Offer all video formats for YouTube

Created on 14 September 2023, almost 2 years ago

Updated 25 February 2024, over 1 year ago

Problem/Motivation

Core media only supports videos with https://www.youtube.com/watch in its URL. However, https://www.youtube.com/shorts/ and https://youtube.com/playlist?list= are not supported despite being valid YouTube video formats.

To get YouTube Shorts and YouTube Playlists to work in Drupal, you have to use the embed code from Youtube. This is generally an undesirable user experience because the iFrame decreases the accessibility of the page the video is embedded on. Also, not all content creators understand or have the know-how to add embed code to their Drupal website.

Steps to reproduce

Proposed resolution

Allow YouTube Shorts and Playlists to work with Remote media without the use of embed code and iFrames.

For Youtube playlists there was already an issue in the past 🐛 YouTube PlayLists can't be added to Remote Video due to regex issue. Fixed which added possibility to add Youtube playlists via Drupal core's remote_video media entity.

@laura.gates: Is your oEmbed providers.json up2date?

Seems about right.

Also check your logs for error messages mentioning "oEmbed providers".

Look into resetting the oembed_providers entry in your KV.
