i got this far but it doesnt get the necesary info i need like video duration....

Answer 1

The duration is stored in the yt:duration node, under the media:group aggregate.

What language are you using? There are client libraries created by Google for Java, .Net, Python, PHP, and Objective C. There is also WebService::YouTube on CPAN if you are using Perl.

Answer 2

this was already seen in multiple flavors, simplexml and domdocument : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2212009/simplexml-returning-multiple-objects-how-can-i-get-the-data
