a playlists that could be used in a iframe
But I would consider this subject to change. Google's knowledge graph shows completely different, older information, about an RSS feed. Unable to find that and it may no longer exist, [but there are several stackoverflow Q and A that reference it from a few years back.]
I need to embed a youtube video into my site but I need to allow certain people to be able to change the video that is shown without them going into code, How would I do this?
Another thing that could help is how could I automatically embed someones latest video onto the site.
If anyone can answer any of these thank you.
For adding a YouTube video without going into the code you could look at Google Tag Manager or a similar service. For embedding the latest video you might need to look at a YouTube API or similar to pull in the latest videos url.
I'd like to know whether there's a way to directly embed a vimeo video into a website or whether there's a way to get a stable link to the MP4 file.
E.g. this page: http://www.landfunker.de/ktv/detail.php?rubric=93&nr=86411. The video is only launched when accessing it from that page. In the source code, I see links like
fpdl.vimeocdn.com/vimeo-prod-skyfire-std-us/01/3026/7/190133161/631209312.mp4?token=587a20e2_0xece9d9d127813f2b792edb30032d4d9b0a7c484f
However, the tokens expire, right. Any tips? Any workarounds.thx
Use the Vimeo iframe embed code to embed videos on your site:
https://help.vimeo.com/hc/en-us/sections/203874347-Embedding-Videos
https://developer.vimeo.com/apis/oembed
To get the MP4 links for video files, you'll need to be a Vimeo PRO or Business member. Video file links are returned in the individual video's response from the API.
GET https://api.vimeo.com/videos/[video_id]
You can use the API's JSON fields filter to only return the video file links:
GET https://api.vimeo.com/videos/[video_id]?fields=files
Finally, note that you can only retrieve the video file links for videos on your own PRO or Business account. Vimeo does not provide a way to retrieve the video file links for videos on other user accounts.
API documentation can be found here: https://developer.vimeo.com/api/start
You can definitely embed a Vimeo video into a website - Vimeo provides instructions on their website:
To get your video's embed code, go to its video page and click the Share button. Then click the +Show options link that appears above the embed code field to reveal a preview of your embedded video with the Basic customization options. Once you've made your adjustments, you can copy the embed code and paste it wherever you'd like to embed your video.
They also provide an API based embed approach using oEmbed. There is a JavaSCript example using this here:
https://github.com/vimeo/vimeo-oembed-examples/blob/master/oembed/js-example.html
This basically calls the API with the URL of the video to embed and the response includes HTML which you append to your page.
Anyone know how to add the full upload feed from YouTube to a website using html coding??? I've been able to get single videos, but haven't found anything regarding all videos.
if you want to use the Youtube Data API you can retrieve all videos on a specific channel.
If you just wanted to embed a full upload feed from a channel, as this question states you can use the channel embed code, for example:
<script src="http://www.gmodules.com/ig/ifr?url=http://www.google.com/ig/modules/youtube.xml&up_channel=YourChannelName&synd=open&w=320&h=390&title=&border=%23ffffff%7C3px%2C1px+solid+%23999999&output=js"></script>
