Hi all,

Im hoping this is an easy one, but as Im a novice at the video game, I could use some help.

Simply put, can I embed YouTube videos marked as "Private" onto my Drupal site?

A little background: the site is used for by a professor who wishes to sell access to his lectures. I have Ubercart w/ node access running nicely, and the videos are uploaded to YouTube, but obviously, if he is charging a fee for access, we don't want people to simply be able to view them for free on YouTube.

I have read posts stating to simply mark the video as Private and enable Embedding in YouTube, but when I view the node in Drupal, I still see the "This is a Private Video" message.

I have emfield and You Tube API (with keys) installed.

Hopefully this is just something simple I am overlooking, but I am also willing to dig into the code if need be.

Thanks a ton!

-Todd

Hi, Todd.

Have you found a solution for this? I have a members-only site where I'd like to embed links to videos uploaded to our youtube channel that have been marked as "private".

Hi guys.. I'll tack on if you don't mind... wondering if either of you mgiht have found a solution to this. I'm trying to do exactly the same for a client of mine and hosting the videos ourselves is not a good option.. so either youtube or another service is what i'm looking at now.. any thoughts?
