<html>
<head>
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="../node_modules/video.js/dist/video-js.min.css" />
</head>
<body>
<video
id="vid1"
class="video-js vjs-default-skin"
controls
autoplay
width="640" height="264"
data-setup='{ "techOrder": ["youtube"], "sources": [{ "type": "video/youtube", "src": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjS6SftYQaQ"}] }'

</video>
<script src="../node_modules/video.js/dist/video.min.js"></script>
<script src="../dist/Youtube.min.js"></script>
</body>

How does it work?
Including the script Youtube.min.js will add the YouTube as a tech. You just have to add it to your techOrder option. Then, you add the option src with your YouTube URL.
It supports:
- youtube.com as well as youtu.be
- Regular URLs: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjS6SftYQaQ
- Embeded URLs: http://www.youtube.com/embed/xjS6SftYQaQ
- Playlist URLs: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA60DCEB33156E51F OR http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjS6SftYQaQ&list=SPA60DCEB33156E51F
Options
It supports every regular Video.js options. Additionally, you can change any YouTube parameter. Here is an example of setting the iv_load_policy parameter to 1.
<video
id="vid1"
class="video-js vjs-default-skin"
controls
autoplay
width="640" height="264"
data-setup='{ "techOrder": ["youtube"], "sources": [{ "type": "video/youtube", "src": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjS6SftYQaQ"}], "youtube": { "iv_load_policy": 1 } }'
>
</video>YouTube controls
Because controls is already a Video.js option, to use the YouTube controls, you must set the ytControls parameter.
<video
id="vid1"
class="video-js vjs-default-skin"
controls
autoplay
width="640" height="264"
data-setup='{ "techOrder": ["youtube"], "sources": [{ "type": "video/youtube", "src": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjS6SftYQaQ"}], "youtube": { "ytControls": 2 } }'
>
</video>Custom Player Options
If you need to set any additional options on the YouTube player, you may do so with the customVars parameter:
<video
id="vid1"
class="video-js vjs-default-skin"
controls
autoplay
width="640" height="264"
data-setup='{ "techOrder": ["youtube"], "sources": [{ "type": "video/youtube", "src": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjS6SftYQaQ"}], "youtube": { "customVars": { "wmode": "transparent" } } }'
