    You need to be more specific... Do you want to allow players to stream your game directly to youtube or stream a youtube Video to a texture in your game so you can have things like TVs and Video walls in your game?

    To stream a Video to your game you would need to some web API that you can integrate to allow you to have a web browser in your game. Some web APIs allow you to draw a browser to a selected texture in your game.

    thank James, I want to stream a youtube Video to a texture in your game so you can have things like TVs and Video walls in your game. The big problem here with me is how can i get "video list URLs" from Youtube?

    You would just need some Web Browser SDK that would allow you to do that. You could have the entire youtube website be accessible from the"tv" for them to select what they want to watch.

    OR you could get the video URL manually, but, that probably isn't really what you want...
