Play youtube video In App in android - android

In my android application I want to play youtube video in App, not in the default browser. I am trying this for the last some days. Previously I played the youtube video using the following code :
http://code.google.com/p/android-youtube-player/downloads/list
But now this code is not working. It shows "Sorry, this video cannot be played." I have tried all the possible solution mentioned in the different forum for this error. But could not be able to play the video.
That's why I am trying to find out another way to play the video in app. I have tried the RTSP link of a youtube video , it is playing the 3gp video file, but video quality is very poor. This is not acceptable.
I am really fade up to find out good solution to play youtube video in app.
Please help. Any good suggestion is always welcome.

Playing YouTube videos in Android was made very simple with the release of this library: https://developers.google.com/youtube/android/player/. The Developer Guide on that page is a good resource on how to use this library. They also provide sample code on how to use the functionality provided by the library. The steps are basically:
Get a developer key
Download the library and include it in your project
Use the library to play videos (hint. use the YouTubePlayerView as a first step)
Please post again if you have any questions or need any code examples.


I play youtube video in videoview and I also face problem regarding video result.
Here some topics regarding this. One my friend suggest me use embeded URL instead of rtsp URL. Its give good result. For Example embeded URL example and how to implement it.

Exoplayer for Youtube videos

My goal is to play a Youtube video in an application.
Youtube Player API is not what I want since there could be overlays in front of the video.
Webviews are terrible for performances and doesn't allow autoplay.
Exoplayer seems good but most of their doc is broken (links), incredibly complex for a very simple task, and doesn't provide working demos (their demo crashes...). Also, they don't explain how to properly get the DASH of a youtube URL.
So, is there a way to make Exoplayer work easily and get DASH info of any youtube link like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFAnn2j4iB0 ?
I use http://www.youtube.com/get_video_info?&video_id=yFAnn2j4iB0 and once decoded I get this DASH url : https://manifest.googlevideo.com/api/manifest/dash/ms/au/nh/IgpwcjAxLnBhcjAxKgkxMjcuMC4wLjE/mv/m/source/youtube/requiressl/yes/ip/165.225.76.70/fexp/3300108,3300130,3300161,3313267,9419451,9422596,9424135,9425619,9426788,9428398,9431012,9431719,9433096,9433223,9433946,9435526,9438327,9438662,9439580,9441225,9441737,9442156,9442424,9442426,9442680,9443322,9443345,9443768,9443913,9444207,9445344/ipbits/0/as/fmp4_audio_clear,webm_audio_clear,webm2_audio_clear,fmp4_sd_hd_clear,webm2_sd_hd_clear/sparams/as,hfr,id,initcwndbps,ip,ipbits,itag,mm,mn,ms,mv,nh,pl,playback_host,requiressl,source,expire/pl/23/id/c850279f68f8881d/mn/sn-25g7snee/mm/31/hfr/1/playback_host/r18---sn-25g7snee.googlevideo.com/itag/0/mt/1471872416/sver/3/key/yt6/initcwndbps/9365000/expire/1471894709/upn/w1CO218TeQA/s/11395DF1FE7737DA54826F38EE1C61D28B46619DC.9724AB654EE916E8B5C5F687BE3504E4799BA939933
But it doesn't start buffing in the Exoplayer Demo. Is this DASH correct ? Does anyone of you use ExoPlayer in their app ?
Doc I found so far :
How to play youtube video in ExoPlayer in Android?
https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/tree/release-v1/demo_ext (but it crashes ><)

If your goal is to play YouTube videos then use YouTube Android Player API. You need to provide direct URL to Exoplayer.

I successfully run the demo app. you can follow the guide at https://google.github.io/ExoPlayer/demo-application.html and clone the project on github https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer.git
a little note though, it is the most complex project I've ever seen, and need the longest time I ever experienced to build its gradle.
after gradle build complete, you just need to run the demo project.

Unity, get youtube url through a web view and play the video in unity

I need a webview in unity where I can search for youtube videos. If I have found the right video I need to copy the URL. In Unity I need to find a way to play that video through my Easy Movie Texture plugin, so I need to play the video on a plane.
First of all, I do not know how a webview can communicate with unity, so that I can get the current URL. For example I would use Prime31 for my webview. Second of all, I have no idea how I can get the streaming URL / .mp4 of a youtube video.
Maybe some has an idea how to accomplish this?
I work with the latest Unity 5.3
Thanks

Dailymotion Video in listview Android

How do I show the list of "DAILYMOTION" videos in android?
Also how do I play them?
I am able to play single video, but I now want to show more than 25 videos in a list.
How can I do this?

This is more works than supposed to be on a simple stackoverflow question!
You can:
list videos using Dailymotion API (documentation here https://developer.dailymotion.com/api)
and then play them using the Dailymotion video player. Here you'll find the documentation about the Android Player SDK: https://developer.dailymotion.com/tools/sdks#sdk-android that is a thin wrapper around a WebView that allows to easily embed Dailymotion videos into your Android application. You can check the source code, documentation and sample app on the GitHub repo: https://github.com/dailymotion/dailymotion-sdk-android/tree/master.
There even is a sample app that may help you get started! https://github.com/dailymotion/dailymotion-sdk-android/tree/master/SampleApp

The most adaptable way to play YouTube Video in android application

I did google about this question and I found 4 possible ways to do it:
play the video with the following manner:
startActivity(newIntent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,Uri.parse(uri)));
Get the RTSP link and play the video with VideoView
play the video using Flash
Using HTML5 iframe
I have an android 4.0 device and I am able to play YouTube videos using the first three methods. My question is: which method is the most adaptable to different version. If the answer is using HTML5, how can I do it. Thank you very much for your time.

The most allround way of doing it to open it with a URI parse. There is also a way of forcing the YouTube app to be called(sorry I think I read it someplace but I do not remember how) and show the video there. This means you do not get the option to chose to open the video in the browser.
The rest of the alternatives are only supported by some devices. (Flash is outdated, HTML5 is not supported on most devices). I you are going to do something else then using the buildt-in YouTube app I would recomend RTSP as the best option.
