Controls:
The controls in this section let you play, pause or stop a video. You
can also seek to a specific point in the video by entering a number in
the Seek to field, which specifies the time offset
from the beginning of the video when playback should begin.
This section lets you modify the size of the player, using the
setSize(width, height) function. Typically, this
function would only be useful in an ActionScript application. In a
JavaScript application, the resized player will still be inserted in
the object that contains the video player, even if that object is
smaller or larger than the resized player.
Note that on this page, the maximum dimensions for the player are 640 pixels wide and 360 pixels high – 640x360 in widescreen (16:9) format or 480x360 in standard (4:3) format. Statistics:
The information in this section describes the status of the video
player and the video being played (or the last video to play). The
following list shows the API function associated with each field
in this section:
This page calls the getVideoUrl() and
getEmbedCode() functions when the player is ready to
play a video. These functions are called again if you load or cue a
video.
If you call getVideoUrl() after a video has played for at least 10 seconds, the URL will include a parameter that specifies the time offset at which the player should begin playing the video.

Quality:
The Available levels field in the Playback
statistics section below lists the available quality levels
for this video. You can use this pulldown to call the
setPlaybackQuality() function and change the quality
of the video that is playing. When you change the quality, the video
will pause and then restart from the beginning.
If you select a quality level that is unavailable, YouTube will select the most appropriate quality level available. For example, if you try to set the quality to small, but the only levels available are medium and large, YouTube will set the quality level to medium.
Position: Play | Pause | Stop seconds
Volume: Mute | Unmute | Set volume: (0-100) [--]
The mute/unmute controls are self-explanatory. The Playback
statistics section should indicate whether the player is
muted – see the Volume on/off field.
You can also adjust the volume of the player by entering a number between 0 and 100 in the Set volume field. The volume will change when you tab (or click) out of the field.
Volume: Mute | Unmute | (Tab out of the input box to update the volume.)
