[YouTube-API] Mp4 URL for flashless devices missing also html5 capabilities

Hello,

I saw several older posts regarding retrieving an URL for direct
access to MP4. For flashfree devices, which support MP4 h.264, it
would be great to be able to access youtube also.

There is the iPhone for example, which can access the MP4 version of
the videos. There are other devices with no html5 capabilities and
missing flash support. TVs for example. Is there a way to access the
MP4 version of the videos without those hacky ways available on the
net?

Adobe is even ending development of flash and there are many MP4
capable TVs out there, which lack of flash support and still do not
have html5 support included.

Do you have an update on providing MP4 URLs?

I mean in general the devices available support MP4, youtube supports
MP4 (works on iPhone), but there is bad youtube support on providing
just that simple URL/player.
