I used to get it normally with V2 but what's the alternative in API V3 ? if not available, is there any hack to do it ? eg. guess the URL ?
Note : V2 is Deprecated now, so i can't depend on it .

1All solutions use api v2, you can't have (yet) RTSP with api v3.– mpgnCommented Aug 4, 2014 at 12:49

Yes, this is another of the great advantages of v3 API. Other benefits from this API:
- No more multiple screenshots to choose from
- No more video duration; must be requested in second query
- Video duration encrypted in ISO 8601 format to ensure you can't can convert it to seconds
The lack of RTSP value is just another one. I bet that in API v4 they'll probably hide the video title as well, to ensure the API is entirely useless.
API v3 doesn't return RTSP, your best bet is to implement iFrame player and it will stream the appropriate format for you.

Iframes won't work on non-Android mobile devices. RTSP is absolutely required and cannot be replaced by cheap tricks like this, anyway I +voted for your good intentions.– andreszsCommented May 6, 2015 at 23:34
