Create a custom block. Then you can fully customize what is shown. 
Did you use the YouTube field or just a the content field with YouTube URLs pasted into it?

You can set the the title or content field to “not required”. Then you can leave them blank. 

However, I would suggest to use the title field and really enter a fitting title for each video, even if you not show it in the block currently. It’s what it is used for the URL and the HTML title of the record and so on. It’s just something that should be there. Every record should have a title.

I will use the youtube field type for the content

would you be so kind and show me how to make the block template to show the content records only? 

this is the template of the block i created, but it shows the title field on forum sidebar and i want it to show the content records only 

{{if !empty( $records ) }}
	<h3 class='ipsWidget_title ipsType_reset'>{$title}</h3>
	{{if $orientation == 'vertical'}}
		<div class='ipsPad_half ipsWidget_inner'>
			<ul class='ipsDataList ipsDataList_reducedSpacing'>
				{{foreach $records as $record}}
					<li class='ipsDataItem'>
						<div class='ipsDataItem_icon ipsPos_top'>
							{template="userPhoto" group="global" app="core" params="$record->author(), 'tiny'"}
						</div>
						<div class='ipsDataItem_main'>
							<div class="ipsCommentCount ipsPos_right {{if ( $record->record_comments ) === 0}}ipsFaded{{endif}}" data-ipsTooltip title='{lang="replies_number" pluralize="$record->record_comments"}'>{expression="$record->record_comments"}</div>
							<a href="{$record->url()->setQueryString( 'do', 'getLastComment' )}" title='{lang="view_this_cmsrecord" sprintf="\IPS\Member::loggedIn()->language()->addToStack( 'content_db_lang_sl_' . $record::$customDatabaseId, FALSE ), $record->_title"}' class='ipsDataItem_title ipsType_break'>{wordbreak="$record->_title"}</a><br>
							<span class='ipsType_light ipsType_small'>{lang="byline_nodate" htmlsprintf="$record->author()->link()"} &middot; {datetime="$record->mapped('date')"}</span>
						</div>
					</li>
				{{endforeach}}
			</ul>
		</div>
	{{else}}
		<div class='ipsWidget_inner'>
			<ul class='ipsDataList'>
				{template="recordRow" group="listing" location="database" app="cms" themeClass="IPS\cms\Theme" params="null, null, $records"}
			</ul>
		</div>
	{{endif}}
{{endif}}
