Due to enormous efforts of @atrain53 @susan , our first plugin is now in plugin market,it is a plugin to stream hq videos in your phone,without the youtube app or any other app.It is based on youtube api.You will surely love it.It is a boon for all those people who have video tutorial apps.Enjoy. **You can add video image** **You can add video description** **Please follow the documentation properly.**

It looks like a great addition to the plugin market, and nice to see an Android app out there! Great Work! Cheers! -- Smug

Thanks..!Do try it if you need it

That 'more information' text you have had to write with the disclaimer is another reason why I would rather pull my own arm off and hit myself in the face with it when it comes to Android. the plugin looks sweet any chance of a video clip to see how it functions live.

Ok will record it on a working on phone and upload within an hour

Ta la it's good to see how it works in a video, it's a good sales tip.

I have purchased this plugin and am currently testing it. It does the job as advertised, however: Where should I put the file screen_sp_youtube_android.xml ? The documentation does not state exactly where to put it. I do not see the image from the Video Image File Name option. Maybe the above mentioned xml files is missing? There is an option Description Font Color, to choose the color of the font that explains what the video will be. The default layout is blank screen, and the chosen font is white, so whatever you write in there, you won't see it, probably. Only when I changed the color of the font, did I realize what this option was supposed to do. There should be a picture showing what each option does. The plugin will play videos through streaming, as advertised. I have found at least one video which will not play, but that may be for various reasons beyond this plugin as such. When the plugin starts, it will show a button Play Video and will not play until you tap it. For me, this is not a preferred behavior of a video plugin. The user will already know from the option of a menu that a video should be played, so why force it to tap once more? I know there may be a situation where this is preferable, so there should be an option to show the play button and wait, or just start the video immediately. The documentation is minimal. BuzzTouch should force the plugin makers to show their wares through videos and images. Otherwise, one cannot be sure as to what is offered and what will the plugin look like once you buy it.

Screen_sp_youtube will be placed automatically at place

Yes it is, so please disregard my point about Screen_sp_youtube.

About the rest hold on a second m coming online..some videos wont play cause they are not officialy supported on mobile..for the rest have a quick chat with me suvinay123 at gmail dot com.

That's OK, we know YouTube has its own share of problems.

and the fact that you have to click on the screen again for the play buttons to come its by default in the youtube api..even if you play the video from youtube app,the same thing will happen

Great job @SuVinay Pawa! LA

Hey La thanks.! Don't forget to mention atrain53 also,he is the guy behind making this dream a reality

Anxious to start using it myself! Thanks for bringing this code to my attention SuVinay, it works really slick and hopefully will make using YouTube vids in Android apps a lot easier for everyone. Remember - if you are adding this plug-in to an EXISTING project it is different than if you are downloading a new source code package. The difference is that the ACTIVITY won't be in your AndroindManifest.xml file of your existing code, you have to add it. So if you download a full app source code with this plug-in installed in your control panel it will already be present. If you are adding this source code to an existing project source code you will need to add this entry to your Activity elements in your AndroindManifest.xml <activity android:name=".Sp_youtube_android" android:label="@string/app_name" android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation"></activity> (notice that all the plug-ins you have installed are listed there) Where to copy files when adding to existing project: the .java file goes in your com/src the .xml file goes in your res/layout the .jar goes in your libs folder (which may or may not exist in your project. if you've grabbed new source code since the start of the year - this folder is likely part of your project and has a gcm.jar file in there already).

@SuVinay Pawa, I've been wanting to make an iOS YouTube plugin for some time now. We could try to get one made together as an iOS version of the plugin!

Congratulations, SuVinay! I tested this plugin on 4 devices ranging from 2.3 to 4.2. It worked slick on all of them.

Thankyou @susan..!

> I do not see the image from the Video Image File Name option. Does any one else have this problem?

did you add the image in your project,is the name in control panel same as the project..if yes which devices are you using to test the plugin..

Video Images go in the same place all images for Android projects go: res/drawable make sure you COPY the image in there and then Clean/Build your project. If you have referenced it properly in the Control Panel it should display.

Nice work guys! Bought this yesterday and been having a play. Works well. I checked out the documentation on google code - a little change to the code can bring up the latest video added to a playlist, just change 'ytv' on line 140 to 'ytpl' to get auto updating video content! Nice. I bet you guys are looking at this for a future update? In the meantime I've just cloned the plugin to be able to use both options.

Thanks! Appreciate the testing. If it made it past your QC I knew we had a winner. Looked at the ytpl option and was going to possibly add that in next update. I thought there would be confusion if folks thought that would play the entire 'playlist' instead of just the 'latest' addition to the playlist. So figured we'd start with just a basic model for now :)

So, how to play a YouTube playlist? Would there be an enhancement to this plugin or would that require a totally new plugin? Either way, I'd like to have such a plugin now.

it wont play youtube playlist but recent videoinplaylist..plz rate d plugin..i can do that 4 u

Can you explain a bit further what you can do -- add the functionality to play a playlist? That would be awesome.

At least one third of videos that I have tried so far cannot be played with this plugin but can be played with the Launch Native App plugin. Both prompt the user for another tap on the screen, so it seems that the Launch Native App works better and is free. I really wanted this plugin and the entire YouTube Android API Player idea to be better than what we've had so far, but that does not seem to be the case. If I am missing something, I'd like to know what it is.

...

@Dusko, what logcat messages are you getting when you hit the play button?

This plugin sound great! I saw your video and I was wondering if the plugin will be able to launch videos from a link in a Custom URL Screen. I am still not able to watch video from my Android app. I am getting these errors: http://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?tid=1D40B14FF5018F8A35579F2&fid=1A0BC2DCA1F04DB67238B9A&sortColumn=FT.id&sortUpDown=DESC&currentPage=1 Note that I was able to fix the Wheel of Death error.

oh i am afraid it cant,you have to add a new screen with video link.

Ohh, what a pity! Thanks for your reply and hopefully this issue can be fixed soon or be added to your plugin. Have a good one.
