I have written code to grab these values from YouTube. So, for http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUBbTMdLD0Q, I get the following:
And from my understand, all I need to do next is download the file: http://www.youtube.com/get_video?video_id=YUBbTMdLD0Q&t=vjVQa1PpcFP86ZrlCWJMcfURrN-0uI5ElVojDbYC4nc%3D
This doesn't work. Suggestions?
