Answer 1

You can use grep :

videos = $.grep(videos, function(e) { return e.id!='803641223' });

In vanilla JavaScript you could have used the similar filter function but it's not supported by IE8.

Please note that videos is a JavaScript array, it's not a JSON array, even if it was made by parsing a JSON string.
