Can DS Player play youtube videos?


I've never tried to play a youtube video and I'm not sure how to even try. But aren't youtube videos pre compiled "swf" files? I know flash players can play "swf" and "flv" files but I"m not sure about youtube videos.

Not sure about the DS but I have gotten youtube videos tp play in the Jeroen player. A big branding plus was that the youtube logo is removed so you can place your own logo in it's place. The bad news was that I could not get it to work with all videos, some showed as missing.

True. Was just wondering like right now you can use bbcode to embed youtube and google videos for a artist but it plays separately. Just thought it would be nice to have.

Just looking over what I did when I set this up.


embed.tpl
Code


{if $VIDEO_EMBED_SOURCE == '1' && strlen($VIDEO_EMBED_VIDEO_ID) > 0 && $VIDEO_JEROEN_HQ > 0}

{assign var="youtube_base_url" value="http://www.youtubemp4.com/video/"}
{assign var="youtube_base_url_suffix" value=".mp4"}
{assign var="play_url" value="`$youtube_base_url``$VIDEO_EMBED_VIDEO_ID``$youtube_base_url_suffix`"}

{assign var="youtube_default_image_url" value="http://i4.ytimg.com/vi/"}
{assign var="youtube_default_image_url_suffix" value="/default.jpg"}
{assign var="default_image_url" value=""}


{assign var="player_skin" value="`$JAMROOM_URL`/include/jeroen/skins/overlay.swf"}
{assign var="autostart" value="true"}
{assign var="logo" value="`$JAMROOM_URL`/skins/xxxxxx/images/video_logo.png"}

<script type="text/javascript" src="{$JAMROOM_URL}/include/jeroen/swfobject.js"></script>
<div id="player">This text will be replaced</div>
<script type='text/javascript'>
  var so = new SWFObject('{$JAMROOM_URL}/include/jeroen/player_v4.swf','video_player','570','425','9','#D4D7D9');
      so.addParam("allowfullscreen",true);
      so.addParam('allowscriptaccess','always');
      so.addParam('wmode','opaque');
      so.addParam('flashvars','file={$play_url}&image={$default_image_url}&skin={$player_skin}&backcolor=#636163&frontcolor=ffffff&lightcolor=cc9900&controlbar=over&stretching=fill&autostart={$autostart}&logo={$logo}');
      so.write('player');
</script>

one way i can think of which was a class grabber i wrote for youtube that pulls the flv into jamroom itself and have jamroom players play the media i dont think youtube let you change there players but again i not tried that method you would need a grabber code for flv

I'm going to be doing some testing to see if it can be done with the player code I'm working with in the next week. I'm curious myself....... Wink

DS Players have always been compatible with Jamroom 4

But I got sidetracked on the youtube testing.
I'll see if I can get to it this weekend.

Don't let me forget...... Wink

It seems the instruction is different for the NOVA theme. I tried to follow the instaructions I used for the Flashback theme but i could not find some files in the Nova theme folder.

The Nova theme is not like any other Jamroom theme and if you have instructions for Flashback, they won't work in the Nove theme. I'm not sure what your trying to do but if you contact me by email I'll see if I can help. Wink

Brian has also posted some instructions for replacing the Nova Players here.....
