Hi all,

I sucesfully load youtube videos to my flash by following this steps: http://code.google.com/apis/youtube/flash_api_reference.html

Now I want to be able to block the ads, a friend said he did it by adding this code ?rel=0&showinfo=0 at the end of the video url in HTML but I am not sure how to do it for the AS3 code

Any help will be much appreciated

Cheers

Hi Andrew,

I did by calling player.loadVideoByUrl("http://www.youtube.com/v/<MY_VID_ID>?rel=0&showinfo=0", 0); but no luck

Check out my output console:

player ready
player state: -1
player state: -1
video quality: small
player state: 3
GET AD BREAKS : BaseAdbreakDefiner
loading: [AdSlot: break.start=0 id=0 loader=[object AfvAdLoader]]
player state: 1

At some point is calling the ads, any ideas?

Cheers

Frankly, it would be quite stupid of youtube to allow ad skipping in the videos that are meant to show commercials. Its a money thing. So, I guess, even if there was a hack - it would be closed by youtube. Unless, of course, there is a legit way which I cannot find.
