virtuexru Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 OK, basically this is what I need. I need to be able to put in a YouTube or Break.com (or Google Video, etc) URL and have that selected video information to be stored in a MySQL database. I also need for it to create a screenshot (thumbnail) of the video. That's it! The video doesn't have to be downloaded, just all the information needs to be in the MySQL database so I can output the videos however I want in PHP/HTML. How should I start in reference to getting the information? Anyone have any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmgmyr Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 This came up with quite a few things: http://www.google.com/search?source=ig&hl=en&q=php+get+youtube+data I would look into the YouTube/Google API Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teng84 Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.file-get-contents.php and i guess storing it in your db is not the smart way i guess because the site might change the dir or delete that file you want in their server that will give you a prob i guess better to read the page and get the necessary info you need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
