I have an embed code like that, and I want the div named "playvideo" acts like YouTube's play button, I think it's an easy one but I'm new on JavaScript, can anybody have an idea?
Well you can use YouTube's Player API function:
player.playVideo()
So ... HTML:
<div id="mydiv" onclick="play_this_video()">Play my video</div>
and JavaScript:
function play_this_video(){
player.playVideo();
}

Im trying force autoplay when the youtube video is ready.
<html>
<body>
<div id="player"></div>
<br/>
<button id="botaoPlay" onclick="playMusic()">play</button>
<script>
var tag = document.createElement('script');
tag.src = "https://www.youtube.com/iframe_api";
var firstScriptTag = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
firstScriptTag.parentNode.insertBefore(tag, firstScriptTag);
var player;
var timeout = null;
function onYouTubeIframeAPIReady() {
player = new YT.Player('player', {
height: '360',
width: '640',
videoId: '8t3EHHhkC34',
playerVars: { autoplay: 1 , enablejsapi: 1, playsinline: 1, origin: 'http://localhost' },
events: {
'onReady': onPlayerReady,
'onStateChange': onPlayerStateChange,
'onError': onPlayerError
}
});
}
// 4. The API will call this function when the video player is ready.
function onPlayerReady(event) {
event.target.setVolume(65);
if(!timeout)
timeout = setInterval(playMusic, 1000);
}
function playMusic() {
if (player) {
player.playVideo();
}
}
function onPlayerStateChange(event) {
console.log("status changed: " + player.getPlayerState());
if( player.getPlayerState() == 1 ){
clearInterval(timeout);
}
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
But the video only starts if i click on button... how can i start the video? I tried instead call playVideo() in interval, call button.click() but didnt work too, only if i click with mouse in button. How can i start my video without click on button?
Somewhat related to:
YouTube IFrame API doesn't always load?
But different in that I AM loading the YouTube script per instructions. Note, in my source, the iframe is ABOVE the script block in the load order. I based this off of these instructions (below). The example works fine if I'm on that page, but doesn't seem to work for me when I put the code on mine. I'm sure I'm missing something really simple but I'm to be missing it. Thanks!

Best way to load a Youtube Video by his API, is following this sintaxis:
<div id="video-youtube"></div>
<script id="youtube-tracking-script">
var youtubeVideoId = 'u3A7bmEOtaU'; // replace with your own video id
var tag = document.createElement('script');
tag.src = "https://www.youtube.com/iframe_api";
var firstScriptTag = document.getElementById("youtube-tracking-script");
firstScriptTag.parentNode.insertBefore(tag, firstScriptTag);
var video;
function onYouTubeIframeAPIReady() {
video = new YT.Player('video-youtube', {
height: '352',
width: '100%',
videoId: youtubeVideoId,
playerVars: {rel: 0, showinfo: 0},
events: {
'onStateChange': videoPlay
}
});
}
function videoPlay(event) {
if (event.data == YT.PlayerState.PLAYING) {
console.log("YouTube Video is PLAYING!!");
}
if (event.data == YT.PlayerState.PAUSED) {
console.log("YouTube Video is PAUSED!!");
}
if (event.data == YT.PlayerState.ENDED) {
console.log("YouTube Video is ENDING!!");
}
}
</script>

You should replace your <iframe> </iframe> to <div id= "js_youTubeFrame"> </div>, in my case it works.
I think that Youtube Iframe Api needs that div to convert it on iframe after.
I have an embedded YouTube videos in my HTML page. I'm trying to get the current time of YouTube video. I used the answer of that question to create page like this
(YouTube currentTime with jQuery)
When I'm trying to display the time I'm getting an error: 'getCurrentTime is not a function'.
HTML
<div style="text-align:center">
<button onclick="playPause()">Play</button>
<button onclick="showTime()">Show Time</button>
<br><br>
<iframe id = "it" width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/v/FHtvDA0W34I?version=3&enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
<br>
<label id=startHighlighlbl>VideoHighlightStart: </label>
</div>
JavaScript
<script>
var tag = document.createElement('script');
tag.src = "https://www.youtube.com/iframe_api";
var firstScriptTag = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
firstScriptTag.parentNode.insertBefore(tag, firstScriptTag);
var player;
function onYouTubeIframeAPIReady() {
player = new YT.Player('player', {
events: {
'onReady': onPlayerReady
}
});
}
function onPlayerReady(event) {
event.target.playVideo();
}
function ShowTime() {
alert(player.getCurrentTime());
}
</script>
You should load your video through the YT-API, so player is initialized correctly and thus accessible through the API. Basically you need to remove your iframe from your HTML and instead let YT-API create the iframe for you.
Try the following:
var tag = document.createElement('script');
tag.src = "https://www.youtube.com/iframe_api";
var firstScriptTag = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
firstScriptTag.parentNode.insertBefore(tag, firstScriptTag);
var player;
function onYouTubeIframeAPIReady() {
player = new YT.Player('it', {
height: '315',
width: '560',
videoId: 'FHtvDA0W34I',
events: {
'onReady': onPlayerReady,
'onStateChange': onPlayerStateChange
}
});
}
function onPlayerReady(event) {
event.target.playVideo();
}
var done = false;
function onPlayerStateChange(event) {
if (event.data == YT.PlayerState.PLAYING && !done) {
setTimeout(stopVideo, 6000);
done = true;
}
}
function stopVideo() {
player.stopVideo();
}
function ShowTime() {
alert(player.getCurrentTime());
}
<body>
<button onclick="ShowTime()">Show Time</button>
<br>
<div id="it"></div>
</body
so I'm using the Youtube iFrame API to give me an alert when the video stops playing with the following code:
<div id="player"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var tag = document.createElement('script');
tag.src = "https://www.youtube.com/iframe_api";
var firstScriptTag = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
firstScriptTag.parentNode.insertBefore(tag, firstScriptTag);
var player;
function onYouTubeIframeAPIReady() {
player = new YT.Player('player', {
height: '390',
width: '640',
videoId: '0Bmhjf0rKe8',
playerVars: {
'autoplay': 1,
'controls': 1,
'html5': 1
},
events: {
'onReady': onPlayerReady,
'onStateChange': onPlayerStateChange
}
});
}
var playerReady = false;
// 4. The API will call this function when the video player is ready.
function onPlayerReady(event) {
playerReady = true;
}
// 5. The API calls this function when the player's state changes.
// The function indicates that when playing a video (state=1),
// the player should play for six seconds and then stop.
function onPlayerStateChange(event) {
if (event.data == YT.PlayerState.ENDED) {
alert('done');
}
}
I tried this same code on jsfiddle: (http://jsfiddle.net/QtBlueWaffle/8bpQ8/1/) and it works fine there. Doesn't work on my local machine though. Any ideas?
A feature I am trying to implement in my rails app is the ability for users to control embedded youtube videos. I am using the youtube player api (guidelines here: https://developers.google.com/youtube/iframe_api_reference).
In the guidelines, it is always creating a new YT player:
// 3. This function creates an <iframe> (and YouTube player)
// after the API code downloads.
var player;
function onYouTubeIframeAPIReady() {
player = new YT.Player('player', {
height: '390',
width: '640',
videoId: 'M7lc1UVf-VE',
events: {
'onReady': onPlayerReady,
'onStateChange': onPlayerStateChange
}
});
}
My question is how can I play an already embedded youtube video with an outside 'play' button.
The error is on the player = new YT.Player line. I don't want to make a new player, just control the already embedded video.
var player;
function onYouTubePlayerAPIReady() {
player = new YT.Player('video', {
events: {
'onReady': onPlayerReady
}
});
}
function onPlayerReady(event){
event.target.playVideo();
document.id("start").click(function () {
player.playVideo();
});
}
var tag = document.createElement('script');
tag.src = "//www.youtube.com/player_api";
var firstScriptTag = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
firstScriptTag.parentNode.insertBefore(tag, firstScriptTag);
my iframe:
<iframe title="YouTube video player" id="video" width="540" height="290" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/#{ youtube_id }?rel=0&enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
header view with play button:
<div id="start">
<%= image_tag("playback_play.png") %>
</div>
(rails app)
if you need more code, let me know, thanks for the help!
Not a direct answer to your question, but a potential solution for you:
<div id="player"></div>
<div id="start" style="display: none;">
<%= image_tag("playback_play.png") %>
</div>
<script>
function onYouTubePlayerAPIReady() {
player = new YT.Player('player', {
height: '390',
width: '640',
videoId: '#{ youtube_id }', // not sure if you want that or <%= youtube_id %> in this case
events: {
'onReady': onPlayerReady,
'onStateChange': onPlayerStateChange
}
});
}
function onPlayerReady(event){
//event.target.playVideo(); // commented out -- uncomment if you want autoplay
document.id("start").show();
}
var tag = document.createElement('script');
tag.src = "//www.youtube.com/player_api";
var firstScriptTag = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
firstScriptTag.parentNode.insertBefore(tag, firstScriptTag);
