    flash error-handling google-chrome-extension youtube-javascript-api
    I’ve been working on a Google Chrome extension for a while now. I’ve noticed that Flash has been crashing quite commonly lately and I would like to have my extension gracefully recover from such an event.I found a post talking about testing a Flash element directly, but I am using YouTube’s iFrame API. When I try to call SetVariable on the iFrame, not surprisingly, it always fails.Any ideas on other ways I could detect my player having crashed so that I may respond accordingly?

    I’m newbie at chrome extension. I’m making chrome extension that play youtube chromeless player.It worked on chrome web browser. But, it isn’t working on chrome extension.I tested local .swf file. That is worked on chrome extension.I think, chrome extension can’t call onYouTubePlayerReady().So I called window.onYouTubePlayerReady() after swfobject.embedSWF(). But, it isn’t worked at ytplayer.loadVideoById(“xa8TBfPw3u0”, 0); with error message.The error message was Uncaught TypeError: Object #<

    javascript jquery api scope youtube-javascript-api
    I’ve got following code, that is suppose to pause Slidedeck’s autoscroll whenever there is a mouseover event. For mouseout event, the autoscroll should resume working unless the youtobe video in the Slidedeck is currently playing or buffering. I got it working fine if there wasn’t the condition for the Youtube video. I believe there’s a problem with the scope for the object player, but can’t work it out, how to fix this problem.The error I get in console on mouseout is:Uncaught TypeError: Object

    There is a Youtube chromeless Javascript player in demo. Unless user clicks playlist pictures below player, title and time don’t shown. To show title and time user has to click some playlist image or has to wait cahanging to the next video. I want title and time to be written without clicking anything after first video autoload. There might be a problem javascript function order. Nothing comes to my mind apart from this.All codes are below to help next people in future<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “-

    I’m trying to send the metadata for the about-to-be uploaded video to Youtube according to the documentation by way of a POST request. However, I’m having some trouble understanding completely what to do. My questions are how exactly do I sent the parameters and the ATOM XML entry with the actual metadata at the same time? How do I figure out the Content-Length? And is there an easy way to see if my POST request matches the example given in the Youtube documentation? Here’s what I have so far. T

    I am attempting to render the image being displayed inside of YouTube’s HTML5 <video> on a <canvas> located outside of the <iframe>, but on a page created by my extension. I understand that there are cross-origin security policies which come into play here. I am curious if the elevated privileges of a Google Chrome Extension change anything.If I have a <video> element on my own domain, I am able to pipe the image into a <canvas> like so:this.context = this.el.getCon

    Currently fetching the first video from a search on YouTube using the code below, but when docready is called, the ids are not set. The code does not wait for the ajax results to be returned, instead it continues and returns nothing.I’ve tried the async:false with the ajax thinking it might make it ‘wait’ but still nothing is returned. How would I fix this so all the ids will be set?$(document).ready(function () {docready(); });function docready() {var id1 = grabid(“cat”);var id2 = grabid(“dog”)

    I want to be able to control iframe based YouTube players. This players will be already in the HTML, but I want to control them via the JavaScript API.I’ve been reading the documentation for the iframe API which explain how to add a new video to the page with the API, and then control it with the YouTube player functions:var player; function onYouTubePlayerAPIReady() {player = new YT.Player(‘container’, {height: ‘390’,width: ‘640’,videoId: ‘u1zgFlCw8Aw’,events: {‘onReady’: onPlayerReady,’onState

    Which events are fired when a TrueView InStreams ad starts and ends?The YouTube iFrame API reference does not give any hint about it.I need to know when the real video starts.As these ads are shown “randomly”, I cannot make any test.One possible answer could be a way to systematically show these ads (and thus allow testing).

    If you open this site in chrome, it loads and runs ok but I tried loading it in firefox 19.0.2 and I keep getting a Script error asking me if I want to continue or stop. After doing some searching around I found the about:config setting, but that doesn’t help. I installed firebug and I see an error about “Permission denied to access property ‘toString'” but I have no clue as to what it wants or needs. And the weird part is that if you go to another page in the same site like this one it works

    I’m not able to get the correct video duration/length (in seconds) of a loaded/cued video via the getDuration() method of the YouTube Player API; the same method, however, returns a valid value once the video starts playing!
