Hi,

You can get the video id from the xml file is it right. Then its simple to play.
1) First create a movieclip and place outside the stage area. And name it as "loadmc".
2)Then place a video object on to the stage. and name it as "videoPlayBack".
3) Attach these codes in the first Frame.

Code:

	var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
	nc.connect(null);
	var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
	ns.setBufferTime(5);
	videoPlayBack.attachVideo(ns);

	//http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_GADQv3vKs

	var _mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader ();
	var _mcllistener:Object = new Object();
	_mcl.addListener(_mcllistener);
	
	_mcllistener.onLoadInit=function(target:MovieClip){
		var _lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars ();
		_lv.decode (target._url.split ("?")[1]);
		var str:String = "http://www.youtube.com/get_video.php?";
		str += "video_id=" + _lv.video_id;
    	str += "&t=" + _lv.t;
		trace(_lv.t);
		clearInterval(my_interval);
		ns.close();
		ns.play(str);
 	    _mcl.unloadClip (target);
	}
	
	function getTrack_Id(id){
		_mcl.loadClip("http://www.youtube.com/v/"+id,loadmc);
	}
	getTrack_Id("Z5hmHDXiwA4")

4) In this "Z5hmHDXiwA4" is the video id.

I tried that example too but it seems to get stuck trying to contact youtube.com

Then I found this code which is much much simpler. Don't need to create any elements just past the actionscript in the first frame. You may need to test this on a server to see it really work.

Code:

var id = "4YBxeDN4tbk";
this.createEmptyMovieClip("video_mc", 10000);
this.video_mc.loadMovie("http://www.youtube.com/v/"+id);
