Get RTSP URL from Youtube

Question

I have a video URL like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AAAAAAAAAA

How can I get a RTSP URL for this video?

Answer 1

Go to this link, and Replace "VIDEOID" with the actual ID of the video you want:

http://m.youtube.com/add_favorite?v=VIDEOID

then right click the image of the video, and copy the link.

For example, if the video is http://youtube.com/watch?v=ABCDEFGHIJK, you would request http://m.youtube.com/add_favorite?v=ABCDEFGHIJK

The link is affectively permanent, but it will vary depending upon whether or not you are logged in and what preferences you have set when you request the page.
