YouTube API player does not play some videos

Question

What does error code 0 mean in YouTube Flash API? It occurs when trying to play some videos with the API. Other error codes are explained in the API Reference, but not error code 0.

How do I make the YouTube player play all videos, just like it does on YouTube Player Demo?

I believe the answer to your question is:

"domain-level white/blacklisting is not exposed via the API currently."

The accepted answer to the question "v3 api returns blocked content even with videoEmbedable = True" should also apply.
