YouTube

Description

The YouTube control lets you embed YouTube videos in your app. All the settings needed to display a video can be set at design time in AppStudio: no additional code needs to be written.

If you do want to change any settings at runtime, you can do so. Use the .refresh() method to redisplay the video with your new settings.

Rather than Start in Desktop Browser (in the Run menu), use Deploy to Local Folder. That starts it in a server (as you would if you were running as a “real” app).

For more information, please see Google's docs.

Example

This code lets the user enter a Video ID at runtime. It also resizes based on screen size.

Sub Main()
  txtVideoID.text=YouTube1.settings.videoID
End Sub

Function btnRefresh_onclick()
  YouTube1.settings.videoID = txtVideoID.text
  YouTube1.settings.width = Form1.Width-20
  YouTube1.refresh()
End Function
