Creates Posts from playlist but videos don’t work

This is the list we use

I looked at the code of the new posts and it has a youtube-player class tag, we stopped using youtube class tags years ago, we just put a videos youtube url inside [embed]url[/embed] in wp now and it plays fine.

Also the call string is huge that your program is generating

Example

<iframe class=”youtube-player” type=”text/html” width=”100%” height=”400″ src=”//www.youtube.com/embed/UEx6aF9qMnpJWGF4anZhbG50TmJYNHVjdDRXbTBleDdxeC41MzY4MzcwOUFFRUU3QzEx” allowfullscreen frameborder=”0″>
</iframe>

So if you just grep the videos normal url and wrap it inside [embed]

Then the videos will work

then if you could figure out how to drop the title of the video into header tags such as <title> and duplicate the title with a user data string like site name for <description> you would have a commercially viable product that aggregators would drool over.

LOL

That’s the main issue all aggregation plugin’s have, they don’t do the simple SEO work of creating header tags and the video titles are natuarl for <header> and the rule for description is do not just duplicate header so adding a user data string to header fixes the no dupe tag issue of SEO, as far as keywords, SE’s don’t need them now but headers and descriptions are a big part of SEO still.

Anyway, that’s he bug we have, first play list we created inside a brand account and the api key generated a long embed string that chokes, instead of a normal embed address.

The error page is going to nonsense about streaming

We tried the pages with all types of situations, reboot machine 1 browser 1 window and still the video is dead

When you look at how long the embed key is, that’s the problem IMO

I’ve never seen keys that long

Like I said if you can just put the url of the video inside simple EMBED tags, there’s no need to even use a key generator, I guess google still wants you to use an api key to grep lots of data, but the video post can just dump the url of the video inside embed and bingo it will work fine

Oh, the youtube title is creating title tags at least, in both WP and our SEO plugin, only thing it doesn’t have is description and keywords which we like to use

I’ll look at the meta tag section to see if putting something for description in it will help add to description title plus site name plus keyword, as it is the titles are not generating video title with site name to make them unique
