So I have this broken Youtube playlist (PHP loop that gets playlist info from Youtube feed). Oddly, it broke when a few duplicate/failed upload videos were deleted, no clue why.
Anyways, I have this playlist feed URL which doesn’t seem to work, but was working earlier: http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/playlists/6549D4CA7BB99B16?v=2
What is the number following /playlists/? It doesn’t look like a playlist ID (since they appear to start with ‘PL’) or a user ID http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6549D4CA7BB99B16.
I have several such feeds in the code, they all used to work. Thoughts?
It is the playlist ID — YouTube apparently just recently instituted a change that requires appending the ‘PL’ characters, like this:
