How to Extract a VideoID From YouTube Direct
Each video uploaded on Google YouTube contains a unique video identification number. This identification number appends to the end of the URL, so you can extract the value from the URL. You must have the link to the video to extract the video ID, which you can use to link to the video on your Web page or send it to friends in family in email.
