I need some help with Youtube API and embeded videos. I want to stop all iframe videos (here i have taken only 3, but there are several videos)running on the current page when a new youtube video is clicked. At one point of time, only one iframe youtube video should run. I have gone thruogh documentation [https://developers.google.com/youtube/js_api_reference][1] and was able to write till here...

UPDATED
- onStateChange event is not getting triggered(working)
- In this example i have 3 videos, in reality it has more videos instead of writing onPlayerStateChange for each video..is it possible to use an array for all the videos..and in the function onPlayerStateChange, to write player[].stopVideo() and this.playvideo()..something of this sort..(help required) please see this fiddle http://jsfiddle.net/LakshmiV/kn5Sf/ Please help.
You can do something like this...
Give every iframe a class so that it can be identified as an iframe for youtube player. Here I have given "yt_players"
Now you can use the below code...
Have updated the code...This should be of help to you.

Great answer by Coby to a similar question at https://stackoverflow.com/a/13260520/835822
Using an attribute selector you can target any iframe that comes from Youtube and then using jQuery's each you can loop through all of them.
});
Good concept, but event.target.a.src doesn't work! Changed it to event.target.getVideoUrl() and it works fine. check it out here
