I have a doubt about the ability to integrate youtube to my mobile application.
The mobile application should have a button for loading (by the user) video directly on youtube, on a dedicated channel. This channel will be created from my client. There is the possibility, through the bees, to integrate video upload directly to a specific youtube channel?
it's for android application.
Thanks a lot for the answer.
The most straightforward way to upload a video to YouTube in an Android application is to use the Intent exposed by the YouTube application. There's examples of doing this in other Stack Overflow questions, e.g. android youtube upload using intent
That being said, I wanted to point out that uploading videos into a single "master" account (which you seem to want to do, based on your question) isn't a good idea. This blog post explains why that is in more detail: http://apiblog.youtube.com/2012/02/video-uploads-from-your-sites-community.html

I'm building an Android app that works similar to Udacity app.
My requirements
All my videos should only be viewed via the app.
I will be using my own video player inside the app, and I want the
option to choose quality of video (Like in YouTube app)
Offline download option
Considering these requirements, how would I want to host the videos?
I'm familiar with the Android app side of things, but the rest I know nothing.
Did 3 hours of googling before posting this question here, and found out udemy is using AWS and Brightcove.
Can anybody explain the procedure of hosting and encoding videos for my requirements.
Firstly, big organizations like Udemy, Coursera and Udacity design and develop their own video encoding tool to show in the application. Udacity, for instance, has two modes - YouTube and their own player which the user can set based on their preference.
You can't develop your own codec or player in a jiffy, it needs a lot of dedication and more work which one person cannot develop in days.
For your query, you can use ExoPlayer, YouTube Embed, Vimeo Player, related kinds of open source or publically available players.
I am planning on developing an app similar to Snaptube, where a user can search and stream videos on the app just like YouTube. The question is, does YouTube allow for such applications, and how would I go about it in terms of the searching functionality since most tutorials show how just to play videos embedded to the app through a link in methods such as recycler view or web view? Hope I am clear as can be, thanks.
Youtube as an API that is specifically designed to search Videos on their plattform. You can retrieve the found videos and embedd them in your app, so the user can watch the content. YouTube allows such applications.
See https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/search/list for an API (JAVA) Example of how to search Videos on Youtube. There are Android Libraries that help you with that. They can be found here https://developers.google.com/youtube/android/player/downloads/ and here https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/quickstart/android.
I am developing an IOS/Andriod app where I want my users to be able to upload videos - these videos will later be used by the app. Since I don't want to spend a lot of money on data storage I was thinking of using YouTube as the placeholder of the videos.
Is is scenario supported by YouTube?
Are there any limitations for me to consider regarding this scenario?
Is it OK if my app uses only one YouTube account - which my app users share and use when they upload a video? Or do my app users I have to use a personal YouTube account to upload the videos?
Anything else I should think of which I might be missing here?
Thanks

I am going to answer you about android because I know about how you can achieve this in Android apps.
Here's a simple step by step to learn how you can integrate Youtube in your android application. for doing this You will need to download the client libraries written in java. Download the library here
This scenario is supported by Youtube
It will be OK to use only 1 youtube account to upload videos to Youtube. but all users have to share that account
One thing you can consider to make sure not to upload very large files (more than 100MB). although it will upload but it can take much time.
It is possible to upload capture/gallery videos on your own channels, not possible to use like all users data storage.
I am developing a video recorder in android. It is a requirement that a user should be able to share/upload this video to his/her facebook account or Youtube account.
Do i need to use facebook and youtube APIs for this purpose or is there any easier way to share it from android phone to Internet.
It maybe a silly question but take me as a immature and new to programming world.

There are two different approaches:
1) Upload to YouTube via Data API then get the video id and send the link to Facebook using Facebook API.
(If you want your video available outside FB and reach to larger audience)
2) Upload to Facebook directly with Facebook API. (If you want to have your video straight to FB and share it only in FB.)
Yeah its possible talhamalik
You have use the Intent.ACTION_SEND, and the system will display a list of applications (on the device) where you can share. This website explains how:

In my application I need to upload a video to youtube from the gallery or a recording. I read
http://code.google.com/apis/youtube/2.0/developers_guide_protocol.html#Uploading_Videos
and i have only youtube email account....
Which of the three approaches (browser based,direct,resumable) should I use?
and there are any source code??
You're going to need to use Direct Uploading because (I'm assuming) you're going to be receiving which video to upload via and Intent. Here's a link to a project that demonstrates how to (among other things) directly upload to youtube from android. It should be exactly what you need to get started. I think the code you're looking for can be found here.
