Not sure what you are trying to achieve here. Videos on youtube have code to allow you to embed a video into your own website. (Click on the word embed under the video you want to use).

There are lots of examples of this - if you can't find any I can send you some.

Regarding the editing - if you are trying to automate this so that you have something that downloads and edits a video and then re-uploads - afaik that would be a serious bit of work.
