Convert YouTube Playlist To RSS Feed

The YouTube API provides a number of RSS feeds for various aspects of the YouTube community such as, Top Rated videos and Most Favourited video, plus some peronsal feeds for such things as 'your uploaded videos', but nowhere is there a working tool that provides individual playlist RSS feeds based on a single parameter.

Well, now there is. All you need to use this tool is the ID of the playlist, which can be after the 'p=' in the URL of a playlist video. This unique ID can provide you with all of the video information from that playlist. Use the form below to generate an RSS feed and video template so you can put the playlist on your own website. Or use the RSS with such applications as TVersity and stream the playlist directly to your computer, or even through your Xbox or PS3!

Please note: If you don't know the ID of the playlist you would like to create a feed for please type in your username (or the username of the owner of the playlist, if it is public) and we will fetch you a list of currently active playlists.

  Any way you can write it so it can pull 50+ feeds?

  HI, will the feed update every time i upload a new video to the playlist or is it just going to display the content that is in the playlist at the time I create the rss feed? Thanks

  Does it only show 25 feed entries at one time?

    Hi Troy,

    At the moment, yes. The data I use seems to only give me 25 at once. It's on my development plan to improve it so it returns as many as are in the playlist you are requesting. Watch this space!
