Youtube Channell won't work

Permalink Browser Info Environment
Hi,

I'm trying to set up Youtube Channel on my site but it just returns a black line. Can't think what I'm doing wrong.

I'm feeding Subscriptions
Putting in my Username with no blanks

Any help greatly appreciated.

Regards

Barry

Can you please confirm which username you are entering and the URL of your site where you've used the block?

Also, may I know what you are trying to achieve? If you want specific videos to be played on your youtube channel block you may put them into a Playlist and use the Youtube Channel "Playlist" mode.

Hope this helps.

Hi jb1,

That's what I will be doing - creating a playlist per sport. I read a post earlier that only videos uploaded are able to be broadcat on this tool. Is this still true?

The usernname that I am using is knowthescorekts. The URL ishttp://www.know-the-score.com

Thanks

Hi Barry

Yes I think putting it on playlist should make more manageable since using the "subscription" option has limitation on what kind of videos you want to display.

To answer your question, yes it can only display videos that are uploaded on Youtube and cannot include videos that aren't found on Youtube and can be viewed publicly. Did that answer you question?

Hope this helps.

Hi

Just to clarify then.

1. Only videos on YouTube can be viewed on this. Make sense cos ut is a YouTube application.
2. Once a video is on YouTube and it is public it can be viewed on this (i need to have subscribed to it). It does not necessarily need to be uploaded by me.

Are my details right regarding username etc?

Thanks

Barry

Help. I'm still at a loss as to how this works.

Need to get this working urgently so I can move on my this project.

Hi Barry, please be patient. It was only 5hrs since your last message and my team work from different parts of the world so there are timezone differences to keep in mind. JZ will get an answer to you as quickly as possible.

Hi Barry,

Thanks for your patience.

1. Yes that's right only videos from youtube can be viewed.
2. Your requirement here seems to be achievable by Playlist option but mind you this option requires a "Playlist ID" instead of a username as seen here.http://screencast.com/t/R1okgFRr...

a. To find out what is the ID of your Playlist go to your Playlist pagehttp://screencast.com/t/KDFdEi1JK6e6...
b. And get the ID from the URL For example:http://screencast.com/t/SnJAEUoB...

Hope this helps.

Feel free to get back if you get stuck on anything.

Hi JZ

I have tried what you have suggested but it still is't working.

Here is the playlist that I want to set up for the moment. It contains two videos - One video is copied from one of my subscriptions and another is a test video I created and uploaded myself. The playlist is public.

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLb6S9gcfnG2ECAuSN289zSR3R7MeU...

I am entering PLb6S9gcfnG2ECAuSN289zSR3R7MeUf20U in the playlist ID section.

Would it be better if I private messaged you my URL and password so you can see the problem I am having?

Hi Barry,

I tried your playlist ID on my end and it seemed to work (see attached file). It might also be better if you can message me your login info and url so I can investigate it.

Again, thanks for your patience.
