Using the Oreilly sample app - YouTube api call - playlist IDs changed?

[phishee]

I was wondering if anybody else had run into the issue where it appears that Google has changed the way the API call to list videos from a playlist. It appears the playlistID which is used in the Oreilly example is no longer valid - i.e.:

from: VideoList.js
url: 'http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/playlists/' + this.config.playlistId + '?v=2&alt=jsonc'

from: app.js
playlistId: '2737D508F656CCF8'

It appear that now YouTube playlistIds look like this:
http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list...g&feature=plcp

Where the ID = FLSYG0DaTjEpo9LlE-f_1L1g

So, is there a way to still use the oreilly example to pull in video playlists or has someone been able to modify the code to use new updated IDs? Or is there a better, streamlined way to bring in YouTube channel videos with respective thumbnails?

Thanks in advance for all help,

Brandon

The oreilly app is working for me.

Yes, it is working great for me by default. But, how would I utilize my own playlist when the playlistID format seems to have changed? Plug the playlistID (FLSYG0DaTjEpo9LlE-f_1L1g) into the app.js and you will see it does not pull the channel playlist in at all

Any other suggestions,

Ok all - I think I answered my own questions after a bit of experimentation. For future reference, if you go ahead and query the user's playlist via the API like:

https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/.../playlists?v=2

You will get a feed of that user's playlists. If you mouse over the link to each respective playlist you will be able to retrieve something like this:

https://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=2731FCB3541DE1C3

The bold portion of the URL is the playlistID -

Hope that helps others - Brandon

I tried both URL configurations, and nothing came back.

playlistId: 'PL4FCA0BEFABE6FA65'

Working query: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list...5&feature=plcp

In the browser the link works,

http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/p...sonP.callback2


In the Oreilly app, my playlistID returns:


Ext.data.JsonP.callback2({"apiVersion":"2.1","error":{"code":404,"message":"Playlist not found.","errors":[{"domain":"GData","code":"ResourceNotFoundException","internalReason":"Playlist not found."}]}});Any help is appreciated.
