API is not supported anymore? return result is https://youtube.com/devicesupport

When I do query by author, it returns this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKY3scPIMd8
Does this mean the API is not supported anymore?

How can I query for video now?

Same thing is happening to me, i'm guessing the code needs an update.

The library is using the deprecated Youtube API v2, that's why it's broken. There's a PR to add this to the README but the repo owner did not merge it yet: #210

I'm going to try this gem that supports v3: https://github.com/Fullscreen/yt

@cqcn1991 i've just tested in my machine the code that's giving your problems and it's working correctly.

I have similar problem. method video_by returns error 410, which causes app to render status 500

Same here. I can't access youtube resources via youtube_it gem, but can via other gems.

Is there an alternative to this abandoned gem here?
