In this tutorial we will cover how to create a YouTube player in C# using Web View. In our last tutorial we looked at how to create a YouTube player using FLASH and ACTIVEX OBJECTS, which is awesome but it’s always good to know more ways to do something. So what is web view. Is basic terms it’s a simple web browser built into C# / Visual Studio can be used as an object and has its own properties we can modify. Full code for the tutorial is available in next page.

Note – You can follow this tutorial but please note Google has stopped supporting flash on their youtube videos. The videos might not play. We have another tutorial on creating a youtube alarm clock and thats been tested with the new framework and it works well.
