Thanks for distilling it down to that for me. It's now implemented and tested successfully.

The actual API call isn't that bad, it's just https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/videos?part=contentDetails&id=$UbyKywWvlCE&key=(your API key)

I couldn't test it though, I haven't registered for API access... is that the bullshit you were referring to? I just get keyInvalid

Ugh. Wish I somehow was privy to information like that... Thanks for finding that, eric.
Fuck their API bullshit. I'm just scraping the YT video page for the duration now.
Fixed.
@lucky760 Im no computer guy but this update seems to have come out about the time the time stamp problem started, and it mentions API.

YouTube is definitely returning a duration of 236 seconds for all videos. Example: https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos/UbyKywWvlCE?v=2 (search for yt:duration).
Hi @lucky760, did something to do with youtube lengths change around midday on Wednesday? I've noticed that a surprisingly large number of submissions since that time have been marked as length=3:56 by @siftbot, although their actual lengths vary. The only vids I saw since then with lengths other than 3:56 had been assigned a length by a human.

Nothing's changed on our end of things, so perhaps YouTube's API has a bug. I'll look into it.
Thanks!

I wouldn't think too much of it. ant is just very religious and sensitive when it comes to his god.

He's down-voted me for saying much less.
What is the world coming to when a man is downvoted for the simple act of advocating the murder of God
