For one like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ob9LHPEaKY you can type
ob9LHPEaKY into the YouTube search gadget and it will find that clip.
And for https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-_qS_3KXBA typing just this
_qS_3KXBA bit into the search gadget works.
Go Canes:
If you put the full 11-character "key" in double-quotes in the youtube
search field it should work.
"-ob9LHPEaKY" worked (11 chars), but "D-_qS_3KXBA" (11 chars) didn't,
though "-_qS_3KXBA" (10 chars) does.
$ echo -n '-ob9LHPEaKY' | base64 -d
base64: invalid input
$ echo -n 'D-_qS_3KXBA' | base64 -d
base64: invalid input
$ echo -n '-_qS_3KXBA' | base64 -d
base64: invalid input
It's "web-safe" base64, so you have to translate two characters. It
should also have a "=" at the end to make it 12 characters, but the
decoder seems to accept it anyway. However, you're only going to get 7
bytes of binary data. It's not something readable.
echo -n '-ob9LHPEaKY' | tr _- /+ | base64 -d | od -tx1
