Hi, I am starting to use this gem for a recent project. It's very good, I just had a problem related to youtube urls for playlists.

When I copied/pasted a playlist, youtube gives me the following format:
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLxg-INKFfByBR49TtCz1A9t4qCm5msNki

In the docs I find that you work with this format:
http://www.youtube.com/playlist?p=PL9hW1uS6HUftLdHI6RIsaf-iXTm09qnEr

So, when I try to use the first one I get this error:

Url is not valid, video_id is not found: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLxg-INKFfByBR49TnCz1M9t4qCm5msNki

The problem is fixed only changing the format, which is OK for me, but the users usually copy/paste the URLs directly from Youtube.

Hi @g3ortega,

I clicked your first link and it says "The playlist does not exist". Are you sure you got the URL right?

Ah, okay. I understand your issue now. It is the &list=. Thanks for the report. I'll get a fix in soon.

For future reference, a proper URL to test with:
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9hW1uS6HUftLdHI6RIsaf-iXTm09qnEr
