Question

I am using AFNetworking to parse JSON data on UITableView. YouTube api give JSON data for max 50 videos. I need to load more than 100 videos and i am not sure how to do that.

Here is the url i am using to get the files from the API:

http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/playlists/PL7CF5B0AC3B1EB1D5?v=2&alt=jsonc&max-results=50

And here is my code:

- (void)viewDidLoad
{
    [super viewDidLoad];


    NSString *urlAsString = @"http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/playlists/PL7CF5B0AC3B1EB1D5?v=2&alt=jsonc&max-results=50";


    NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:urlAsString];

    NSURLRequest *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url];

    // This will initiate the request and parse the data using apples JSONSerialization

    AFJSONRequestOperation *operation = [AFJSONRequestOperation JSONRequestOperationWithRequest:request success:^(NSURLRequest *request, NSHTTPURLResponse *response, id JSON) {



        self.videoMetaData = [JSON valueForKeyPath:@"data.items.video"];

        // This will have all the sq and hq thumbnails

        self.allThumbnails = [JSON valueForKeyPath:@"data.items.video.thumbnail"];

Answer 1

Provide the start-index-option. For example:

1. Get 50 results with this URL:
   http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/playlists/PL7CF5B0AC3B1EB1D5?v=2&alt=jsonc&max-results=50
2. Get the next 50 results by adding &start-index=51:
   http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/playlists/PL7CF5B0AC3B1EB1D5?v=2&alt=jsonc&max-results=50&start-index=51

See the YouTube API v. 2.0 reference.
