[YouTube-API] Re: YouTube IFRAMES Broken on iPad/iPhone

Hello,

We can reproduce the resizing issue, and the engineering team is
working on a resolution for that.

We have not been able to reproduce the issue leading to the "You need
to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video" message,
though. Can you confirm that you're still seeing that? If so, are you
seeing it when using UIWebKit to display the iframe embed within an
app, or just when using iOS Safari to navigate to a web page with the
iframe embed on it?

Cheers,
-Jeff Posnick, YouTube API Team
