ANNOUNCE: YouTube Plugin (API v3)

The YouTube plugin thread is long and I cannot edit the initial post as it belongs to Triode. I've made a lot of changes since I started to maintain it so I think its better to start a new thread, as its difficult to find relevant information in the initial one.

There is a stable and a dev repository. The stable is included in the 3rd party plugins, so you need to add one of the below links *only* if you want the dev (the stable repo is given just for reference, don't bother with it)
Code:

dev: http://tenet.dl.sourceforge.net/project/lms-youtube/dev/repo-sf.xml
stable: http://tenet.dl.sourceforge.net/project/lms-plugins-philippe44/repo-sf.xml

Starting with version 0.40, it uses the new YT video format webm instead of the old flv which is deprecated.

You *need* a YouTube API key, so either find somebody that gives you one or follow these steps

- using your gmail account
- go to https://console.developers.google.co...utube/overview
- click "Create a project" if you don't have any
- in the next screen, go to "credentials"
- click on "create credentials", select "API key" and then choose "Browser key"
- click "create" and copy the key
- go back to https://console.developers.google.co...utube/overview
- click "enable"
- paste the key in the YT plugin settings

This plugin *requires* SSL so make sure it's installed on your LMS server. Not a problem for Windows, OSX, most Linux x86, Raspberry pi, Cubie, Odroid and others that use a Debian-base, but can be problematic with some NAS. I don't have a perfect guide, so please refer to your NAS forum, but most of the recent NAS firmware update include SSL as well, so that might be all that is required.

Other than that, Perl must have SSL support enabled, which again is available in all recent distribution and LMS versions (I think)< But in case of problem and for Debian-ish Linux, you can try "sudo apt-get install libio-socket-ssl-perl libnet-ssleay-perl" at any command prompt. Here is as well the link to the original thread http://forums.slimdevices.com/showth...l=1#post631449
