YouTube Extension
Hi, I have just developed an extension that allows you to:
Listen to the audio of a YouTube video as MP3 in a "player".
Get the Thumbnail from a YouTube video
Get the title of a youtube video
Disadvantages:
after many requests, it crashes for a while (not very long), in this case, the block will return the value "Error".
Blocks
It gets the url of the .mp3 file
You can play the audio like this:
It gets the name of the YouTube video.
You can get the name like this:
It gets the Thumbnail of the video.
You can put the thumbnail in an "image" like this:
What is the video "id"?
Video "id" is the final part of the YouTube video url:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v= 60ItHLz5WEA
Download
You can download the extension here: com.meulencv.youtube.aix (11.2 KB)
My extension can not be used on copyrighted videos, in case you use it on copyrighted videos it will be your fault and the charges, consequences...that may have will fall on you, I am not responsible.

Hello,
I don't know how to do it, but I think that there are extensions that allows you to download
