How to get RTSP video link from Youtube API V3?

I usually used it with V2, but what is the alternative in the V3 API? if it is unavailable, are there any hacks? eg. guess the url?

Note: V2 is now deprecated, so I cannot depend on it.

Yes, this is another advantage of the V3 API. Other benefits of this API:

  • No more selecting multiple screenshots from
  • No longer video duration; must be requested in the second request
  • Video length encrypted in ISO 8601 format to ensure that you cannot convert it to seconds

The lack of RTSP is another. I am sure that in API v4 they will probably also hide the title of the video to ensure that the API is completely useless.

API v3 does not return RTSP, it is best to implement an iFrame player, and it will transmit the format that suits you.
