Audio only Youtube player is against the Youtube terms of service. You have to display the video at a certain minimum size.
A friend of mine made something similar to this, but audio only, and - if I remember correctly - got a cease and desist. (Or, at least, he got some kind of "you're in breach of terms of service, cut it out" message, which freaked him out and prompted him to take the project offline).
- vishaldpatel 13y agoYes, I can see how it would annoy some content creators too. I'll check out the TOS for sure, thanks.
- Amadou 13y agoI'm just speculating out loud here... They can mandate a minimum playback size, but do they mandate a minimum playback fps? If you played the video back at a rate of 1/60fps (dropping all intermediate frames) would that satisfy their requirements and still save battery life or whatever for the people who would prefer not to see any video at all?
- Fando 13y agoJust make it simple. Give users the ability to toggle the video display. That shouldn't violate any agreements.
