I uploaded a new version of WP YouTube Lyte to the WordPress SVN repository earlier today. The markdown parser seems to be in a bad mood today and the changes in the readme.txt (the changelog, first and foremost) aren’t visible, so here’s what’s new in this release:
- you can now change player size from the default one (as proposed by Edward Owen); httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_SQkWbRublY#stepSize=-2 or httpv://youtu.be/_SQkWbRublY#stepSize=+1 will change player size to one of the other available sizes in your choosen format (4:3 or 16:9)
- added a smaller 16:9 size and re-arranged player sizes on the options-screen
- Bugfix: changed lyte-div ID to force it to be xhtml-compliant (ID’s can’t start with a digit, hat tip: Ruben of ytuquelees.net
- Bugfix: added version in js-call to avoid caching issues (lyte-min.js?ver=0.8.1) as experienced by some users and reported by Ryan of givemeshred.com
- Upgrade to the “bonus feature” to fix things (consider this beta though)
- Languages: added Hebrew (by Sagive SEO) and Catalan (by Ruben of ytuquelees.net) translations and added completed Spanish version (thanks to Paulino Brener from Social Media Travelers)
- tested succesfully on WordPress 3.3 (beta 2)
The (slightly smaller) lyte-embedded YouTube video to go with this release: “She wants” by Metronomy (very Japan-esque by the way):
As always, your feedback is welcome in the comments or via the contact form!

Best Regards
you can add it to the params inside wp-content/plugins/wp-youtube-lyte/lyte/lyte-min.js. look for
“?autoplay=1&rel=0&egm=0&iv_load_policy=3&probably_logged_in=false&hd=”
and change that into
“?autoplay=1&rel=0&egm=0&iv_load_policy=3&probably_logged_in=false&showinfo=0&hd=”
hope this helps!

Dear Frank,
thanks for this nice plugin. It is possible that your plugin works with “WordPress Video Plugin”(http://www.daburna.de/blog/2006/12/13/wordpress-video-plugin/) ?
or must i edit all articles with youtube videos in it?
you’ll have to edit your old articles i’m afraid, as “wordpress video plugin” is not youtube-specific and as wp youtube lyte only works with httpv and httpa-links.
Hi Frank,
Thanks. I have suggestion to make the youtube videos work with a z-index overlay.
Where you append the iframe to the dom in your js file. Can you add wmode=opaque as the first query param?
If anything were to overlay the video while it is playing, the youtube video will always be on top. i.e a drop down menu or light box would be behind the playing video.

Thanks for the input, I’ll look into this for what might become 1.0.0 🙂
Frank,
Firstly, let me say I LOVE this plug-in. I have the widget in the sidebar, and used the bookmarklet to install it in posts. How the heck do I resize this puppy? I am NOT code savvy, but follow directions well. Please list specifics, ie “add this code to your index.php, etc” and specify what I need to update and where (before or after certain tags, etc). The vids need to be about 450×265 to fit inside my content areas. I’d also like them centered.

Sure;
$pSize[9]['a']=true;
$pSize[9]['w']=450;
$pSize[9]['h']=265;
$pSize[9]['t']=__("especially for julu","wp-youtube-lyte");
$pSize[9]['f']="169";
The downside: this’ll get lost when upgrading.
The upside: the next version should ship with flexible size options (free to choose + responsive, to work better on mobile)
Hope this helps!
