Create custom players in Youtube
I used to be able to create custom players in youtube but they seem to have made an UI overhaul and there is no longer a button to press to create custom players, at least not that I can find. This means that I can't post sifts with multiple parts any more which is a darned shame.
It used to be that you simply created a playlist in youtube, added videos to it and in your account on YT you then clicked a button to create a custom player. This is also what YT official help says I am supposed to do. But since there is no button to press to create the custom player... Well it sucks.
So if any smart sifters can check it out and see if they can find out where this wonderful tool has disappeared to I would be eternally grateful, or at least be grateful for the next couple of days.

But it is old and does not seem to work any more as described above.

Crakego into your profile, go to the playlist, and there's a "edit settings for playlist" or something similar (mine is in danish), a minimized options tab. in there is a text bar with the embed code for the playlist.

Click your name, choose "my videos"
one in there, choose playlist
click the playlist you've made
choose "play all"
expand the playlist box in the top right corner
choose "See all videos"
there's your embed.
Yeah, it's a hassle.
thegrimsleeperTo save a video you're watching on youtube into a playlist just click the "Save to" button below the video. You will see a list of all your playlists and if you scroll to the bottom you will see "Create a new playlist..."

To embed a playlist click your username and select "My videos"
on the left side of the page you can select "Playlists"
then select the playlist you want to embed and click "Edit Playlist Info" and then finally you will see the embed code for the playlist
That is the only way I know to embed playlists.
