Dear all,
One of my friends has been uploading videos on cooking on YouTube. Recently I think that he has uploaded his 50th video on YouTube, but I not sure about whether it was his 50th video. Suppose I wish to ask him about the "ordinal status of his last video", kindly tell me how can I ask such a question. Please see the following expressions.
1) What is the numerical position of your latest video?
2) What is the ordinal status of your latest video?
3) Howmanyeth video of your's is this?
4) What number of your video is this?
Thank you.

I like number three, modified (The howmanyth video of yours is this?), but it isn't standard English. At all. The others do not work. I would never even try to solve such a puzzle and would simplify with something like "Is this your 50th video, or what?"
Natural English is to ask this way.
eg How many cooking videos have you uploaded now?
