My local church hosts a weekly show and upload the videos on Youtube. And I've been asked to develop an app for them, so far all is well, however, I have to implement a feature that will allow me to stream the show's videos unto the app.
I honestly don't have much of a clue how to go about it (still new to android programming)! I've looked around here and seen that a few people have already attempted to do this, but unlike what most people have done or tried to do, the videos are released on that day (not live streaming). For example the 10/02/13 video will be released on 10/02/13.
This link gives me an idea on how to stream a video on Android, but that shows that I have to explicitly put in the link for the video.
Is there a way to do the same thing, but instead of adding the link myself, the app should retrieve the videos from a server??
Thank you in advance for your help!

To achieve this you need to make the webservice which help to communicate mobile and web server. When you send the request from mobile to server then make the web service which give you response which have link of video then you can stream the video.

I want to be able to display a certain youtube channel's videos and allow the user to select one of their videos to watch. Do I have to do this manually (parse the source code of the webpage to get each individual video link and then display them) or can I use the youtube api?
If anyone has done this, example code or tutorials would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
you can do that without parse any webpage, the correct way is using the youtube api
from a Youtube video get the Id
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opZ69P-0Jbc
(this is the mobile youtube version
http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=opZ69P-0Jbc)
so you can get the data scheme
http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/mobile/videos/opZ69P-0Jbc
and you can get for example the related videos
http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/mobile/videos/opZ69P-0Jbc/related

i am working on a small project that i need the ability to let users upload a video to my website or use a webcam to record a video and then upload it. i have seen this done on several sites (youtube,facebook etc) so i know that there is a java or flash applet that supports this. however i have not been able to find one.
can anyone recommend a good flash or java based video uploader with these features?
Is a video upload control different from a file upload control?
Here's a Flash file upload control.
Here's a link to a Ajax file upload control.
If you search Stack Overflow for "Ajax file uploader" or "Flash file uploader" you'll get more recommendations.
Edit:
Here's a flash recorder and uploader.
http://www.a8dropzone.com have a upload applet with built in media transcoder (based on ffmpeg so you can feed it pretty much anything)
