fix vid_regex for video_id that includes hyphen #47

Closed dopin closed 12 years ago

video_id sometimes includes hyphen like this: http://youtu.be/63ASo-iq6aw

Agree, this is pretty critical

also, I'd used earlier much complex regexp and am not sure it is necessary but you should check this too,

url =~ /^.*((youtu.be\/)|(v\/)|(vi\/)|(\/u\/\w\/)|(embed\/)|(watch\?))\??v?=?([^#\&\?]*).*/

I do realy know that all links like

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5R_liS-PEHw http://www.youtube.com/v/5R_liS-PEHw , embed links, etc. should be recognizible by YoutubeIt

Please, release hyphen support ASAP
