Hey Stilgar,

do you know why "loadVideoById" / "cueVideoById" does not work properly directly on YT?

movie player always return "We're sorry, this video is no longer available", playerState=3 and then I can't even get videoId.

this is part of code i have added for those functions.

Case "loadVideoById"
            $vArg1 = String($vArg1)
            $vArg2 = Number($vArg2)
            If $vArg2 = Default Or $vArg2 = "" Then $vArg2 = 0
            If IsString($vArg1) And IsNumber($vArg2) Then
                $sCommand = "loadVideoById('" & $vArg1 & "'," & $vArg2 &")"
            EndIf
        Case "cueVideoById"
            $vArg1 = String($vArg1)
            $vArg2 = Number($vArg2)
            If $vArg2 = Default Or $vArg2 = "" Then $vArg2 = 0
            If IsString($vArg1) And IsNumber($vArg2) Then
                $sCommand = 'cueVideoById("' & $vArg1 & '",' & $vArg2 &")"
            EndIf

nice work anyway!

Hello,

thank you!

That's an problem on YouTube, if you try this on an other page it works:

_FFTabAdd($Socket,"http://code.google.com/intl/de-DE/apis/youtube/js_example_1.html")
    _FF_YT($Socket,"loadVideoById","T-99HbI8zec",0,"myytplayer")

; FF.au3 V0.5:
    _FFTabAdd("http://code.google.com/intl/de-DE/apis/youtube/js_example_1.html")
    _FF_YT("loadVideoById","T-99HbI8zec",0,"myytplayer")

but I don't no where this limitation comes from.

With your permission I add your code to the next version.

[iLoveAU3]

that is right, it works fine except for yt page.

of course, feel free to use this code
