I found many questions in this forum regarding embedding youtube video and autoplay, but none of them cleared all my doubts.
I found two methods to embed youtube video in UIWebView
1)
NSString *youTubeHTMLTemplate = @"<html><head><style type="text/css">body { background-color: transparent;color: white;}</style></head><body style="margin:0"><embed id="yt" src="%@" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="%0.0f" height="%0.0f"></embed></body></html>";
finalHtml = [NSString stringWithFormat:youTubeHTMLTemplate, fullYopuTubeUrl, htmlFrameWidth, htmlFrameHeight];
2)
NSString *youTubeHTMLTemplate = @"<html><body style="margin:0;padding:0;"><iframe class="youtube-player" type="text/html" width="%f" height="%f" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/%@" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></body></html>";
finalHtml = [NSString stringWithFormat:youTubeHTMLTemplate, htmlFrameWidth, htmlFrameHeight, videoID];
If I use (1) method and follow the approach given here my video autoplays. Idea is to find button in UIWebView and send touch up event to it.
If I use (2) and follow the same approach video does not autoplay.
I think that the (2) approach is recommended as the (1) is for Flash Videos only (Right?).
Is by any means (2) is possible ? This link says NO.
Can anyone confirm
- If I am correct that (2) is recommended
- Autoplay with (2) is not possible.
