Hi there,
I would like to know how to create a huge playlist from many separate YouTube Playlists - have a look at this:
http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/stan ... y_featured
The feed above will play in a Flash player such as JW player (http://www.longtailvideo.com/support/jw ... xample=213)
Now have a look at this:
http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p ... 756912D7CB
...That's one of my playlists - it is limited to a certain amount of videos, I can play it in JW but it will only show a maximum of 25-50 videos.
Now, let's say I want to create a huge playlist with hundreds or thousand of entries from many shorter ones such as the last one - they still need to be in a format that plays in JW - I've been trying to do this for quite a while...
I was discussing this with another fella and he suggested that I should "use a simple serverside PHP script to request 10,000 playlists of 50 items each" and his solution seemed to almost work but in the end it sort of broke, possibly due to some recent changes on YT's side (you can compare this question with a previous thread on the JW forum: http://www.longtailvideo.com/support/fo ... ment-82026)
If anyone knows how to do this, please help.
Kind regards
Pongy
