Thanks!

As mentioned in the following discussion, it’s not possible to directly stream raw video files from youtube. Hence, you can’t use them as a source for video textures.

No, it is not a solution, because “url_encoded_fmt_stream_map” is not longer supported.

:face_with_hand_over_mouth: regardless which technique, i wouldn’t trust youtube to provide a reliable API since they change their service constantly, mostly in a negative way.
