use this sql statement to alter all youtube videos added with "from internet url" option to embeded videos:
declare @itemid int
declare @videopath nvarchar(200)
DECLARE mycursor CURSOR FOR
select top 1 ItemId,VideoPath from UVG_Video where charindex('.youtube.', lower(VideoPath)) > 1 order by itemid
OPEN mycursor
FETCH NEXT FROM mycursor INTO @itemid, @videopath
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
declare @videoId nvarchar(11)
declare @embedcode nvarchar(2000)
select @videoid=substring(@videopath, charindex('?v=',@videopath)+3, 11)
select @embedcode ='<div><object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/' + @videoid +'" /><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="flashVars" value="autoplay=1" /><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/' + @videoid +'" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="355" wmode="transparent" flashVars="autoplay=1"></embed></object></div>'
update UVG_Video set VideoPath = null, EmbedCode = @embedcode where ItemId = @ItemId
PRINT cast(@ItemId as varchar(10)) + ' - ' + @videoid + ' - ' + @embedcode
FETCH NEXT FROM mycursor INTO @itemid, @videopath
END
CLOSE mycursor
DEALLOCATE mycursor
if you want to have a different size you can change 425 and 355 to your prefered value.
it's recommended to make a backup before run it. |

| Hi, why can you just upgrade the codes and automatically wrap the youtube links and make them embed codes.? this will then allow users to upload links via link. |

| I concur - YouTube video URL linking works locally, but not on a production server. If that is the case, I would encourage BizModules to verify and explore this as a possible fix to the problem. |

VinceLL VinceLL:
If your browser client and IIS server are on same computer(this is true when you try it on localhost). the youtube feature still works.
but when you deploy it to a remote computer, it won't work. |

This doesn't mean a fix can be work out.
The problem is, the video url grabed by server side code is deeply related to your IP address.
When the server side code pass the video url to the flash client, the flash client will try to load the video. if the client computer have same IP address as the server side code, then the video url is good.
But if the client computer have a different IP address, the video url will not work.
It seems there is a possible fix for this problem - to grab the video url inside the flash client, but this can't be done due to a flash security issue. I already tried that. |

=============
If you would like to have this feature you can manually create a "trigger" in database to do this job, if should not be difficult if you have a sql developer. |

| you can also make change on your code behind.. make sure to set all the parameters on your resx file so you don't have to keep compiling everytime you make a change.. but it does work.. thanks |

Hi,
All our current youtube videos are not playing, instead of converting the youtube videos into embed links, which shows annotations, youtube logo etc. We would like them to stream from our server itself.
Is there some mechanism for changing the source of the videos from youtube to our web server? |

I belive it can't be done. it's handled by youtube player.

it can't be done too, otherwise anybody else can copy the contents of youtube. |

I wrote some code to read the UVG_Videos VideoPath for non-embedded video and playing it in a LightBox. See the example below. I am reading the Top 20 Videos where the VideoPath has YouTube in it and is not null.

Every once in a while the YouTube logo pops up.

I've read this thread and I am more confused than ever. I am not a technical person and any thought of messing with the SQL server scares me.
But, I believe the bottom line is this -- Ultra Video Gallery will no longer play any video posted to YouTube.
It does not appear that the problem can be fixed because YouTube has changed the way it codes the videos.
Some people are able to get YouTube videos to play on their site, but only if they go through an elaborate process of encoding the videos. But, even then, the embedded videos will not work in the compact player -- which we have on our home page.
For us non-technical people, if we have any uploaded videos from YouTube on our website, they will no longer work. Attempting to post new videos will fail.
Consequently, the Ultra Video Gallery module has been rendered useless and we must look for other options.
Is that what I am understanding? |

not sure what the outcome of this thread is but it doesnt seem to be working.
I downloaded the 3.2.1 copies over the dll and nothing. I have no idea what the rest of the thread is about but it would be great to get this working |

My experience is that this broke earlier this month.
I installed the latest update and it immediately fixed my YouTube playback issues.
I am not really tracking on the SQL recommendation because my problem was resolved with the latest version.
BTW, I actually noticed this problem because I use another set of players to play this same content outside of the DNN installation. Those players broker too and I had to search for their replacements.

| I updated to 3.2.1 and my videos don't play. I can get them to play in my player. I think a different modified player will work for everyone in UVG. Most of the YouTube data is now grabbed from the page cache. I have successfully, programmatically downloaded YT videos. I am working on the code now. Whether I can legally share it or not is another question. Also you can pass parameters on the YT querystrings to suppress annotations, call only HD, suppress relevant videos from showing etc. |
