NAME

WWW::YouTube::Info::Simple - simple interface to WWW::YouTube::Info

SYNOPSIS

Perhaps a little code snippet?

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;

use WWW::YouTube::Info::Simple;

# id taken from YouTube video URL
my $id = 'foobar';

my $yt = WWW::YouTube::Info::Simple->new($id);

# hash reference holds values gained via http://youtube.com/get_video_info?video_id=foobar
my $info = $yt->get_info();
# this is basically an inheritance to get_info() at WWW::YouTube::Info
# $info->{title}          # e.g.: Foo+bar+-+%27Foobar%27
# $info->{author}         # e.g.: foobar
# $info->{keywords}       # e.g.: Foo%2Cbar%2CFoobar
# $info->{length_seconds} # e.g.: 60
# $info->{fmt_map}        # e.g.: 22%2F1280x720%2F9%2F0%2F115%2C35%2F854x480%2F9%2F0%2F115%2C34%2F640x360%2F9%2F0%2F115%2C5%2F320x240%2F7%2F0%2F0
# $info->{fmt_url_map}    # e.g.: 22%7Chttp%3A%2F%2Fv14.lscache1.c.youtube.com%2Fvideoplayback%3Fip%3D131.0.0.0 ..
# $info->{fmt_stream_map} # e.g.: 22%7Chttp%3A%2F%2Fv14.lscache1.c.youtube.com%2Fvideoplayback%3Fip%3D131.0.0.0 ..

# array reference holds values keywords
my $keys = $yt->get_keywords();
# $keys->[0] # e.g.: Foo
# $keys->[1] # e.g.: bar
# ..

# hash reference holds values quality -> resolution
my $res = $yt->get_resolution();
# $res->{35} # e.g.: 854x480
# $res->{22} # e.g.: 1280x720
# ..

# URL and masquerading decoded title
my $title = $yt->get_title(); # e.g.: Foo bar - 'Foobar'

# hash reference holds values quality -> url
my $url = $yt->get_url();
# $url->{35} e.g.: http://v14.lscache1.c.youtube.com/videoplayback?ip=131.0.0.0 ..
# $url->{22} e.g.: http://v14.lscache1.c.youtube.com/videoplayback?ip=131.0.0.0 ..
# ..

# Remark:
# You might want to check $info->{status} before further workout,
# as some videos have copyright issues indicated, for instance, by
# $info->{status} ne 'ok'.

I guess its pretty much self-explanatory ..
