Hi Is it possible to have a playlist that contains youtube vidoes and uploaded videos in a xml playlist at all?

i could get the flv locations from youtube but I would rather find another way so i can keep the terms and condition correct

@weedee - If you want to pass in uploads to your account as a playlist, use this as the file flashvar - http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/your_username/uploads

If you want to make a playlist of specific youtube files, you can do it like this:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<playlist version='1' xmlns='http://xspf.org/ns/0/'>
  <trackList>

thanks ethan I was stupid I got it working now I'm using a get thumbnail code to generate a location of the thumb nail as well.

I've got it so i have a self generateing playlist xml file
with the playlist sitting on a tabular system easy for people to swap play lists

when i have finished all the code I'll post a link so other pp can just copy all the code
for the player files but i can't put up the asp.net stuff though

on a sepertate note have you guy's had a chance to look at embed function in the viral player?

@weedee - np! Please post the code when you can, as it will help others in the LongTail Support Community :)

Regarding the Viral plugin, what about the embed function are you talking about?
