You made a beatiful script. thanks about that...
But how much time we need to wait about this?
i think it doesn't take so much time to create a solution for youtube...
Many people are using that and we are still waiting for...

Why bother putting youtube plugin in main release? Very high bandwidth usage for little gain. at least make sure people know its been included by default.

Also how do you deal with the regular updates needed for youtube compatiblity? New release of glype every time plugin needs update? or glype comes with outdated plugin and user must update youtube plugin separately? sounds like big waste of time.

Glype community made youtube plugin work for last few years. why change the system now? some peopple might want youtube but EVERYONE wants main script updated and maintaned. Very frustrating to see all superficial changes but ZERO progress.

please please please please focus on main script!!

I agree with you that the youtube plugin uses a huge amount of resources compared to the gain from it. However, the youtube plugin is very popular in the proxy community as it is a unique feature to have on a proxy.

I assure you that the main focus for glype is on the script, not on the youtube plugin, which is already availiable.

Save as /plugins/youtube.com.php

You also need to download FlowPlayer and make sure the config value in the plugin matches the location of the player.

I tried to upload a .zip of everything needed for easy installation but theres a retarded filesize limit of 97.5 KB on attachments.

If you or anyone else has made a YouTube plugin then feel free to post it here.

At a guess I'd say YouTube wouldn't be enabled by default on the next release, but I don't know.

Thanks for this jsmith.

I'm currently using forcemdt's horrific one but at least it works. I'll give this one a go tomorrow.

to anyone wanting to code a plugin..


find url parts

/&video_id\=([-a-zA-Z0-9_]{11})&/
/&t\=([-a-zA-Z0-9_]{43})%3D&/

add parts to this

'http://www.youtube.com/get_video?video_id='..'&t='..'='

replace this with your player code

'/'.preg_quote('<div id="watch-player" class="flash-player">','/').'.+'.preg_quote('<!-- end videoextra section -->','/').'/s'

[jsmith]

Both. ZIP with everything needed is attached. just extract all files to /plugins/ folder.
