Parameters of a list (on posts)

Under the section ‘Further Embedding Options’, it lists the parameters. Apologies if this isn’t very clear – I’ll improve this for the next release.

Sorry, I don’t see that under ??Further Embedding Options?? section:

Further Embedding Options
Under the YouTube Embed administration menu is a sub-menu named General Settings. Select this and find the section named Embedding. There are 2 options here that have not been covered already…

1. Add Metadata – by default, RDFa metadata is added to video output. This can be switched on or off as required (see the FAQs for more information about metadata usage).

2. Feed – videos will not appear in feeds so use this option to decide whether you want them to be converted to links and/or thumbnails.

Alternative Shortcodes
(…)

It’s just talking about 2 options in the plugin administration.

I tried to make a search on the Other Notes page, with keyworld ??random?? or ??order??, but I found nothing else than the Lists section, who talk about lists-mode parameters but dont list (sic) this parameters, as explained.

Sorry, maybe I’m not clear in english, it’s absolutely possible.

By the way, maybe you could juste give me the parameter to ??have just one played (but picked randomly)???

No, you’re right. The “Other Notes” section on here does not match the included README file – it would appear I’ve accidentally created two sections named “Further Embedding Options” and www.remarpro.com has overwritten the first section with the second.

If you get a chance it might be worth digging out the README in the plugin folder – I’ll fix this for the next release. However, meantime, here are the details that you need to know…

list – if you’ve specified your own list, use this to select the way the videos should be output. Should be random (display videos in a random order), single (show just one video, randomly picked from the list) or order (show each video in the original order – this is the default)

Ah ah, thanks!
That work… except: it’s each time the same video. If I refresh the page, or open it in another browser or computer, the video is alway the same.
To change the video I need to change the video’s order in Lists settings page.

So, it’s not random. The video appears to be chosen randomly on my list (it’s not the first one, not the last one, it’s anyone, i.e. the 3th, changing when I change the videos order. I.e. if a video of a subway, 3th on my list, is played, if I move this video on 6th place and refresh the post, that’s now the 5nd (or anyone else) video of list who’s continually played.

It’s alway the same video who’s played.

It’s alway the subway video who’s display (until I change the list’s order).
But I have 5 videos on the list :

DaUppUJmuXw
frY8UCCExM8
nJQCoqNdw6M (<- subway)
-9olxkkrNNA
_OAYa-DbAy8

If I change the video’s order, a new one will be picked up randomly to be played each time the page will be loaded.
The same if I enter the same code on another page, to display the same list, it’s the same video who play: https://www.visionarium.fr/erreur-404-liste/erreur-404-2-2/

Hmmm, I think I know what this is. Go into YouTube -> General Settings and find the setting of “Video Cache”. Set this to 0 and save it.

What happens with the video now?

IT’S ALIVE!

Thanks a lot, for your time and your help!

Wonderful plugin =D

Well, okay, yes, but not ideally! I got you to turn off the caching. I realised I was caching the output, hence why you were seeing the same video each time. I need to fix that.

When 5.0.1 is released, please put that Video Cache back to its original value ??

Okay. Well noted.
