+
+    Additionally, playlists can have "title", "description" and "id" attributes
+    with the same semantics as videos (see above).
+
+
+    _type "multi_video" indicates that there are multiple videos that
+    form a single show, for examples multiple acts of an opera or TV episode.
+    It must have an entries key like a playlist and contain all the keys
+    required for a video at the same time.
+
+
+    _type "url" indicates that the video must be extracted from another
+    location, possibly by a different extractor. Its only required key is:
+    "url" - the next URL to extract.
+    The key "ie_key" can be set to the class name (minus the trailing "IE",
+    e.g. "Youtube") if the extractor class is known in advance.
+    Additionally, the dictionary may have any properties of the resolved entity
+    known in advance, for example "title" if the title of the referred video is
+    known ahead of time.
+
+
+    _type "url_transparent" entities have the same specification as "url", but
+    indicate that the given additional information is more precise than the one
+    associated with the resolved URL.
+    This is useful when a site employs a video service that hosts the video and
+    its technical metadata, but that video service does not embed a useful
+    title, description etc.
