I use the youtube native youtube player plugin (https://ionicframework.com/docs/native/youtube-video-player/)
In Android all is fine, it plays everything, In Ios it only plays some id’s, but most not.
Latest CLI, latest ionic version.
This id always works: cjIvu7e6Wq8
this one does not… PYxp6OIEZlk (among others)
I am really stuck with this, there are no open issues for the plugin or player related to this
Did anyone run into this as well?
Ok, I tracked it down to the ionic/native plugin using a 3 year version of this lib
I think the management of the native libs can REALLY need some more careful management.
Will have to fork to make stuff work now…
100% agree. Though I’ve done nothing about it except be more cautious. Hopefully Ionic puts more focus into the interface with Cordova once they complete their current PWA push.
Ok, I went along and created a fork with the updated plugin… (man, some learning curve 
If you want a working native player and use this plugin:
Use this repo to install:
ionic cordova plugin add https://github.com/Remco75/CordovaYoutubeVideoPlayer
And again, man plugin / dependency management is crappy in ionic / cordova
