I am trying to create a custom receiver app, which can play youtube videos using Iframe approach.
I am not able to find documentation to link the YouTube player to in the cast framework.
Note : I am using the CAF receiver framework.
Basically i want to link the Cast Receiver framework and the Youtube Iframe approach.
Any help would be really apprecaiated.

I wonder why YouTube can use autoplay feature without DOMException because when I tried to use <audio/> and <video/> tags with autoplay when loaded, It's show an DOMException error. I tried another way by set an attribute playInLines={true} and muted={true} it first, then called ref.current.play() and finally unmute it. Unfortunately, the browser isn't allow to play without user interact first by showing DOMException error.
When I using YouTube website, I noticed that YouTube won't autoplay until I switched back to YouTube tab, the video is autoplayed.
I searched from internet that YouTube website is built from the framework that load only the element that it needed, the other element won't refreshed.
Is YouTube a Single Page Application. If it isn't, when the user interacted first time on loaded, can the website play the videos forever? (not counted the AFK interruption (YouTube Premium user won't encountner this))
I don't have any knowledge but I guess that YouTube is using the both of <audio/> and <video/> tags.
I'm working on a Dialogflow Messenger integration and Im trying to see if there is any way of showing a You Tube video as one of the responses. As far as I can see there are no Rich Response Messages which support video.
The only way which springs to mind is to listen for df-response-received events and then add the embed code on the fly which seems hideous.
Does anyone have any idea how to achieve this?
I basically answered my own question here. I actually needed other UI elements so I built my own chat interface in React as a web component using direflow.io then I had full control over my UI :)
Any new components I want to display I can send as a custom payload as normal
I want to implement audio card like soundclound, basically when I made audio card it was working fine in web, but when I tried playing same card in mobile app but it was redirecting to web browser. so the thing is I want my audio to play in the app itself not to redirect and open a new page on web . let me know if anyone has some idea about implementation of the same.
The only way to implement an audio card for yourself would be to use Twitter's player card option. On mobile, that will end up redirecting to a browser.
The Soundcloud card is a special card implemented by Twitter, and is not generally available to other sites.
I would like to embed a YouTube player onto a page and show it to a user. If a foreground popup is used to host the player then, when the popup loses focus, the player is destroyed because the entire popup is removed.
I was hoping to use webKitNotifications.createHTMLNotification() and embed a player inside of an HTML Notification, but the spec has since been deprecated.
Just curious if anyone has any really crafty ideas on how to achieve this? I suspect hosting the YouTube player on a background page is a violation of YouTube's Terms of Service.
Looking through the dev. channel APIs:
http://developer.chrome.com/extensions/notifications.html - Too restrictive compared to HTML Notification. Doesn't look like I can embed a YouTube player inside one of these guys.
and... that's really about it.
Advice appreciated. Thanks.
You can simply have an HTML file in your extension for your page, for instance video.html, list it in your manifest under web_accesible_resources, and show it using:
chrome.tabs.create({url: chrome.extension.getURL('video.html')});
Inside your page you can use whatever method you want to embed the YouTube player.
The Youtube API will return videos that can be played no problem within the chromeless player. It also returns videos that cannot be played, - "Embedding disabled by request".
I don't want to retrieve videos that cannot be played, is there a way to request only videos that can be embedded?
cheers
Yes, there is a parameter exactly for this purpose. In this Url
http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos?q=connemara&orderby=published&max-results=10&v=2&format=5
the "format=5" parameter restricts the results to embeddable videos. See the 'Developer's Guide: Data API Protocol – API Query Parameters'.
