The last thing I'm testing on my app before uploading to iTunes is the YouTube playlist, but the videos never will load. The playlist shows everything, but nothing will load, I just get an endless Loading spinner, whether on 4G or wireless. When I go to YouTube, the playlist plays right up immediately, so it's not a connection issue. Any ideas?

Will update the code to hide videos that are not enabled for mobile in the next update.

Do I need to use a different playlist code for mobile access than what the directions say on the plugin? I'm just stumped here!

Even so - of the entire playlist, only one was blocked when I access from mobile, the rest load up just fine, just not from my app. Any further pointers? All help appreciated!!!
