YouTube video player with playlist

Not yet possible but coming up soon. Thanks for the tip

No, not being pushy. It’s not a quick fix but it’s not something very big either. I also have plans for extending this. As for ETA , I estimate somewhere by the end of this week (until May 9th). I also have some customers I have to work for so I need to find the time to do both. Hope it’s not too late for what you need.

Sorry for the delay. Lots of things happened lately, including the fact that I had to move. Sorry for this, hope I’m not too late with this. Anyway, I uploaded the files for review, should be available soon. I’ll announce here when that happens. Thanks for your patience and again, accept my apologies.

All good, updates were approved. Enjoy!

All correct. Let me see what I can do about this.

OK, changes done. It’s quite simple, all you have to do is define opened:1 on the playlist in HTML and that’s it. Waiting for approval, I’ll let you know when I get the confirmation from Envato.

1. The main thing holding me back from buying is, I’d really like the playlist to be videos I chose, and not just randomly generated ones, Is this possible yet?

A. Individual videos from playlist are created by making anchors into the playlist having a CSS class YTV _video and on the rel you set the id, volume, etc. User playlists are create much in the same way except that these elements have class YTV _user_playlist and instead of video ID you pass as params the YouTube user ID and the number of videos to retrieve.

2. Is there any way where when the first video ends, the next video plays automatically? and that continues on through until the end of the playlist?

A. Yes, the script takes a global variable that when set to true will play all videos from playlist one after the other. Also, you have the possibility to set on an individual element the option to stop playing on that particular video.

3. How hard would you consider installation and overall tweaking? I intend to implement this on a php forum

A. Installation shouldn’t be that hard. All you need to do is add the files in your header area, start the plugin and create the playlist. Please note that this plugin is created using MooTools and if you also use Prototype on your app, it might lead to unexpected errors.

One thing I need to ask you if you want to buy this is to wait for a bit. I’m trying to make an update that solves a small bug but unfortunately something happened to the edit page and I’m currently waiting for Envato to solve a ticket regarding this issue. Once that’s done and I make the update I’ll let you know if you’ll still be interested in purchasing this.

I just made an update to this plugin. To answer your questions again:

1. Yes, you can place specific videos in playlist. You can also load YouTube playlists into the player playlist by providing the playlist ID.

2. Yes, you can play videos in playlist one after the other.

3. Same as above.

If you have any other questions, please let me know.

First thing you need to to is set repeatPlaylist: true in script parameters (params are located in demos in head section of the page and named playerSettings).

Now, if you have individual videos in your playlist, make sure that for each video, end parameter in link rel is not set to 1.

Opened playlists will automatically play the next video if the repeatPlaylist parameter is set true. Playlists not opened will be skipped if parameter loadIfNext is not set to 1; if set to 1, try will automatically load and play the first video (and second after that one is done and so on) if the next element that has to play is a playlist and isn’t opened.

1. Set repeatPlaylist: true
2. Individual videos must have end:0
3. Playlist items must have loadIdNext:1

About expanding/collapsing the loaded playlist, sorry but that’s not available yet. Will try and release an update as soon as possible.

If you have any other questions, please let me know.

Well, you could first take the size of the element containing the player and start the player with the values returned. Haven’t tried such thing. One problem with this would be the fact that the video itself might look weird, too wide, depending on what values you pass to it.

Sorry for the delay of my answer, would have been nice if codecanyon had some e-mail notification on comments. Anyway, yes, an update will be available, can’t say exactly when, I’m involved in a different project now and will take a while till I get finished with it. Sorry about this, hope you can understand.

What playlist are you referring to? The script itself has a playlist but there’s no option to start the player with the playlist opened.

The only option for opened playlists is for YouTube playlists from script playlist. To get them to open by default, you should use on playlist element opened:1, something like this:

a class=”YTV_query_playlist” href=”#” rel=”{query:’disney goofy’, results:5, opened:1}”>Query for ‘disney goofy’, 5 results<...

This should work just fine exactly like on the live example here.

About the click on item playlist, it depends. Are you playing with the downloaded files or you’re trying to implement the script in some existing website? If later is true, a link to your implementation would help.
