Embedding YouTube videos? - html

I have been looking for a way of embedding youtube videos into my site. The website is made of html and the youtube videos should auto-update as I would like to display all the videos on the current account? I know theres ways of embedding one video or playlists but Im not quite sure how to go about embedding everything on a users channel? Any Tips?

Just use the following as the src of an iframe:
http://www.youtube.com/embed/?listType=user_uploads&list=*USERNAME*
For example:
<iframe id="ytplayer" width="640" height="360"
src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/?listType=user_uploads&list=apple"
frameborder="0" allowfullscreen>

You can get info on the parammeters of the player on this link: https://developers.google.com/youtube/player_parameters#Manual_IFrame_Embeds
Scroll a little and you will see the url for user videos.

Embed youtube videos

I want to put a video on my website using the embed option on youtube.It shows up but when i try to play it appears a text saiyng that the video is restricted on some websites and gives me the option to watch on youtube . I saw that i need to accept some terms of conditions and that includes the youtube API from what i saw .
Is there another way to put a video on a website without the API ? Also i should mention that the website is not on a server.
I'm using this iframe to show the video :
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/dgV1n57ejCY" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

YouTube iFrame automatically opens YouTube app. How can I stop this?

I used the default YouTube iFrame for my website. My users have said that upon entering the web app, it redirects them to youtube. I find this annoying for me and for my users.
Is there any way I can stop this from happening?
Here is the code that is causing the YouTube app to open:
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/wCtedSNYBLc?rel=0&controls=0&showinfo=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
The site this is on can be found here.
You can use "playsinline" parameter to play the video inline instead.

The youtube video is not loading in the my local webpage

I have taken the following iframe code for the youtube video from the youtube itself.
<iframe width=”560? height=”315? src=”http://www.youtube.com/embed/V3oJR5IAMxM” frameborder=”0? allowfullscreen></iframe>
But when i try to embed this video on simple web-page inside a div element. I can see the you-tube player in the web page.But the video is not loading in my webpage. But the same video is playing for me in youtube.
Can someone tell what might be the problem,..
Is the problem with a code or with the browser, i am using mozilla 13.
HiTbmBizz,
Try this instead,
<iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/V3oJR5IAMxM?feature=player_embedded" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Worked for me in HTMLSandbox if you want to test.
Let me know how it goes.

Embedding videos from youtube in a generic way

I am creating a web site where users submit their (raw) youtube links and the system should automatically embed them. However, I cannot embed the youtube videos unless I get the special embed link given by youtube. How can I manage to embed any youtube link provided to the system ? Any suggestions ?
Can't you just drop this in, and update video_id as need be?
<iframe class="youtube-player" type="text/html" width="640" height="385" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/VIDEO_ID" frameborder="0">
</iframe>
Cenmre, I have the perfect solution for you.
YouTube supports oEmbed, which lets you send it any URL, and get back the appropriate embed code.

YouTube video in HTML5

How do I play a YouTube video in HTML5?
This is probably what you're looking for:
Force HTML5 youtube video
HTML5 video may play if the user has opted in:
<iframe class="youtube-player" type="text/html" width="640" height="385" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/VIDEO_ID" frameborder="0"> </iframe>
HTML5-by-defualt video - notice the ?html5=1:
<iframe class="youtube-player" type="text/html" width="640" height="385" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/VIDEO_ID?html5=1" frameborder="0"> </iframe>
The "HTML5" way of doing video would be to use a <video> tag. This post shows that it can be done, but it doesn't look like the best option. Show Youtube video source into HTML5 video tag?
You can also take a look how YouTube does it, opt in at: http://www.youtube.com/html5
If you're using safari, there's an YouTube5 extension that will make all youtube videos into html5 videos.

Supports videos that youtube does not (videos with ads etc)
You can embed videos effortlessly by right clicking the video on youtube,
copying the embed video option, and pasting it in your html where you want it to appear, The problem with this you wont have control over what is shown in the embed code apart from the clip you are interested in, ie, adverts playlists etc
