Meaning of Youtube url ?v=some_code



What does the part after the https://www.youtube.com/watch?v= mean ?


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=



Is it some hashcode or something?



Any idea how it's calculated ?

The value of the v parameter is the Video ID. It seems that the process which produces this ID isn't widely published. Even the fact that it is 11 characters long isn't something that is set in stone and even the ID's of current video might change in the future.

You can read about it further here.

There are two answers there. The first is giving a short answer stating that not much, if anything, is known about the IDs. The other answer is by someone trying to reverse engineer the video ID, explaining his process.



Its Bypassing Youtube Regional Filtering



Some videos are only available in certain parts of the world. Your IP Address is used to determine your location and then allow or deny access to the video. Change the url from http://www.youtube.com/watch?v= to http://www.youtube.com/v/

It's quite clear from the question that he is asking about the value of the v parameter, which is the video id. Your answer is unrelated to the question asked.

This is a url request notation. Generally it is in this format www.youtube.com/?v=something.
"/?" What is after the question mark symbol are the queries
all the queries can be separated by "&" symbol

for example
suppose I am fetching data from a weather website. Then I will write www.nameofwebsite/?place=London&unit=metric

This means that I want to fetch data from the website "name of website" where the place is London and the unit of data is "metric"





It's quite clear from the question that he is asking about the value of the v parameter specifically in YouTube URIs, not generally about the format of URIs of "web addresses".

Keycloak server returning user_not_found error when user is already imported with LDAP

Keycloak server returning user_not_found error when user is already imported with LDAP I am currently running a keycloak server as a service in a kubernetes cluster. I can access it perfectly with the initial keycloak admin account and used it to setup a new realm using LDAP for User Federation. The connection and queries seem to work fine as a I can search for Users and they pop up with their correct username, first name, last name and e-mail so all seemed fine. When I then log out and try to log in with a normal user account that exists in the AD and has been imported I just find get the following error: WARN [org.keycloak.events] (default task-8) type=LOGIN_ERROR, realmId=master, clientId=security-admin-console, userId=null, ipAddress=<my ip>, error=user_not_found, auth_method=openid-connect, auth_type=code, redirect_uri=http://myserver.com/auth/admin/master/console/#/realms/MyRealm, code_id=a8ca7f06-dfec-4e6e-8f6b-74eb871f71da, username=myUser So it seems that in some way wh

PHP parse/syntax errors; and how to solve them?

PHP parse/syntax errors; and how to solve them? Everyone runs into syntax errors. Even experienced programmers make typos. For newcomers it's just part of the learning process. However, it's often easy to interpret error messages such as: PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '{' in index.php on line 20 The unexpected symbol isn't always the real culprit. But the line number gives a rough idea where to start looking. Always look at the code context . The syntax mistake often hides in the mentioned or in previous code lines . Compare your code against syntax examples from the manual. While not every case matches the other. Yet there are some general steps to solve syntax mistakes . This references summarized the common pitfalls: Unexpected T_STRING Unexpected T_VARIABLE Unexpected '$varname' (T_VARIABLE) Unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING Unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE Unexpected $end Unexpected T_FUNCTION… Unexpected { { Unexpected } } Unexpe

How to scale/resize CVPixelBufferRef in objective C, iOS

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP How to scale/resize CVPixelBufferRef in objective C, iOS I am trying to resize an image from a CVPixelBufferRef to 299x299. Ideally is would also crop the image. The original pixelbuffer is 640x320, the goal is to scale/crop to 299x299 without loosing aspect ratio (crop to center). I found code to resize a UIImage in objective c, but none to resize a CVPixelBufferRef. I have found various very complicated examples of object C many different image types, but none specifically for resizing a CVPixelBufferRef. What is the easiest/best way to do this, please include the exact code. ... I tried the answer from selton, but this did not work as the resulting type in the scaled buffer is not correct (goes into assert code), OSType sourcePixelFormat = CVPixelBufferGetPixelFormatType(pixelBuffer); int doReverseChannels; if (kCVPixelFormatType_32ARGB == sourcePixelFormat) { doReverseChannels = 1; } else if (kCVPixelFormatType_32BGRA == sourcePixelFormat) {
