Youtube API changed about android-youtube-player HOT 30 OPEN

Same here!

I've been using the same code for 3-4 months now without any problems and 
didn't change anything to the code. Since a few days i'm getting the "Error 
(1,-1004)" error.

I've been having trouble for a few days now. I get the error message "this 
video can't be played".

fix:

VideoStream.java (Line: 30)
change: mUrl = lArgMap.get("url");
to:  mUrl = lArgMap.get("url") + "&signature=" + lArgMap.get("sig");

Adding the signature parameter to mUrl worked a few days ago (I used it in my 
own app) but it does not work anymore, so we will all have to keep digging.

Hi, the above fix did not work for me. (mUrl = lArgMap.get("url") + 
"&signature=" + lArgMap.get("sig");)

guys i think the fix is woking, just re-test it again to make sure:

mUrl = lArgMap.get("url")+ "&signature=" + lArgMap.get("sig");

Retested. Definitely not working for me. Did it work for you?

Not working for me too.

I've tested above solution, its working for me!!
Thanks!

i think it is under youtubeutility.java
Do we have to install the latest version of youtube activity ?

sorry its VideoStream.java

i'm getting a 1,403 error, and i can't play the video.

for people saying that it does not work, did you tried below fix:

go to class: VideoStream.java
change:       mUrl = lArgMap.get("url");
to:               mUrl = lArgMap.get("url")+ "&signature=" + lArgMap.get("sig");

If yes what is your device and what is your country ... because it is work with 
me.  

my country is the netherlands, and i'm using a samsung galaxy S2, and i've 
tried chaning the code but it didn't help

UK, Galaxy S2 same problem. Updated code as it says. Same issue. For those whom 
it worked for, can you not upload your version for us to try?

I had to make a few additional fixes to correct the URL. I changed 
VideoStream:26:

From:
    lArgMap.put(lArgValStrArr[0], lArgValStrArr[1]);

To:
    String value = lArgValStrArr[1];
    if (value.startsWith("http")) {
        value = value.replace("---", ".");
        value = URLDecoder.decode(value);
    }
    lArgMap.put(lArgValStrArr[0], value);

As mentioned above, the signature is also required on line 30:

From:
    mUrl = lArgMap.get("url");

To:
    mUrl = lArgMap.get("url") + "&signature=" + lArgMap.get("sig");

This appeared to work on all devices; I tested from 2.3 up.

still not working

this is my videostream:

/**
     * Construct a video stream from one of the strings obtained 
     *  from the "url_encoded_fmt_stream_map" parameter if the video_info 
     * @param pStreamStr - one of the strings from "url_encoded_fmt_stream_map"
     */
    public VideoStream(String pStreamStr){
        String[] lArgs=pStreamStr.split("&");
        Map<String,String> lArgMap = new HashMap<String, String>();
        for(int i=0; i<lArgs.length; i++){
            String[] lArgValStrArr = lArgs[i].split("=");
            if(lArgValStrArr != null){
                if(lArgValStrArr.length >= 2){
                    String value = lArgValStrArr[1];
                    if (value.startsWith("http")) {
                        value = value.replace("---", ".");
                        value = URLDecoder.decode(value);
                    }
                    lArgMap.put(lArgValStrArr[0], value);
                }
            }
        }
        mUrl = lArgMap.get("url") + "&signature=" + lArgMap.get("sig");
    }
    public String getUrl(){
        return mUrl;
    }
}
my string:

 Uri uri = Uri.parse(URL);
          String videoId = uri.getQueryParameter("v");
          Intent lVideoIntentd = new Intent(null, Uri.parse("ytv://"+videoId), this, OpenYouTubePlayerActivity.class);
          startActivity(lVideoIntentd);
         }

my URL String: public static final String url = 
"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MkT2wW3-1jQ";


can anyone help?

I have an HTC EVO and have no problem playing the videos.
I recently got a Samsung Galaxy S iii and videos can't be played when WiFi is 
off and using 3G. However, when WiFi is connected, then it works!! Anyone with 
same issue and suggestion on how to fix??

OpenYotubeActivity.java  needs to be corresponded to LTE.

I used a customized Activity class  in order to correspond LTE network type as 
follows.

-------  OpenYotubeActivity.QueryYouTubeTask#doInBackground(YouTubeId... 
pParams)   ---------

        WifiManager lWifiManager = (WifiManager) cxt.getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE);
        TelephonyManager lTelephonyManager = (TelephonyManager) cxt.getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);

        ////////////////////////////
        // if we have a fast connection (wifi or 3g), then we'll get a high quality YouTube video
        if( (lWifiManager.isWifiEnabled() && lWifiManager.getConnectionInfo() != null && lWifiManager.getConnectionInfo().getIpAddress() != 0) ||
                ( (lTelephonyManager.getNetworkType() == TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_UMTS ||

                /* icky... using literals to make backwards compatible with 1.5 and 1.6 */      
                lTelephonyManager.getNetworkType() == 9 /*HSUPA*/  ||
                lTelephonyManager.getNetworkType() == 10 /*HSPA*/  ||
                lTelephonyManager.getNetworkType() == 8 /*HSDPA*/  ||
                lTelephonyManager.getNetworkType() == 5 /*EVDO_0*/  ||
                lTelephonyManager.getNetworkType() == 6 /*EVDO A*/  ||
                lTelephonyManager.getNetworkType() == 13 /*LTE*/)           // <--- Add!!

                && lTelephonyManager.getDataState() == TelephonyManager.DATA_CONNECTED) 
                ){
            lYouTubeFmtQuality = "18";
