I am aware that many proxy servers allow visitors to go to youtube and watch all of the videos there. I was wondering if anyone here has used the or may know how to allow my visitor (in theory) to go to youtube and watch all of the videos.
I can select certain videos and have them play on my site index or place of choice, but I only want it to swap youtubes flv player with the Longtail JW FLV player with viral and yt plugins.
Thanks for reading! |

You could look up how YouTube works, perhaps?
OR... OR!
You could check out how the video downloaders work.
Either is good.

Yes, but I do not wish to download the videos from the site that is hosting them. Sure that may be leeching but I do not wish to make a public proxy server. Maybe sometime down the road.
Could I add some for of PHP get statement? For example something along the lines of...
$a=**iddk***
www.youtube.com/get_video.php?video_id=".$a-&-.flv
Anything close to realistic? Well I need to do more research.

No, no...
If I;m not much mistaken, the videos aren't embedded into the player, that would be too much work, and too much wasted space.
See where I'm going?

You are implying that the videos are embedded into the site, youtube, and I would need to use a get method to pull the video id. But I only want to swap flv players. Hmm. Guess I am not seeing your hint after all. |

The videos (probably) are stored as plain FLV files, outside the player...
