Should be pretty easy. Once you capture the YouTube URL, just pass it to a
view and then:
=== view.html ===
<iframe id="ytplayer" type="text/html" width="640" height="390"
src="{{=video.url}}?autoplay=1&origin=http://example.com";
frameborder="0"/>
=== controller.py ===
def play_video():
video = db.video(request.args(0))
return dict(video=video)
video.url would need to be something like
"http://www.youtube.com/embed/u1zgFlCw8Aw";. You can store the whole URL or
just the YouTube code ("u1zgFlCw8Aw").
