I have a self hosted wordpress site. I have few posts with embedded mp3 files. I am using yahoo web player currently. It puts a little play icon in front of all the mp3 files. Now, if the user clicks on one of the play icon, it loads the playlist with all the mp3 files in that page/post.
Is it possible to let the user pick the songs that they want to add to the playlist?
I am thinking of placing a little '+' icon for all the mp3 files and hoping that Yahoo has the necessary provision in the API.
Does anyone know a place where i can get the details on the API? Google search was not of much help in this.
Thank you.
There is some level of customization available, but might not be enough for the changes you're looking for.
Here is the official documentation: http://webplayer.yahoo.com/docs/

I am still relatively new to these topics.
I am programming my app in Flutter and I can already use Flutter to play a foreign video from Youtube in the app.
I want to upload in Youtube all my video resources as private to be able to display them in my app.
Is there any documentation on how to do this? What are the costs per request?
Is Youtube even right for such a mobile app?`
I was going to use Firebase cloud storage, but think that can get very expensive once I release the app.
What other options would I have?
This question isn't really suitable for StackOverflow, since it's basically just asking whether you can use YouTube.
That being said, as long as you don't violate the T&C of YouTube and you're fine with storing all your videos on their platform, yes, you can do this. Using YouTube this way is free as of now. But note that there is a difference between "private" and "unlisted".
You can create a profile on youtube, upload as many videos as you want and list them as unlisted, meaning you can only find the video if you have the link, then in your app link the vides to whatever selection method you have. so ex I have a button when clicked launches a specific unlisted youtube url link and plays the video.
It would be the same as if someone was searching your video publicly and playing it, both are free.
I want something similar to this:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/video-download-ibolt-downloader/id481606548?mt=8
I want to detect there is any video in web page and want to download that stream into iphone device.
In console media players tells that it is setting the movie path to some URL. There must be a way to download stream and save in local device.
P.S: I know how to download a video file. I want it using online streaming or from sites which does not provide a download link.
P.S++: Video download from HTML + UIWebView is not helpful.
Thanks.
The post is old but it might be worth to clear this
Those apps are probably using undocumented API. Apple doesn't accept private API when apps are submitted to the app store, however they might not be looking for usage of undocumented notifications
You can find more information in here and here
Those apps show you the download button after you click video, and after the video starts. So probably they are listening for media playback notifications and get the url from MPMoviePlayer instance.
By the way, apple doesn't allow apps that download videos from youtube. There might be some apps on the app store that does that, but I recently got rejected because of this. It might not be worth the hassle, as most big video streaming websites don't want people downloading their videos and work hard to make sure that they don't.
I'm using source code from apple (SquareCam) and I would like to figure out how I can use the photos taken in that app and see them in a library (like the photos app) without having all the other photos the user has taken elsewhere like in the regular camera.
I'm not too great at making apps yet so I'm pretty noobish.
I've gotten as far as opening the photo library but nothing else. no viewing individual photos or the options such as emailing, messaging and what not.
Don't think you can do that. It either all photos or no photos...
You can of course save the photo in your own documents directory and write your own photo viewer - there's quite some code and frameworks around that do most of the job, see e.g. the answers to this so question:
Open source photo viewer for IPhone
I'm working on an app for a client and the client wants absolutely everything to be shareable (using sharekit). One of the views that the client wants is a photo gallery that can be easily updated and viewed. I've looked around at folks who have done this and I particularly like the way the Obama 2012 app does it using flickr. This brings me to the question, I'm trying to use the flickr api to display a photo gallery that will allow sharekit to share the url to the image but am hitting a brick wall. I've searched for a few days now and haven't found a tutorial that shows a working example in the way I need it, if anyone has done something similar or knows a good tutorial that would be greatly appreciated.
Download the list of images using the Flickr API, and asynchronously add them to a UIScrollView inside a UINavigationController with its back button as "back". Then add a UIToolBar which has the items 'Next' and 'Previous' (use images). That will give you the look of a photo gallery.
Also, I came across this which is basically what I told you to do, but open source: http://www.cocoacontrols.com/platforms/ios/controls/fgallery
I wrote a tutorial on building a media gallery using a UICollectionView. It populates from the user's photo library, but is definitely more extensible than using a 3rd party.

I want to retrieve uploaded videos from a certain youtube channel and I want to display the list in a UITableView. Then when user clicks on a row the video will play. Is this possible to do with youtube API?
Im new to iPhone app development and I need to get this done asap. Can some one provide some code samples or point me in the right direction. I cant find much useful stuff on the net
