I have allvideos (latest version 4.7.0) installed on two separate sites. One site with Joomla 3.3.6 and another with Joomla! 3.5.0 Stable
The player works fine on the J3.3.6 site but the J3.5 site comes back with an error (when pointing to the same video on youtube)

I'm using the same browser for both, the same video link (copied and pasted from the working version)
So the problem is not with firefox or the youtube content. or the syntax in the document calling allvideos plugin'

It just shows a black video with a play button which when clicked gives the error message:
"An Error Occurred. Please try again later. (Playback ID . . . etc etc . . ."

It is behaving as if the video is not available - yet as I say - the same video is being played (even at the same time) on the other site.
I have tried it with many different videos - each of which are working on the J3.3.6 site.

Can anyone tell me what the problem might be. Are there any dependent components or settings I need to have on Joomla 3.5.0 for allvideos to work?

OK So addendum to this.
First of all the version of allvideos working on J3.3.6 is NOT the latest version but : 4.6.1 - so that might make a difference.
secondly - although I don't think this makes a diff. I will paste here the error showing in the back end when you view the plugin allvideos

Strict Standards: Declaration of JWElement::render() should be compatible with JFormField::render($layoutId, $data = Array) in /home/ . . . address of site . . ./plugins/content/jw_allvideos/jw_allvideos/includes/elements/base.php on line 17

If I can find the old version of allvideos I'll try installing that instead and see it that works.

Hi,

Can you share a link to your page with the video ?

Sorry - site is not live - but picture above shows what you would see. (click link to imgur.com)

Is this www.youtube.com/watch?v=4G8oE5sntzm the video you are trying to embed ?

Sorted!

I uninstalled the latest version of allvideos from my J3.5 and installed the allvideos 4.6.1 version and it works straight away with any video.

Thanks anyway for your efforts. Hope this is of help to someone else.

Allvideos 4.6.1 works fine with J3.5

Example of properly shown and playing video here: imgur.com/D8pXgog

Once the site is live send us as a link so we can sort it out.
Unfortunately the error message is too generic.
Also can you post the snippet and YouTube's URL you are using with some spaces (so it does not get renderred)?

I'm happy enough that it works fine with allvideos 4.6.1 thanks. If it's not broke I won't try to fix it.

This is the code in the article;

It WORKS in J3.5 if I use allvideos 4.6 but does not work if I use allvideos 4.7

Hi

I am stuggling with this too. Here tanyaperry.com.au/new/index.php/tanya-perry/goals-chalenges

{youtube}youtu.be/rLOMbY1uD9c|560|315|1{/youtube}

Displays the embedded window but will not play and shows error message.

Where can I get hold of version 4.6? or is there an answer I have missed here?

Sorry you have probably answered this before but nothing else came up with my searches in these forums.

Hi Rob

I'm sure there is somewhere official you can get this but for your convenience here is the one I used successfully

PS I tried to PM you with this but couldn't find a way to contact you

This is an outdated version. Please update it to 4.7 or even better use the DEV version github.com/joomlaworks/allvideos
