I can't help you with using the API. However, I did find this method
helpful for _displaying_ the videos
def youtube_video(url, width=600, height=nil)
height ||= (width*355/425).floor
url = url.gsub('watch?v=', 'v/')
"<object type=\"application/x-shockwave-flash\" data=
\"#{url}&rel=0\" width=\"#{width}\" height=\"#{height}\"><param name=
\"movie\" value=\"#{url}&rel=0\" /><param name=\"FlashVars\" value=
\"playerMode=embedded\" /></object>"
end
The url argument is simply the URL from youtube. This way, the users
don't have to use YouTube's "embed this" text, (which some find
confusing) and instead I can impose my own parameters such as width/
height/etc.
I'm sorry I couldn't help more.
