Force youtube video from UiView to play

Question

I'm creating an app which include youtube videos. For this app i need a way to force the youtube video to open. how can i force it to start?

i've looked at this:

webView.userInteractionEnabled = NO;

But cant seem to figure out how to use it.

This is the code:

stringUrl = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=%@", youtubeId[0]];
headerTitle.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@", theTitle[0]];
NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:stringUrl];
NSURLRequest *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url];
[self.webView loadRequest:request];

since you're using a UIWebView here and not a UIView, I'm thinking your question is [*actually* a duplicate of this one here](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15717754/objective-c-how-to-autoplay-a-youtube-video-in-a-uiwebview). — Michael Dautermann, Jan 04 '14 at 11:40
are you want to play the youtube video in mpmovie player or want to open it in webview with embeded youtube url — kamalesh kumar yadav, Jan 04 '14 at 11:42

i want to open it in full screen like when you click on the youtube video inside my webview. I think thats mpmovieplayer — user3140296, Jan 04 '14 at 11:44
for this you have to use youtube parser by which you can achive and then you will pass the parsed url to mpmoviewplayer to open it directly it is not possible bcz youtube does not allow. — kamalesh kumar yadav, Jan 04 '14 at 11:46

Here you will get working example project in which it is using HCYoutubeParser to parse the youtube url

https://github.com/hellozimi/HCYoutubeParser

form here you can down load working code and you can check it on simulator and iphone both even it will explain how to use it.

just by looking at the comments of that repo.. i can tell that it's a very non-stable solution – abbood Mar 20 '14 at 10:19
