Do you have any experience with the latest YouTube api?

I have tried practically all of the suggestions found on this forum to play a youtube video in a simpleexoplayerview and received large text files (> 40KB) listing a.o. "dash_manifest_version=5" and "html5_stale_dash_manifest_retry_factor=1.0" and 12 instances starting with "signature", but no "dahmpd"

Which pieces do I have to look for and isolate to construct a useful player1.CreateDashSource string?

Thanks for your help,
john m.

Thanks Victor,
yes I tried it and it works but unfortunately not for my purposes as YouTube takes full possession of the screen.
I need to be able to add some buttons and scroll view on the side, i.e. I would like to use the ExoPlayer instead.
