YouTube Videos not Shutting Off

When I click on the Back button in my app after watching a YouTube video the video keeps playing in the background. Can I fix that somehow? Bruce

Hi Bruce, Check out David's response here: http://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?tid=253B557642580CEB3681EB7 He outlines the issue, and gives 3 options. Because you don't have access to the HTML powering Youtube's site, you'll have to go with either option 1 or 3. Also, because we no longer support v1.5 with patches / code "fixes", you'll have to rig up a solution yourself. I was unable to find one in the few minutes I looked for one. But that doesn't mean a solution isn't out there.

Well, after messing around a bit...well a lot more than a bit. I came up with a solution but it doesn't seem to work within my app. I used the commercial JW Player to be the player for my YouTube video only. I use the player on my own server basically. It works in the Custom HTML/plain text screen within BT. Yes, I can actually see and play the video in that screen but the video will not show up in my actual app. Here's the code I used: <iframe frameborder="0" height="270" scrolling="auto" src="http://sedonavideos.com/wp-content/uploads/jw-player-plugin-for-wordpress/player/player.swf?file=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcwzUZcbAjs" width="480"></iframe> Since I know nothing about code. Can anyone tell me why this won't work in my app but everywhere else? Thanks, Bruce
