Needing Youtube thumb nail fix.


Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

I have a script on a site that pulls in you-tube videos,
The problem is, that the thumb nails for the site, no longer show up.

I have tried to add codes to remove the line causing the problem but this fails me.

The code is this if anyone has a way to fix it.

<?php

function yt($ytsearch) {

global $ytcurrenttag;
global $ytvids;
global $ytid;
$ytvids = array();
$ytid=0;

function ytinsidethetag($ytparser, $ytdata){
global $ytcurrenttag;
global $ytvids;
global $ytid;
if(!strcmp(strtolower($ytcurrenttag),"title")) {
$ytvids[$ytid]['type'] = "yt";
$ytvids[$ytid]['title']=$ytdata;
$ytvids[$ytid]['title'][0] = ucwords($ytvids[$ytid]['title'][0]);
}

}

function ytopentag($ytparser, $ytdata, $ytattr=''){
global $ytcurrenttag;
$ytcurrenttag = $ytdata;
global $ytvids;
global $ytid;
if(!strcmp(strtolower($ytcurrenttag),"media:player")) {
$ytvids[$ytid]['link']=str_replace("watch?v=","v/",$ytattr['URL']);
$ytvids[$ytid]['thumb']=str_replace("http://www.youtube.com/v/","http://img.youtube.com/vi/",$ytvids[$ytid]['link']);
$ytvids[$ytid]['thumb'].="/2.jpg";
}
}

function ytclosetag($ytparser, $ytdata){
global $ytid;
if(!strcmp(strtolower($ytdata),"entry"))
$ytid++;
}

$ytxml_parser = xml_parser_create();

xml_set_element_handler($ytxml_parser, "ytopentag", "ytclosetag");

xml_set_character_data_handler($ytxml_parser, "ytinsidethetag");



include("fetch.php");
$ytdata = fetchrssyt("http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/videos?vq=$ytsearch&start-index=1&max-results=40");
if(!(xml_parse($ytxml_parser, $ytdata)))
die("Error on line " . xml_get_current_line_number($ytxml_parser));

xml_parser_free($ytxml_parser);

return $ytvids;
}

?>

The code in the browser for the thumb comes up.
http://img.youtube.com/vi/lOgQyIMX_XU&feature=youtube_gdata/2.jpg

and i think for it to work i need.

http://img.youtube.com/vi/lOgQyIMX_XU/2.jpg
lOgQyIMX_XU = whatever video needs to be displayed.

Someone said to try this.
$ytid = str_replace('feature=youtube_gdata', '',$ytid);
$ytid = str_replace('&', '',$ytid);
$ytid = str_replace('amp;', '',$ytid);

but it did nothing for the problem
Thanks
