end of Youtube API V2 !!

7.x-2.x uses Google / Youtube API V3 and Google api php client library. the dev version is using the latest library version that requires composer to install.

7.x-1.x still uses API V2 and depends on the Zend Framework. check the readme file if you still want to use it...

Overview

This module provides a field to upload videos directly to Youtube and a formatter to display them. It uses the Google api php client to interface the Youtube API and implements the "browser upload method" so the video file never hits the Drupal file system. It saves storage and bandwidth and your users don't need a Youtube Account.
By this way you can use Youtube as a fully integrated solution to store and process the videos of your website!

Features

  • Youtube uploader field (acts as a file field, with "display" option)
  • Video formatter to display videos at predefined or custom size
  • Thumbnail formatter to display image preview of the video using an image style
  • Specific permission to allow users to edit video directly on youtube
  • link to refresh data (title and thumb) from Youtube
  • configure privacy, video delete on Youtube, description, category and tags on a site wide or field level
  • 7.x-2.x NEW: progress slider and estimated remaining time to upload
  • 7.x-2.x NEW: category list now reflects the region (configurable)
  • 7.x-2.x NEW: drush integration to download libraries
  • 7.x-2.x NEW: optionally use the node title to set the video title

This module has been tested to work with Views and Panels module.
