I am trying to play youtube video in exoplayer but here is some confusion I don't know what is DASH url, I have only real youtube url like "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v1uyQZNg2vE" , I have no idea how to generate dash url form real url.
Dash Url:
new Sample("Google Glass",
"http://www.youtube.com/api/manifest/dash/id/bf5bb2419360daf1/source/youtube?"
+ "as=fmp4_audio_clear,fmp4_sd_hd_clear&sparams=ip,ipbits,expire,as&ip=0.0.0.0&"
+ "ipbits=0&expire=19000000000&signature=255F6B3C07C753C88708C07EA31B7A1A10703C8D."
+ "2D6A28B21F921D0B245CDCF36F7EB54A2B5ABFC2&key=ik0", DemoUtil.TYPE_DASH),
Real Url :
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v1uyQZNg2vE
I've written a class that retrieves actual YouTube video streaming URL for format like DASH and HLS using http://www.youtube.com/get_video_info?&video_id=[video_id]&el=info&ps=default&eurl=&gl=US&hl=en url with video ID as described by Karim Abdell Salam. I have also tested the URL in an app that uses ExoPlayer and it works:

try

System.out.println(retriever.getInfo(YouTubeVideoInfoRetriever.KEY_DASH_VIDEO));
}
catch (IOException e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
I had the same issue but i finally found the simplest solution and its working so good
First you need to call this url..
HTTP GET: https://www.youtube.com/get_video_info?&video_id=[video_id]&el=info&ps=default&eurl=&gl=US&hl=en
and don't forget to change the last id with the target one.
- now you will get notice to download a file called get_video_info with no extesion.
- try to open this file using notepad and so.
- Now you have the right data but you can't read it because its encoded You need HTML decoder to reed this data use this one: http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/dencoder/
-just paste your data and press decode a several times to ensure it decoded well
finally search for a key called dashmpd
and enjoy ur URL
Or use this Simple Solution
private void extractYoutubeUrl() {
@SuppressLint("StaticFieldLeak") YouTubeExtractor mExtractor = new YouTubeExtractor(this) {
@Override
protected void onExtractionComplete(SparseArray<YtFile> sparseArray, VideoMeta videoMeta) {
if (sparseArray != null) {
playVideo(sparseArray.get(17).getUrl());
}
}
};
mExtractor.extract(mYoutubeLink, true, true);
implementation 'com.github.HaarigerHarald:android-youtubeExtractor:v1.7.0'
You will have to get the HTTP response from the youtube URL (in your case real URL) and then search for the section "url_encoded_fmt_stream_map". In that section you will get a URI which needs to be decoded twice to get the DASH URL you are looking for.
to play youtube video in exoplayer we can use this library
https://github.com/HaarigerHarald/android-youtubeExtractor
and simply get the url like this and then play in exoplyer
String youtubeLink = "http://youtube.com/watch?v=xxxx";
new YouTubeExtractor(this) {
@Override
public void onExtractionComplete(SparseArray<YtFile> ytFiles, VideoMeta vMeta) {
if (ytFiles != null) {
int itag = 22;
String downloadUrl = ytFiles.get(itag).getUrl();
}
}
}.extract(youtubeLink, true, true);
