Hey Jaxel, thanks for updating the mod to Vb4. Im sure once I upgrade to Vb4 Ill be using this mod as well. I am currently using Vb3 and I am having trouble posting comments to videos. It seems to be a problem with the vbseo rewrite rules. When I delete some of them, the comments temporarily work then disappear. Here are my rewrite rules. Do you know how to fix this. I appreciate it.

//Video-Directory
'^video\.php\?do=viewrecent'=>'videos/recent-videos.html'
'^video\.php\?do=viewtag&tag=(.*)'=>'tags/$1/'

'^video\.php\?do=viewcategory&categoryid=(\d+)&categorytitle=(.*)&sort=dateline&order=DESC&page=(\d+)'=>'videos/$2-$1/page-$3/'
'^video\.php\?do=viewdetails&categoryid=(\d+)&categorytitle=(.*)&videoid=(\d+)&videotitle=(.*)'=>'videos/$2-$1/$4-$3.html'
'^video\.php\?do=viewcategory&categoryid=(\d+)&categorytitle=(.*)&page=(\d+)'=>'technique/$2-$1/$3/'
'^video\.php\?do=viewcategory&categoryid=(\d+)&categorytitle=(.*)'=>'videos/$2-$1/'

I wont be providing anymore support for the VB3 version...

If you guys want to see what the submission form is going to look like, just scroll to the bottom and click submit:
http://test.8wayrun.com/media.php

Right now it supports YouTube, Vimeo, MetaCafe and DailyMotion...

Was this a reply for me?
Hosters are being DATABASE driven, instead of XML file driven now. Below is the database construct and the YouTube example. Since its being database driven, if you wanted to merge it with AME, I don't see how it would be a problem. Just extract the service name, the regex code and link it directly to the embed code. Of course, you wouldn't have the url to feed, or the feed to variables...

serviceID = primary key = 1
svcName = service name = YouTube
svcRegex = regex matching = http:\/\/[a-z]*?[\.]?youtube\.[a-z]*?\/watch\?v=([A-Z0-9._%-]*)
svcFeed = url to feed = http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos/{serviceVAL}
svcThumb = feed to thumb = $arr['media:group']['media:thumbnail'][0]['url']
svcTitle = feed to title = $arr['media:group']['media:description']['value']
svcDesc = feed to desc = $arr['media:group']['media:title']['value']
svcLength = feed to length = $arr['media:group']['media:keywords']
svcTags = feed to tags = $arr['media:group']['yt:duration']['seconds']
svcURL = souurce url = http://www.youtube.com/watch?v={serviceVAL}
svcEmbed = embed code = <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/{serviceVAL}&autoplay=1&fs=1&rel=0&hd=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385" />

regarding this:
This would be awesome to get as many hosters for Video Directory Remixed than for AME! I'm sure I'm not alone waiting to get this possibility. This is the only thing missing in this great hack, more video hosters. The're not easy to understand or create.

The problem is I don't know anything about coding or whatever you said about hosters. What I know, is that many users here made the same request than me in the past. I also have made personal inquiries to many coders here and nobody wants to touch it so i guess it's not that esay.

I wont be providing anymore support for the VB3 version...

This is so sad to hear. :(

This will lead me to use another solution since I don't plan to upgrade to 4.X, but thanks anyway for your great hack. I"m just disappointed that I did not have all definitions (and since I don't have any knowledge, there is nothing I can do) as for other available hacks. The reason which made me keeping this one was the fact of having a separate directory... so if it can gives ideas to other people...

Lookin' good Jaxel! Very smooth :up:

thanks those somewhat worked. I had to adjust them a little. I can post comments now but cannot delete them. When I try to delete them it redirects me to: http://mysite.com/#comments which shows my homepage. Is it suppose to redirect to /#comments?

I think you guys are gonna like a lot of the changes I've made so far...

There is no longer an "Add Video" button. Instead, the navbar has a drop down list for submitting media, so you can go directly to the submission form. These links hold a category ID in the URL, so when you click on the link, it will automatically select the appropriate category. In addition, there is now a small submission form at the bottom of almost every page, the main page, category pages, tag pages and user pages; it does not display on watch or edit pages. If you're on a category page, it will automatically select the appropriate category again. I know on my forums, getting people to put videos into the correct category was the hardest part. Having it this way will also prevent people from adding media, without first retrieving the information from the server. Which of course, was another problem on my forums... For a lot of users I ended up having to manually edit their videos to put in minutes and seconds because they never clicked the retrieve info button.

Right now media submission forms and tag edit forms (no ajax yet) are working.

Jaxel

04-02-2010, 01:00 PM

By popular demand, I am making it so the subset for "most popular media", is calculated based on the number of COMMENTS, not the number of VIEWS.

Great work Jaxel, when do u think u can publish a Beta Version for vB4?

Jaxel

04-04-2010, 06:25 AM

I don't really do betas... VDM had problems because I was building on someone else's code, which was foreign to my methodology. I tend to work backwards from other programmers. So I usually don't have situations where things are a "work in progress". Either a feature works, or its completely missing. I've been working nonstop for a few days on this mod, so I'll be taking a break tomorrow... Status of things right now are very good.

Right now most of the AJAX functions for the mod are done; the comment system, rating system and submission system all rely on AJAX. The AJAX functions can also fall back onto standard form posting if a user doesn't have javascript, or the administrator disables AJAX functions. The comment system is working great, so we shouldn't have the problems we had with VDR. The editing of the title, tags and description of a video are NOT AJAX driven.

Right now there are ZERO permission settings on my beta site; I wanted to make sure the main functions worked first before I started working on the permissions. So if you want to try things out on the test site, feel free... but you'll be submitting as a guest. But you can do any administrative function currently programmed in, such as editing details and comments.

Remaining on the Agenda...

SIDEBAR
Search
Reporting
Submission Moderation
Comment Moderation
Comment AJAX Editing
Usergroup Permissions
Style Variables
Product Packaging

Is there a need for me to do category permissions like in VDR?

And I'm unemployed again... so donations would be greatly appreciated!

Yep, your right, its okay to change the name to something else but there is a thing you should not forgot that we have lots of old video URLs submitted and saved in search engines and users bookmarks, if your going to change the URLs like video.php to media.php do you have any solution in mind? and btw I have currently installed old Video-Directory Remixed in my vb4 installation, just disabled.

You can use HTACCESS to convert old video URLs into the new media URL.

* How can I store thumbnails in the database instead of as files (I have a 250,000 file limit/aka Inodes limit with hostgator)
* Where can I put my adsense ads on this mod?

I think somewhere in this thread the current coder: Jaxel said that they are not handling any support for 3.x.x

The adsense part of the mod is in this thread somewhere. Do a search for 'adsense' and you should be able to find your answer.

04-08-2010, 12:11 PM

Jaxel, would it be possible to include an Option to Upload and Edit the Image related to the Video? :confused:

This Would Allow to use Videos from Services such as redtube, where one can Create the Code to Embed the Video, but as the Image can't be Extracted from the Video Hosting System then the User would be able to Upload the URL for the Image of the Video or from the Computer. ;)

I Hope you can Include this Option; I remember in the past that I managed to Create the redtube's Video Embedding File but the Image was always missing as the Mod currently don't offer the Option to Manually Upload the Image from URL or from Computer. ;)

My Best Regards.

Ok I have gone through and read more then 50 pages so I am sure that the answer was not in there...

Are you going to provide any support for Video Uploading of MP4s?

I am not sure as to what to do right now as I really like the engine of Media Lite with it's upload features but LOVE the design and layout of your product...

I know you are not supporting 3 but that is what I have to make a decision on now as we can not update for awhile as some of the mods we HAVE to have are not working on 4 as of yet...

Thanks for any input or advice anyone can give me as I have to find a solution that will allow me to:

1. Upload MP4 files - we do a lot of training videos using JING and need to post them diretly.
2. Would love to be able to use the best Player in the Market JW Player and its mods...

Thanks for your help and time, again ANYONE feel free to answer this...

it's seems like if you report a video and a thread is created that thread is pretty much permanent as the report thread for that video and doesn't get updated when the video is reported again.

problem scenario: some video gets reported for some reason and is dealt with. then later the same video gets reported again. a new thread isn't created and the original one doesn't get updated.

even deleting the thread doesn't help, you only get a "No Thread specified" message.

Jaxel

04-08-2010, 11:10 PM

The report thread function was build by Surviver, the previous author. With the new version I am working on, with is 100% my own, reporting will be handled through EMAILS (the same way as when someone reports a thread), instead of creating a brand new thread.

Okay, I need help with 2 things right now... First I need to figure out how to do HTACCESS... lets say I have the url http://test.8wayrun.com/media.php?do=details&mid=87, I would like to be able to access the same URL from http://test.8wayrun.com/media/m87, how would I do this? I have tried the following, but it doesnt work...
ReWriteRule ^media/m([0-9]+).* media.php?do=details&mid=$1[QSA]

Next question... I am trying to parse some info from ustream... below is the feed
<xml>
<results>
<title><![CDATA[NECX LF Dreamkiller VS Rigel]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[NECX]]></description>
<lengthInSecond>500.884</lengthInSecond>
<imageUrl>
<medium><![CDATA[http://static-cdn1.ustream.tv/videopic/0/1/2/2724/2724048/1_1121923_2724048_320x240_b_1:1.jpg]]></medium>
</imageUrl>
<tags>
<array key="0"><![CDATA[8wayrun]]></array>
<array key="1"><![CDATA[NECX]]></array>
<array key="2"><![CDATA[Soulcalibur]]></array>
</tags>
</results>
</xml>

Getting the majority of the information has been easy...
Title = $arr['results']['title'];
Description = $arr['results']['description'];
Thumb = $arr['results']['imageUrl']['medium'];
Length = $arr['results']['lengthInSecond'];

However, I can't figure out how to get the information for the tags. I basically need to extract the tags into an array, and then implode it into a string with a comma delimiting each entry. Does anyone know how I would do this?

AllinJac

04-09-2010, 08:23 AM

This mod does not support directly uploading media. However, if you have MP4 media, you can EASILY setup some sort of free flash player (I recommend JW Player at http://www.longtailvideo.com/). Then simply add that as a service host.

Brilliant!

Yeah that is all I need to upload is mpeg4...

And yes, I agree the best player in the market from my research is JW Player!

Have you or ANYONE here ever done a new Service Host with specifically the JW Player and how it would look?

I am not a programmer by any means but I understand the basics... My programmer will be here today but be gone for the next 5 days and I would love to make this work before he gets back so I can start uploading videos without having to go through Youtube directly!!!

__________________________________________________ ____________________________
EDIT: I just found this to set up a JW Player on your vBulletin...

Does this look and sound right and what you were referring to by setting up JW Player... Now I just need to figure out how to do a Host???

The ability to upload new thumbnails is already in the system.

I'm not sure if I'm going to put in an option where you can change the serviceVAL of a video. The whole idea of changing serviceVALs is problematic, and it should only be done by administrators in the first place. If you are an admin, you can easily edit the serviceVAL yourself in PHPMyAdmin.

SEO Slugs are also done and working PERFECTLY. Check them out on the test site.

5 different places if you count the SEO slugs.

1 & 2 are automatic; the final navbit automatically becomes the pagetitle. 4 is kind of essential because its a centerpiece to the page. 3 is a throw away, but really I have nothing else to put there.

As of VB 4.0.3, I now have errors with page pagination on custom mods...

Example: http://test.8wayrun.com/media/c9-kogarasumaru

With VB 4.0.2, it looked fine, but now the last 3 elements are shifted.

Here is my redesign of the current system:

http://www.thewrestlingtalk.com/videos/

It's rather basic changes.. We moved the related/popular video portion of the sidebar to the right sidebar. This allows for more categories.

Things I'd like to see added in the future:

Auto Importing of Playlists into a category
Would love to see the progression of the "Import" feature be added to BULK loading. Would save a lot of time.

Category Tags
Top XX tags in the category being browsed

Video Linking
Sometimes a video can go into two of your categories.. allow a "linked" copy to be duplicated.

Cross Selling
Allow videos related to the video be selected to "ALWAYS" appear in related videos

Advanced Categories
Allow categories to only be displayed when they are in the parent category. Do not show every category under a tree.

Why? This allows for more organization within the menu and allows for a more user friendly experience once you have a lot of videos.

Example?

Auto Tagging
Based on current tags. If the title contains tags they are added on import.

Why? The way Youtube does it, each word is its own tag.

Example? Say its a video on Blue Colored Contacts... having three tags, "Blue", "Colored", and "Contacts" is useless, but if you had tags already set as, "Blue Contacts", "Colored Contacts", and "Blue Colored Contacts", you'd have three very useful keyword phrases.

YouTube Search
Using the Youtube API, call in a search to place results AFTER the current on site results.

Why? Provides a quality set of secondary results.

Example Possibly using the other vBTube search script, updated for the new API.

Automated News Feed
Set up a daily CRON to pull in categories with more than X videos added to them.

Why? Keeps the news/announcement portion fresh without effort.

Add to Calendar
Allow the user to set an event ID the video is for and show it on the calendar.

Media RSS
Add media RSS output of the embedded player on the video page.

Why?
Allows for easy porting to Wordpress blogs and other RSS syndication.

Example?
Keep the videos "in house" using JWPlayer to pull the videos in and allow RSS embedding in the same player.

I like were this hack is going:D

Question: Would you are would you be able to refer anyone who could build us a custom media center based on your hack. Paid of course

1: we need members to be able to upload video?s as you have your hack.

2: would like a deferent format, were the video chosen shows on top of the list of video?s like http://www.cnn.com/video/

3: we have several companies who broadcast intraday news clips pertaining to our sites nich, they have given us the permission to use their clips but all their video players are deferent styles \], what I would like is a solutions to aggregate these video?s into our main media center were the latest video from anyone of these sources will automatically show at our center in our player.

Jaxel

04-16-2010, 08:31 PM

Okay, attached is the mostly unphrased beta... don't install this beta on your LIVE forum yet. Keep it to test forums; and make sure you import your existing Video Directory Remixed database to your test forum. I've also included my HTACCESS file; which I think everyone with apache should be using over what you find at vbulletin.com.

INSTALL
- Upload all files in "upload" to your forum root
- CHMOD 777 customVID and its subdirectories
- Install product from your admin control panel
- Set your usergroup permissions
- Program your Media Library settings, especially your thumbnail quality setting... At 50%, your thumbnails will be about 2kb in size, at 80% about 5kb in size and at 100%, 15kb in size. By default, the setting is for 50% quality, but I recommend changing it to 80%.

UPGRADE (after you install)
- go into plugin manager and enable the "media ADMIN import" plugin, once you finish the upgrade process, you will want to disable this plugin again so you don't accidentally use it. this upgrade process will truncate your existing media tables, so you should only ever do this process once.
- go into update counters maintenance and run the "Import Media from Video Directory Remixed" process. VDR needs to still be installed on your forums (but disabled, since it wont run on VB4x) and the video tables should still be in your database.
- when this import is done, it will automatically run the "Rebuild Media Information" process.
- go into update counters maintenance and run the "Rebuild Media Thumbnails" process. This is a very intensive process, but it will rebuild all thumbnails for your media to the new thumbnail format I have created for this mod.

YOU WILL GET ERRORS WHILE REBUILDING THUMBNAILS!

Rebuilding thumbnails will tell you for which media it is working on, and then display the new thumbnail. If the rebuild process stops with an error; you can easily click on the link provided for that media and see if there is anything wrong with the media. Often you will see something along the lines of "This video has been removed" from YouTube or something else.

This means the video is gone, and thus the thumbnail was unable to be regenerated. Delete the video from your library, as its no longer of any use to you, and restart the thumbnail rebuild process from where you left off. You can easily skip to where you left off, by inputting the ID of the last completed video into the section labelled "Media ID Staring Location".

If you don't see any error when you click the link provided, that simply means that there was a syn/ack request failure (consider it a hiccup) and it was unable to connect. Just try again from that specific ID.

extreme-gaming, I don't think so since he stated that he would not touch the hack for the 3.8.X version.

That's why I previously said and asked without any answers why this thread was used for the development of a product that would not even be for 3.8.X anymore. I was sure people would start to get confused and it's actually starting as expected. Jaxel, why don't you start a thread for 4.0 version even beta and keeps this thread cleaned of anything regarding 3.8.X version. This would avoid confusion and would not give hope for nothing for us, abandonned users of the 3.8.X version.

My two cents.

Okay, here is a fixed product file... uninstall the previous version first.

You will need to edit the product and DELETE the SECOND "Existing Install/Uninstall Code" before you will be able to uninstall it. There was a problem with the install procedure related to uStream.

The ability to upload new thumbnails is already in the system.

I'm not sure if I'm going to put in an option where you can change the serviceVAL of a video. The whole idea of changing serviceVALs is problematic, and it should only be done by administrators in the first place. If you are an admin, you can easily edit the serviceVAL yourself in PHPMyAdmin.

SEO Slugs are also done and working PERFECTLY. Check them out on the test site.

04-24-2010, 08:24 AM

haytham,

Did you click the option at the bottom of the add video screen to start a new thread? If not, it will not setup a new thread.

The RSS feature would be used to 'feed' the information to either a widget or feature (like this one: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=196332 ) or a news feature ticker (like this one: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=207432 ) to communicate it out to your members/guests.

Hope that helps :up:

Yeah. You are right. I didn't notice that but after a while I found it useless to be posting in a forum. It only gives me 2 instances of the video. I have a youtube mod installed too so as soon as there is a post in a thread it appears as a video again.

Thanks again.

Now I had a hard time moving videos from one category to another. I have to open each video separately then click edit then choose the category...very time consuming. Hope there is an updated way of doing this soon. Other than that, this mod rocks and kicks _ _ _. Thanks a lot.

Inciarco, if you are looking to change an existing thumbnail for a YouTube video, for example. Simply open the directory .... videothumbnails >> YouTube and there you will see the thumbnails for the videos that you have uploaded.

As an example, I have a video uploaded at one of my sites here: http://www.themysterydistrict.com/videos/worlds-mysteries-videos-5/strange-japanese-sea-creatures-10.html

The video's URL is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pa0SY6RYJIo

That video's thumbnail is here: http://www.themysterydistrict.com/videothumbnails/YouTubeHD/Pa0SY6RYJIo.jpg

So, as you can see, the video's ID is used as the 'name' of the .jpg file. So, to change the image, I would simply create a new thumbnail (use a size that won't 'break' your style/layout) and rename it as "Pa0SY6RYJIo.jpg" and upload it to your videothumbnails >> YouTube (or YouTubeHD if applicable) directory. Does that help?

Hi. I recently installed your mod into my forum, however this message appears everytime I try to go into the video directory:

you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

Could anyone please explain to me, how to enable all of my members to have access to the directory? Thanks

sorta disappointed developer just ignored this and multiple other people who had the same issue.

It is a plugin conflict, and rather than say what, you are experiencing is a plugin conflict, try to disable your other plugins to fix the error, the problem just sits ignored.

It has nothing to do with rebuilding your limits after an upgrade as we installed 1.3 fresh.

If you are getting this error just try shutting off plugins one by one.

We had a problem with VBobtimise and this plugin. We set the vid directory general settings to NOT cache styles.

I'm having the same problem with member profiles too.

these issues are from 2009 and the developer responded to numerous posts directly after people posted this same issue and just ignored these people, so thats why IMO it was really "disappointing" that he helped and supported the mod to some people and not to others.

Seems odd that you would respond about that now. Looking back at the numerous posts you mention, seems it was addressed. Just never fixed before he could no longer support this mod.

i'm responding now because it just happened to me and it was not addressed by anyone. I read through about 40-50 pages of posts about it looking for a solution. Just people saying, yea same thing happened to me since i upgraded.

the developer said to one guy, looks like these guys didn't rebuild their limits after upgrading. which has nothing to do with the error and was of no help. As i said we installed fresh and had this issue.

First of all = Thanks for the modification share Jaxel! Much appreciation.

I would like to change the default youtube embed player from the 480x385px older size to the newer youtube 640x360px player. I'd like the larger player for all pages which parse the embed code, including the one in forum thread posts. How can I do this please?

Again - thanks for the share. I'd appreciate some assistance with this my fellow vBNerds :P

Export your youtube hoster as an xml file, once downloaded edit it and find the line below, see my values, perfect for youtube wide screen (width="540" height="360") - if you make it 640x you get black bars either side left and right.

return '<embed src="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/' . $videoid . '&autoplay=' . $autoplay . '&fs=' . $fullscreen . '&rel=' . $related . '&hq=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="540" height="360" wmode="transparent"></embed>';

Hello Folks,
Just want to start off by saying this Mod Rocks, and we've been using it for sometime now. I do however have a question, Can anyone explain to me how I can make a Hoster definition XML for a site that doesn't exist as one of the hosters listed/Included? I've tried modifing some of the existing ones and uploading them, but I'm missing something somewhere. I'm sure it has something to do with the URL info and the way I'm entering it into the xml. This site does it quite different then most of the others, so I'm very perplexed with the code I see in these. I think if I knew how to make a Wildcard for part of the URL I could get it. But I dont know how to do that, * and *.* dont seem to work.

We have recently been reviewing quite a number of videos from a site called www.PopModal.com I have no idea where to start and was hoping someone could point me in the right direction. Below is the Embed and URL information, I don't know if that will be of any help to help figure this out but figured I'd include it.

<object width="400" height="327"><param name="movie" value="http://www.popmodal.com/nvp/player/nvplayer.swf?config=http://www.popmodal.com/nvp/econfig.php?key=6833d2d0cb944555739c"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.popmodal.com/nvp/player/nvplayer.swf?config=http://www.popmodal.com/nvp/econfig.php?key=6833d2d0cb944555739c" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"wmode="transparent" width="400" height="327"></embed></object>

Any chances this mod will add in a feature for using "own video player"? Basically allowing the site admin to play all youtube video through the sites external player?

It would stop members or visitors from clicking the video to see where the video is on youtube.

Has anybody figured out the re-write for vbSEO yet? I really want to have url's seo'd and be able to comment.

Also, where is the RSS feed found? I have it enabled but don't know where the feed is.

Here is what I have for VBSEO and it's working about 90%

'^video\.php\?do=viewdetails&categoryid=(\d+)&categorytitle=(.*)&videoid=(\d+)&videotitle=(.*)'=>'videos/$2-$1/$4-$3.html'
'^video\.php\?do=viewcategory&categoryid=(\d+)&categorytitle=(.*)&page=(\d+)'=>'videos/$2-$1/$3/'
'^video\.php\?do=viewcategory&categoryid=(\d+)&categorytitle=(.*)'=>'videos/$2-$1/'
'^video\.php'=>'videos/'

This will allow the vids to be created and then a new forum opened for each video, you can comment in the new thread but you can't comment in the "Videos" section where you uploaded the video initially....

When you try to post to the "Videos" section you get the error "Invalid Video Specified"

I worked with support from VBSEO to get where I am now but they closed the ticket and told me this was a coding problem here... Frustrating to say the least....

Good job mate. I wonder why this is? Very strange to say the least. I definitely need for the members to comment on the actual video. While I do have it directed to list the comments on the forum as well. Many visitors won't get involved in the forum. They'd rather comment the video.

Otherwise, this is a fantastic mod. Everything I wanted, needed in one "FREE" package.

Hi @ jacquiicooke

that won't work, at least for me, because the video director settings is specifically looking for the rewrite rules configured with the package. Once I add the rewrite rules in your post, then go back and refresh the vid directory options in ACP, it's still saying to add the package re-write rules. And I get a mysql cannot connect to database message.

Ooops - sorry. I believe the settings looks for "//Video-Directory" code - so add that at the top of the rewrite rules and the message should no longer appear:

//Video-Directory
'^video\.php\?do=viewrecent'=>'videos/recent-videos.html'
'^video\.php\?do=viewtag&tag=(.*)'=>'videos/tags/$1/'

'^video\.php\?do=viewcategory&categoryid=(\d+)&categorytitle=(.*)&sort=dateline& order=DESC&page=(\d+)'=>'videos/$2-$1/page-$3/'
'^video\.php\?do=viewdetails&categoryid=(\d+)&categorytitle=(.*)&videoid=(\d+)&v ideotitle=(.*)'=>'videos/$2-$1/$4-$3.html'
'^video\.php\?do=viewcategory&categoryid=(\d+)&categorytitle=(.*)&page=(\d+)'=>' technique/$2-$1/$3/'

09-20-2010, 09:09 PM

Hmm...interesting. Now neither of the rewrite rules work. The message went away in the ACP, but with re-write rules added, the page doesn't resolve. I take the rewrite rules out and the page resolves again.

I apologize for my most noob question here, but will this conflict with AME? I have that and so naturally I'm concerned with this.

Also, how do I learn to create my xml files for the video hosters? It seems that I only came upon one provided file for veoh. The trend seemed to be that ppl that don't know how to create the xml file are SOL...or I just don't understand where to obtain them.

Thanks in advance and props to Bird of Prey for forwarding me to this quite complicated plugin!!
Nope, they really don't have anything to do with each other. I didn't use the video BBCode provided, but it probably works, too.

I never quite grasped how to make these XMLs, either. Since Jaxel moved on to vB4, I don't think we'll be getting a strealined way to do it.

DJ, glad for your reply about the AME part. You just can't beat information from the source. :)

I see that this mod is no longer supported for some time. I don't understand why a key piece of input is not provided or at least enough bread crumbs on how to generate them (aka like your how to on creating regex stuff for the AME definitions).

This is disappointing for newer users of this mod. :( Are any users of this mod willing to provide their XML hoster files? To share those for continued usage of this mod or do you have to be part of a private community? :(

Appreciate any pointers in the right direction and I apologize if I'm coming off as critical. I don't mean to be, just at odds to understand how this mod (> 700 installs) is basically unusable without the XML files for people that have no idea how to generate them. Slap me around where I'm wrong, b/c this is a complicated one for my set of skills, but willing to learn.

Jaxel was planning on it, but in the interim he decided to focus all his efforts on vB4. Then I think he decided to stop coding for vB altogether. One of the things I wanted to do was create an add-on for AME that simulated a video directory, but I'm quite a long way away from making that happen at this time.

I didn't say you would. I suggested you look at his vB4 version to see if it did or not. I imagine that he wouldn't make a new version where you couldn't do that, but you would need to check that thread to be sure. Uninstalling a product doesn't always remove database information.

robbiefritz, I had the same issue. It's a bit of an annoyance, but before adding your new BBCode, simply deactivate this mod. Then, after you setup the new BBCode, simply reactivate the video-directory mod and you'll be good.

Yep - same thing I do.
It would be nice to see a fix for this issue - but other than that - it's a wonderful wonderful modification.

I never got it to automatically do the thumbnails when I had a similar CHMOD issue. I had to go in and get the thumbnails and update them one by one. Please share if you find a way to do it automatically.

I have been using this for a long time and love it. I just wish I could post the videos on the home page.

Is there a way to put a module of, let's say, top videos, on non-vb page?

Thanks

Indeed there is the Video Directory Module for vBa CMPS (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=199084). I wonderful little modification I use on my boards. You need vBadvanced installed to use this though.

Of course I've customized it a wee bit to better fit the look of my forum, as well as added quick-navigation links to vid categories. Here's what it looks like on my poetry forum:

Thanks, but needs to be on a vbadvanced page. I am trying to put it on a non-vb page. S static HTML page. Maybe a script that would pull the videos.

Jaxel, I know you are not supporting this mod anymore, but can you shed some light on this on how to go about fixing it?

Hi Jaxel.

I just installed your great mod but I have a very big problem, when I want to enter to the videos page, appears this error:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare construct_category_url() in /home/allreef/public_html/inicio/includes/functions_vbglossar.php on line 945

Here you can see it:

www.all-reefs.com/inicio/video.php

But I see that the error appears to the users that I am giving permissions in the user group permissions panel in the ACP

And here is my file attached, please help me my friend.:(

I will be waiting your prompt answer!!

Mario

yes i confirmed. I have the same problem:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare construct_category_url() (previously declared in /var/www/web3074/web/includes/functions_videodirectory.php:190) in /var/www/web3074/web/includes/functions_vbglossar.php on line 963

Oh oh !!

te problem is coming from the "lexikon" - vbglossary modul. make the crosslinking enabled to NO.

now the video modul is activ

Using cross-linking in vBglossary is causing an issue when adding a new video (and starting a new thread). Anyone found a fix for this yet?

MagicThemeParks

03-15-2011, 02:01 AM

Great! Found the answer! :)

You have to edit the php files for both includes/functions_videodirectory.php and then the video.php file to ensure that they reference the 'new' name correctly. :up:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare construct_category_url() (previously declared in /includes/functions_videodirectory.php:190) in /includes/functions_vbglossar.php on line 963

It conflicts with vbglossar. What's the fix?

I just did quick fix by changing all construct_category_url ocurrences to different name
