Some videos may have restrictions on use, or may not be allowed in specific countries, or there may be issue with YouTube timeout. IF only “certain” videos don’t work, often it’s an issue with those videos, in my own experience. Check the video itself for any notes about restriction, or try embedding the video alone in a post to see if it loads on your site, as that might tell you right there if it’s not able to be loaded separate from any playlist function. 🙂

Perfect example, the second link you provided is “not available in your country” when I go to visit it (I’m in USA).

So, it does have some “restrictions” on its use.

First video works for me just fine.

and the solution is???

maybe by default the youtube have this restriction? if upload one video from greece is availabe only in greece by default?

Dunno. I’ve just run into this before. Sometimes it’s the IP your web server is loading the content from not being allowed to load certain content. eg., an Indian company with server in UK, might not be able to load content from Greece, if the content is limited to certain countries.

This is common with music videos, or movies, trailers, etc., as a country might not allow some kind of content to be loaded due to social mores, etc.

You can “Google” this topic, or read the FAQs on YouTube about licensed and limited content.

As I’ve said — this has happened to us before, and we basically just chose not to use content which doesn’t load, since it just won’t load 🙂

thanx again for support… at last, in single player played fine (use full string from youtube) in playlist player cannot (use only id from youtube)

Anyway… its no so big problem for me…

thanx again for good support

My pleasure … I don’t actually work here, just helping out from time to time. 🙂

(Lots of people have helped me the past 20 years building websites, and 10 years on WordPress, so I try to give back a little bit.)

Hi,

Thanks Christopher!

@mrmobile

I have also checked this, and found no issue with this, for this video from your ex, please note that this is the ID of it: http://screencast.com/t/0OW68iQlvPu
I also wanna add also that some video have restrictions regarding the site, meaning that they can be watched only on YouTube http://screencast.com/t/sL82DtoCV9

Thanks

Thanx for the answer
The id from video is ok! I see in your sample, you tried the video and can’t played in widget. In my case, if write the id from this video in playlist widget, the widget no showed in site. Some others video working good! The problem is in any Greek video with or without restrictions
