With YouTube iFrame Player and API you can: Embed a YouTube video player on your website and Control the player using JavaScript.
Using the API’s JavaScript functions, you can: queue videos for playback; play, pause, or stop those videos; adjust the player volume (mute/unmute); retrieve information about the video being played.
Prerequisites
You must have a developer account with Google to interact with the plugin and API. Create you development account at: YouTube | Google for Developers
I have one question.
Can I embed a video on my website as a background video?
It means I need to remove all the player buttons coming along with the YouTube default UI.
I simply want the video content played as a background image.
I was at first thinking to subscribe Vimeo Pro to get this feature, but it cost as much as few hundreds dollars per year.
Unfortunately at the moment, the plugin doesn’t allow to disable default UI of the player. Our developers will check if this can be implemented. In case this functionality can be added to the plugin we will update the plugin. I will keep you posted in this regard!
We have added the functionality of disabling the video player’ UI. In the setting of the element now is available a checkbox “Video Player UI Disabled”, in order to disable the UI just check this option.
Could you add the function to jump to a specific time and play?
For example, I have a quote from the video at 1:15, and when I click the quote, the player jumps to that time.
I would certainly buy it if this is included… Thanks!
Thank you for your message, and thanks for the idea to add timestamp inside the plugin.
I left a note for our Developers team, so we can check how feasible it can be to add the requested feature in the future plugin update.
As per the fact we have no time estimates for such tasks, I will get back to you with an update in this thread once there will be any news.
Hi! Can I use this plugin to show a video in a repeating group on request from the Bubble database?
For example, I have an entry in the database “new Bubble adaptive engine” and through the workflow I have all the videos with this text from the YouTube search are shown
Hello @mszaxaroff!
Just wanted to give you a quick update - our developer team is still looking into this issue.
As soon as there is any news - we will let you know.
It would be possible, but let us provide you with an alternative, which is more convenient and easier to set up:
You can use the plug-in to return YouTube videos with the requested keyword(s) in a repeating group. For example, you set “dog” as the keyword/parameter, and all public YouTube videos containing the word “dog” in the title will be shown in that repeating group.
Below, we’ve attached a couple of screenshots for your reference.
If you like our plugin, feel free to rate it by going to the Plugins tab in the Bubble editor. You can find the plugin by name and give it as many stars as it deserves.
The more feedback we get, the more motivated we are to build great plugins!
Do not hesitate to contact us with any questions you might have.
Hi, it’s a week I am trying to use YT Iframe Player API without success (if you want, check my post at Using YouTube IFrame Player API along with Bubble video element), and I was enthusiast to see you have developed a specific plugin for it.
I have visited the plugin page and wanted to check it, so I tried the live demo. Unluckily it seems not to work at all, at least with me, on Chrome (when I click any of the custom buttons, I get alert of errors and the player doesn’t react to the commands). So I was guessing if this plugin is still supported or not. Thank you!
Thank you for reporting this. We will take care of the plugin demo page
Sorry for the inconvenience. Once the demo will be fixed - we let you know here.
it seems now it to work properly. Can you confirm me that the point was the video automute?
After writing you I could get the same result of your plugin but only if I load videos with “mute=1”.
