Introduction

This here is a YouTube video searcher. It returns the first three videos of your search result.

It returns the Title, Date Added, User, Length, Views, Rating, and URL for each video.

Syntax: [!YouTube | /YouTube] [Search Criteria]

If you want to change how many videos it returns, you can change "if (%n. [ $+ [ $sockname ] ] >= 3) {" to whatever number of videos you want it to return.

Here's some screens:

Napa didn't say that :|

Well, if u want to pm, u could change "set %ychan $chan" to "set %ychan $nick" and I said in the Intro,

Quote:

If you want to change how many videos it returns, you can change "if (%N == 3)" to whatever number of videos you want to return

so you would make it "if (%N == 1)" :P

The code does its job, looks nice. You should still advance your coding a little.
Look into $sockerr and more checks, socket failures etc.

Yeah, it stripped the backslashes again. I resubmitted it, and it should work now.

Also, if this occurs again, the intro says:

Hopefully it works now

I updated the Rating part of the snippet. It was inaccurate at times, and the method I was using wasn't really that great. So I used regex and inc'd the %var N times to count the star img's with a lot less coding ;)

It looks like YouTube updated its layout a little, and the titles of videos are including "qliconalt='blah'" at the end.

So I updated the script, and everything should be fine now

Nice, 10/10, you should make a google one like this aswell. Also, what about something like !youtube -10, and it'll show the top 10 results, or like !youtube -5 it'll show the top 5, that'd be nice.

Updated due to YouTube's new way of showing the ratings. It's also more precise than half intervals now, so it can show 3.7 instead of 3.5 for example.
