PHP - Bbcode Embed Youtube Video W/o Scroll Bar.

Ok I have a unique issue I have a decent sized database for a fix up and modify project I just landed. My problem is my client has a table with plain html, flash, javascript it in. Which generally speaking isn't to much a problem if I we're going the straight php route to get the data from the database. However I'm not so lucky. These people wish to have the element being built by me to use AJAX to give the site a "2.0" feel, which again to a point fine. So all this said and done, I am going using jQuery as my frame for the javascript. The landing page for the script is PHP it handles any potential user input checks before it works its way into the javascript variables to then use JSON through the javascript to another php file which in turn double checks the inputs just incase someone wants to go in to the source find the way to the file its gathering the data from an all else. Then based on the data forms its output. Which I don't know why Ive wasted my time explaining that, we all know how JSON works in concept at least.

My issue with this all is, a single column or 2 but ill stick with just the one for now... with these people having stored plain html, javascript, and object tags for flash in the column without any htmlspecialchars or stripslash's or really any security per say in mind. In other words I can go into any column and just copy and paste the code and have it work in an HTML file as if it were typed out for use in HTML alone. So with that, my JSON requests are failing due to the extra quotes, double quotes, slashes, and all else. What I am trying to figure out is, what is my best method to phrase the output of the DB so its friendly for for the JSON request yet can be repieced back together via javascript/jquery.

Any takers on that idea?

Hi,

I want to get a latest video from Youtube Playlist. I look it on Google API, and the other solutions, but I think dont undestand quit good what I need to do.

For example a have a playlist:

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLW8l7rX2YaXkaSI8GGbmqPjOEmfzd2hz3

And I want to see always only a latest uploaded video, so I need a link (embed - watch, or "youtu.be/xy"):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LyzziLETNUw&list=PLW8l7rX2YaXkaSI8GGbmqPjOEmfzd2hz3

Thanks in advanced,

any ideas? Thanks

Hello everyone

     I am working on a blog system. and I am having problems with the youtube video embed I have found some script online that kinda works

If I post more then one youtube link the player shows up.. but it says movie not loaded. if I post just one video it just shows the url to the video on youtube.

here is my youtube_function.php


<?PHP
//convert youtube links into embede

function show_youtube($text)
{
$VID_WID = 320;
$VID_HEI = 240;

for ($k=0; $k<9; $k++)
{
$text .= "";
$find = 'youtube.com/watch?v=';
$pos = strpos($text, $find);
if ($pos == false)
{
break;
}
$len = strlen($text);
for ($i=$pos; $i>=0; $i--)
{
if (substr($text, $i, 6) == 'http://')
{
$pos1 = $i;
break;
}
}
for ($i=$pos; $i<$len; $i++)
{
if (in_array($text[$i], array('&', ' ', "\r", "\n", ',', "\t")))
{
$pos2 = $i;
break;
}
}
$link1 = substr($text, $pos1, $pos2 - $pos1);
$link2 = str_replace('/watch?v=', '/v/', $link1);

$embed = '<object width="' . $VID_WID . '" height="' . $VID_HEI . '">'.
'<param name="movie" value="' . $link2 . '"></param>'.
'<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param>'.
'<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param>'.
'<embed src="' . $link2 . '" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" '.
'allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" '.
'width="' . $VID_WID . '" height="' . $VID_HEI . '"></embed></object>';

$text = str_replace($link1, $embed, $text);
}
return $text;
}
?>


and I have index.php

so as you can see I have show_youtube($post->post, $text); I have tried this just out of curiosity to see if I could fix this myself. but It seems like the video does not want to run at all... I am confused with this and some help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance

I have a video system on my website that allows users to post videos and it embeds youtube videos into the site, I would like to create an interface where you can comment on the actual video itself and it go to youtube's commenting stream. Is that possible? difficult?

I'm not sure if this is possible   Previously I had a problem of outputting rows of a specific query   This was the solution that was given to me

$txt .= $date . " " . $stratoparse . "\n\n";

Where a while loop's results were concatenated to a single string   What I would like to do is output the results in individual containers with controls such as dragging for repositioning / an x for deletion   That's not what I'm here for in this post   I want to embed youtube videos, so they are not just stored as links, rather a clickable video   so if you have something like string.string2.string3.string4.string5.<iframe src="youtube"...>.string7.string8   how would that video be isolated and parsed / understood as a front end youtube video ?   To provide a brief background in case you are wondering why in my right mind, I would want to do this...   First it is the primary solution that comes to mind going off what already works   Secondly, the purpose or point of the concatenated string comes from the "application" design which is a store and recall interface.   Vague, I know. The website has multiple users and they all have access to a single database. They save random strings, whether they are paragraphs or links, possibly videos that are uploaded, etc... these are saved by a keyphrase, later recalled by searching that keyphrase.   Currently the output is nothing more than a concatenated string, that was fine initially but some of my friends have been testing the website and they made suggestions which are good such as repositioning and deleting entries. Now I want to automatically parse youtube links into embedded videos...   I'll probably use that explode "function" to disect the link and place the url within the src=" "   Anyway, I have to look into this but if anyone has any thoughts I'd appreciate it.

Anyone have access to a youtube video/audio downloader script? I'm sure there are one of these laying around somewhere... Looking for 1.

so when you go to my site the php code will retrive the latest video from bbc and get the link.
so i now have $url as having the value of the video
but i now need to insert it into the html embed video code.
so how can i make this.
Code: [Select]
<object width="416" height="374" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" id="ep"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="movie" value="http://i.cdn.turner.com/cnn/.element/apps/cvp/3.0/swf/cnn_416x234_embed.swf?context=embed_edition&videoId=world/2009/06/28/penhaul.lok.honduras.cnn" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#000000" /><embed src="http://i.cdn.turner.com/cnn/.element/apps/cvp/3.0/swf/cnn_416x234_embed.swf?context=embed_edition&videoId=world/2009/06/28/penhaul.lok.honduras.cnn" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" bgcolor="#000000" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="416" wmode="transparent" height="374"></embed></object>

This is a section of my code that goes and gets videos from any video site. What I’m having issues with is having it post a random title, that are all in a text file called titles.txt. What I’m wanting to accomplish is have my script go pull the video embed code, the duration, the tags, etc. Which all works fine until I get to the title part where it pulls locally from the server from the text file. I'm not an advance programmer so not sure if I am even approaching this correct way. Here is the code I have that is responsible for putting the title in. I appreciate your help.

$video = array(
‘user_id’ => $this->user_id,
‘status’ => $this->status,
‘site’ => ‘my site’,
‘id’ => ‘’,
‘embeddable’ => true,
‘url’ => ‘’,
‘titles’ => ‘’,
‘title’ => ‘’,
‘description’ => ‘’,
‘tags’ => ‘’,
‘category’ => ‘’,
‘thumbs’ => array(),
‘duration’ => 0,
‘embed’ => ‘’
);

function random_title ()
{
$titles = file (“titles.txt”, FILE_IGNORE_NEW_LINES);
$num = rand (0, intval (count ($titles) / 3)) * 3;
return ucwords($titles[$num]);
}

//Title
if(preg_match(’/title="(.*?)"/’, $match, $matches_title)) {
$video[‘title’] = random_title(). ’ - My site name’;
} else {
$this->errors[] = ‘Failed to get video title for ‘.$video[‘url’].’!’;
if (!$this->debug) continue;
else $debug_e[] = ‘TITLE’;
}

 

How could I from the varying URLs parse only the YouTube video ID?


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SwrawcORlp0&feature=player_embedded
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SwrawcORlp0&feature=popular

How can I from the URLs above only extract the id into a variable $url

Thanks, df
