I provided you a link to the specification in my previous post.  It tells you how the data is formatted.  There are several topics in this forum that discuss how to decode URL-Encoded data.  Although I don't know for sure, there should be topics on how to split out form data.  It is pretty simple.  The specification I linked also describes how the form data is separated.

The response contains many different types of data: strings, numbers, urls, and json.   What specific data are you looking for?

Good luck with that.  If you need help with AutoIt script(s), then come back with your script(s) and your specific issues and I'll be happy to help.

Not sure why you would need the URLs.  If you are trying to get access to them in order to download the videos, then that would be against Youtube's policies which means helping you do so here would be against AutoIt forum policies.
