if you want to get playlists from gdata.youtube.com then use this API as:

http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/playlists/PASS_PLAYLIST_ID_HERE?v=2&alt=json

then change your url as:

http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/playlists/PL34F010EEF9D45FB8?v=2&alt=json

buddy not getting any data..why? – Udhikriman Dec 19 '12 at 10:04
@Udhikriman : maybe JSON String is different so you will need to change in current json parsing code – ρяσѕρєя K Dec 19 '12 at 10:07
I have just replaced the url now using this: http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/playlists/PL34F010EEF9D45FB8?v=2&alt=json – Udhikriman Dec 19 '12 at 10:08
@Udhikriman : just replacing URL not work you will need to change json parsing code according to new json string – ρяσѕρєя K Dec 19 '12 at 10:10

if you want to retrive playlist data from YT Playlist then use

    var feedUrl = "http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/playlists/"+nPlaylistID+"?max-results=8";
    if (result.error || !result.url) 
    {
$('#divid').hide();
return;
}

  var feed = new google.feeds.Feed(result.url);
  feed.setNumEntries(50);
  feed.load(function (result) {

   for (var i = 0; i < result.feed.entries.length; i++) {
var entry = result.feed.entries[i];
var vidhash = /=(.*)&(.*)$/.exec (entry.link)[1];

  container.append('<div><a href="http://www.youtube.com/embed/'+vidhash+'" class="html5lightbox" title="'+entry.title+'"><img src="http://img.youtube.com/vi/'+vidhash+'/0.jpg" /><br />'+entry.title+'</a></div>\n');
