I can''t help you with using the API. However, I did find this method
helpful for _displaying_ the videos
def youtube_video(url, width=600, height=nil)
height ||= (width*355/425).floor
url = url.gsub(''watch?v='', ''v/'')
"<object type=\"application/x-shockwave-flash\"
data\"#{url}&rel=0\" width=\"#{width}\"
height=\"#{height}\"><param name\"movie\"
value=\"#{url}&rel=0\" /><param name=\"FlashVars\"
value\"playerMode=embedded\" /></object>"
end
The url argument is simply the URL from youtube. This way, the users
don''t have to use YouTube''s "embed this" text,
(which some find
confusing) and instead I can impose my own parameters such as width/
height/etc.
I''m sorry I couldn''t help more.
