is it possible for me to create a m3u playlist that plays videos which are in 2 other m3u playlists?
Let me try to explain...
Suppose I create a file called playlist1.m3u and playlist2.m3u
(Contents of playlist1.m3u)
EXTM3U
EXTINF:-1,MP4 Home Video S1E01
(Mp4 Link Goes Here)
EXTINF:-1,MP4 Home Video S1E02
(MP4 Link Goes Here)
EXTINF:-1,MP4 Home Video S1E103
(MP4 Link Goes Here)
#EXTINF:-1,MP4 Home Video S1E104
Contents of playlist2.m3u)
EXTM3U
EXTINF:-1,MP4 Home Video S2E3
(MP4 LINK)
EXTINF:-1,MP4 Home Video S1E2
(MP4 Link)
EXTINF:-1,MP4 Home Video S1E3
(MP4 Link)
EXTINF:-1,MP4 Home Video S1E4
(MP4 Link)
So is it possible to connect Season 1 m3u Playlist and Season 2 m3u Playlist (Of Home Videos) together to be played in a 3rd m3u file?
Basically I'm wondering if I can create a m3u file which plays videos listed in 2 other m3u files.
This is what I use.
#EXTINF:-1 group-title="SERVER 8" logo="icon.png", Playlist title
playlist1.m3u8
playlist2.m3u8
Works well with the current version of VLC
Yes, you can create a nested playlist like this, but getting a player to properly play it back seems to be a bit of an issue.
VLC used to support this, but I've seen recent reports that there are issues with it.
I'm not sure if or how this is actually specified anywhere so the answer does seem to be dependent on the player - hence if you want a solution that will play with different players this may be an issues for you.

For the project purposes, we implemented a youtube player inside the iframe inside out application and it worked for a long period (at least the last 2 years). And now we are facing with an issue for playing some of the videos:
I followed these instructions https://developers.google.com/youtube/iframe_api_reference to create prototypes with working and not working youtube player
Video with Hebrew title in video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-_XAt1OFNI
https://www.w3schools.com/code/tryit.asp?filename=GU3ERZR46STN
It is not working
If we put the script out of iframe - it works well

Video with English title in video

And it is working well inside the iframe
I just ran into this issue on a site I'm building with CodeIgniter 4. Some videos play, some show "Video unavailable". It started when I enabled the secure headers filter.. Traced the problem to the Referrer-Policy, so I changed that from 'same-origin' to 'strict-origin-when-cross-origin', and now the unavailable videos play just fine.
I am trying to create a page with a standard youtube iframe player. It will play a video and when the first video finishes, it will use loadVideoById to load and play a second, and then after it finishes a third video.
The problem I have is that since I have partially watched the second (and third) video while signed into my youtube account, when the second (and third) video plays, it picks up from where I left off watching it on youtube, instead of starting from the beginning, and I don't want this to happen to anyone else who visits the site.
If I open the page in an incognito window it works as expected, so I know my code is good. If I just use an iframe and embed the video using youtube-nocookie.com as the domain (instead of just youtube.com) the videos start from the beginning. I could get away with using this method except I can seem to detect when the first video ends so I can change the iframe's source to start the next video.
I'm looking for any advice on either being able to detect when a youtube video ends in an iframe, or a way of using the full player with no cookies, or something (anything) else that will accomplish this task.
I have been trying to show a youtube video inside an a-frame entity. When I use the a-video tag it gives a CORS error.
<a-video src="https://youtube.com/..."></a-video>
I have tried the a-link but nothing seems to happen
<a-link src="https://youtube.com/..."><a-link>
I would like the user to click on the plane (wall) to play a video. Any suggestions on how this can be achieved.
Thanks

The official a-frame FAQ says this:
No. You could proxy YouTube videos as a texture or download them locally to serve, but that is against their terms of service.
Check out the the second link for a proof-of-concept.
I think they only want you to embed their videos via the iframe embed code you get when you right click a video on youtube and then hit "Copy embed code", and that would not work in aframe as far as I know.
We are Using JW Player version (6) on our website.
Unable to play 3gp Video on JWPlayer with the fancy box on website, can you please suggest the possible solution.

May recommend any other player that will play (3gp, mp4 & mov) file using the fancybox on website.
I've embedded a YouTube video onto a site (built in drupal) using the embed code from the video's YouTube page.
If I visit that page on an iPhone, it picks up the fact that there is a YouTube video and displays the icon that you click to pop open the video and watch it.
If I visit the same page on a Palm Pre it just displays a blank space where the video should be. If I visit the video on the YouTube page itself, however, the Palm Pre picks up the fact that there is a video and allows you to open it.
I'm just wondering if anyone else has run into the same problem and has some insights they can offer. I'd love to have a more graceful solution than just adding a link to the YouTube page below the embedded player
Thanks!
You could compare the embed code actually used on the YouTube page (as opposed to the one they offer for quick copy & paste) with the one you are using, as there are quite some different ways to embed a video.
I would expect them to use the SWFObject for embedding, which is a tiny bit more effort to use on your page, but usually works a lot more reliable than the 'old fashioned' embed tag offered for quick copy&paste.
You might also try requesting the YouTube page faking the user agent of the Palm Pre, as they might deliver something different for those, but that is pretty unlikely.
