Don't forget to click INSTALL!
I'm an unemployed computer programmer... if you appreciate the work I have done on this mod, please don't hesitate in offering me a donation by clicking the "Support Developer" link to the right of this text. A donation of $50 or more automatically gives you the right to remove the copyright footer for this modification from a single forum.

This is a new modification, spawning from the old VB 3.x Video Directory modifications.
For all intents and purposes, both my old Video Directory Remixed mod, and Survivor's original Video Directory mod have been discontinued. Neither of us are maintaining these older versions, they will not receive any future updates and we will not be providing any support. This version has a new name because it has been completely rewritten from scratch and is not being built on Survivor's old code. Because of this, if you are upgrading to this new version, from the old version, be sure to read this entire post in order to understand the upgrade process.

What is this mod?
Simply put, this mod is a directory for media. It supports URL inputs, in order to extract meta data and directorize media into a simple and easy to understand library. Users can add their favorite media from a select few online distribution centers (such as Youtube or Vimeo) and categorize and tag them as they see fit. This mod offers rudimentary support for the hosting of local media. An administrator can upload a media to the /customVID/ (default) directory; then add the media to the library using the URL code of "local:filename". Media hosted locally will be displayed using JWPlayer, but will not provide meta data, so that kind of information will need to be entered manually.

Demo:http://www.8wayrun.com/media.php

Features:
Integrated directly into the vBulletin user database and product manager.
Fully phrased and built on tempaltes for easy re-skinning and styling.
Simple to use administration features and usergroup permission settings.
Landing page with the most recent, most popular and highest rated media.
Ability to add media into a single category, while adding multiple tags.
Ability to browse media through categories, tags, and user contributions.
Summary tag cloud with a link to the entire list of tags in the system.
Comment and rating system based on AJAX including graceful degredation.
Individual RSS Feeds for newest videos, categories, tags and user media.
Search function for titles and descriptions.Installation:If you are upgrading from before version 1.1, please install that version first.

Upload all the files in the "upload" directory of the attached zip file to your forum root.
CHMOD the /customVID/thumbs/ directory to full read/write/execute 777 permissions.
CHMOD the /customVID/sitemap/ directory to full read/write/execute 777 permissions.
Import the product file called "product-medialibrary.xml" in the Product Manager of vBulletin.
Set your usergroup permissions and media library settings in your administration control panel.
OPTIONAL: Enable the "Generate XML Media Sitemap" scheduled task in your administration control panel.

NOTES: Make sure you decide what you wish to use for your thumbnail quality setting. By default, thumbnails are saved at 50% quality. At 50%, thumbnails will only be 2kb in size, but at the expense of quality. At 100%, thumbnails will be about 15kb in size, but will have the highest quality. I recommend setting it to 80%, which would leave thumbnails at 5kb in size with still excellent quality.

Every time you change your thumbnail quality setting, you will need to run the "Rebuild Media Thumbnails" to see any changes.Upgrading from VDR (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=200819):
The "video*" tables from your previous installation of VDR need to exist in your database.
Enable the "media ADMIN import" plugin in the plugin manager of your control panel.
Run the "Import Media from VDR" process in your update counters menu in maintenance.
Disable the "media ADMIN import" plugin in the plugin manager of your control panel.
Run the "Rebuild Media Thumbnails" process in your update counters menu in maintenance.
You may now uninstall VDR once you confirm everything has been imported as intended.

NOTES: You will mostly likely get at least one error while rebuilding media thumbnails...

When you get an error, click the details link for that media. If the media displays some sort of error such as "This video has been removed" or "This video no longer exist", then that means that media is gone and you'll be unable to generate a thumbnail for that particular media. Use the available options on that media's detail page to DELETE it from your library. Then go back to your browser window which is rebuilding thumbnails and click the "retry from this position" link.

If you got an error for a media, but after clicking the details link you can find no obvious error with the video; then the error could have just been a simple syn/ack failure. Just click the "retry from this position" link and the system will try to rebuild that thumbnail again.Known Bugs:There is a conflict with this modification and some of Valter's VSA modifications that will prevent navbar permissions from being handled correctly. I don't know exactly who's fault it is; but I'm pretty sure there are no errors in my code that would be causing this problem. There is a work around for this however.

Admin Control Panel > Plugins & Products > Plugin Manager > "media NAVTAB"

Find the code:
$perms = media_permissions();Replace with:
$perms['rate'] = true;
$perms['comment'] = true;
$perms['submit'] = true;
$perms['playlist'] = true;

if (is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo, explode(',','5,6')))
{
$perms['modtags'] = true;
$perms['modcategory'] = true;
$perms['modservice'] = true;
}

================================================== =========
Version 4.1.5 MAINTENANCE RELEASE
================================================== =========

CHANGES: Service Hosters can now retrieve XML information based on ERRORS.
What this means, instead of YouTube returning a "Media contains invalid data" prompt,
the script will instead post the direct error prompt supplied by YouTube Error Code.
The issues people were having with foreign language forums and YouTube will be explained.

You MUST run the "Click here to restore all services in the "/media/xml" directory to their default settings" process.

BUG FIX: Fixed service codes for MetaCafe and Dailymotion who changed their functions
BUG FIX: Fixed a table prefix issue with both playlists and the search functions.
BUG FIX: Disabled the ImageMagick routines once again until I can get it working.
NOTICE: All install procedures pre-4.1.2 have been rolled up into the initial release.

================================================== =========
Version 4.1.5 PLAYLISTS AND CUSTOM VARIABLES
================================================== =========

CHANGES: Object types are now explicitly defined in service XML files.

You MUST run the "Click here to restore all services in the "/media/xml" directory to their default settings" process.
The reason for this change is so that you can now host local WMV files using the included JW Silverlight Player.
The LocalAudio/LocalVideo services have been depricated and replaced with Local-MP3, Local-MP4, Local-WMA, and Local-WMV.

NEW FEATURE: Administrators can now define up to 9 custom variables.

The custom variable system must be enabled in the control panel before you can use any custom variables.
Custom variables can be enabled or disabled by either adding or deleting their custom variable names.

NEW FEATURE: Advanced Search can be found by clicking on the "Search" link on the sidebar.

The search function will now properly seperate search terms by spaces.
Advanced search will automatically include all enabled custom variables.

NEW FEATURE: Users with permissions to do so, can now create public playlists.

A new usergroup bitfield has been added for this permission, so you may need to rebuild bitfields.
Playlists are not currently paginated, but at the same time, there is no limit to playlist sizes.

BUG FIX: Fixed a bug where certain cells did not properly fill out the entire page.
BUG FIX: Fixed a bug where comments could not be posted if pm inboxes were full.

================================================== =========
Version 4.1.1 STREAMING AND TEMPLATE FIXES
================================================== =========

NEW FEATURE: You can now embed streams and chats from Justin.TV and uStream.

You MUST run the "Click here to restore all services in the "/media/xml" directory to their default settings" process.

CHANGES: Moved the admin links 100px to the left for small fixed width forums.
BUG FIX: Fixed the template bug where boxes wouldn't stretch to fit the page.
BUG FIX: Fixed the browse media page for those forums that use TABLE_PREFIX.
BUG FIX: Fixed thumbnail rebuilding for media that doesn't have per video RSS.
BUG FIX: Fixed thumbnail creation for hosters that don't use JPG (GIF or PNG).

================================================== =========
Version 4.1.0 INCREMENTAL CHANGES AND BUG FIXES
================================================== =========

NEW FEATURE: You can now import media directly from an installation of vBTube.
NEW FEATURE: You can now import media with consolidated IDs from VD Remixed.
CHANGES: All tags and tag content are now processed through the Data Manager.
CHANGES: This mod is now once again 100% XHTML and RSS validated.
BUG FIX: Foreign languages will now be processed correctly in AJAX comments.
BUG FIX: Media Submissions will now properly follow autoforwarding links.
BUG FIX: Main page will now properly hide videos in inactive categories.
BUG FIX: XML will now FORCE the UTF-8 charset, so people should get less errors. This will make it so that you shouldn't have to change to UTF-8 to get this mod working. However, I still recommend switching to UTF-8 if you want to handle videos from some foreign sources.

================================================== =========
Version 4.0.9 EMERGENCY BUG FIX
================================================== =========
UPGRADERS:

You MUST run the "Click here to restore all services in the "/media/xml" directory to their default settings" process.

BUG FIX: The construct for the object/embed codes have been completely rewritten. They now use a universal template file, and store only the target SWF, instead of the entire object/embed construct. You MUST run the "Click here to restore all services in the "/media/xml" directory to their default settings" process if you want this mod to continue functioning. This change was put in to fix some errors in the MRSS sitemap.
BUG FIX: The plugin to create the [media] bbcode for this mod has been encapsulated within a switch from a vb setting. There is a new setting in your Media Library options that operates this switch which will enable or disable the parsing of the [media] code. By default this switch is disabled; if you enable it and suddenly parts of your forum stop working (such as your CMS), then that means you have another mod installed on your forum that is conflicting with this one. I have gone through my code a dozen times trying to see if there is anything in it that would cause this problem and I could not find anything.

================================================== =========
Version 4.0.8 SUBSCRIPTIONS AND SITEMAP
================================================== =========
UPGRADERS:

This version has changed the way the media bits are constructed. If you install this version and suddenly notice you are getting an error when browsing the media library, just go into your admin CP and reselect your media bit style.
The sitemap has been expanded to support ALL videos in your media library. Because of this, a new directory was created in /customVID/sitemap; please make sure this directory is CHMOD 777 in order to use the sitemap.
Also remember to update your .htaccess file, and check the new entries in the known bugs section for permission changes for those using VSA mods.

NEW FEATURE: Users can now sort media by rating, favorites, comments, views and dateline.
NEW FEATURE: Users can now subscribe to media, they will recieve a PM when a comment is posted.
NEW FEATURE: A BBCode called [media] has now been implemented for posting from the library.
NEW FEATURE: A Scheduled Task has been added to build your sitemap. (disabled by default)
BUG FIX: Ampersands will now get replaced in strings properly for services such as MySpace.

================================================== =========
Version 4.0.7 BIG BUGFIX ROLLUP
================================================== =========
UPGRADERS: If you are upgrading to 4.0.7 follow these steps:

Delete the entire directory /media and all files within it.
Upload contents /upload folder of ZIP file to your forum root.
Import product-medialibrary.xml as a product, allow overwrite.
Run http://URLtoYourForums/media.php?do=admin_host_restore

NEW FEATURE: Service Hosters now support secondary service values! This is important for video hosters such as Hulu which purposely obfuscate their embed codes.
NEW FEATURE: Submission form for media will now validate fields.
NEW FEATURE: Category Descriptions will now parse BBCode.
CHANGES: Service Hosters no longer require semicolons at the end of fields.
CHANGES: Regex now use # delimeters, so / no longer needs to be \ cancelled.
BUG FIX: Comments and Editing boxes have been fixed! This issue was related to the guide here on vb.org being wrong about how to valdiate WYSIWYG textboxes. As a temporary fix, a plugin has been installed that will completely disable WYSIWYG options inside of the Media Library.
BUG FIX: ~E_DEPRECATED has been removed, since it has been depricated... oh irony.
BUG FIX: Loading media details will no longer prompt a javascript error for favorites.
BUG FIX: Thumbnail compression will now default to GD only, until I can find a fix for ImageMagick.
BUG FIX: Tags will now strip the following characters from any entry:
# $ ? & @ % + = ^ | : ; / \ < > { } [ ]

These characters are reserved URI characters and were giving problems with tags. This fix will fix any NEW tags, however this will not affect your existing tags. I recommend everyone to head to their administrate tags panel and delete any tags which contain any of these characters.

BUG FIX: More miscellaneous code and template revisions...

================================================== =========
Version 4.0.6 FAVORITES AND WIDGETS
================================================== =========

NEW FEATURE: Users can now give hearts to media and mark them as favorites.
Any usergroup with permissions to rate, will have permission to mark favorites.
NEW FEATURE: User Profile Tab for most recent media.
This uses the new "tiny" bit; which is selectable as the main bit in admincp.
NEW FEATURE: Widget support for both the ForumHome Sidebar and the vbCMS.
This has been updated since the previous versions, so please update your codes.
BUG FIX: Fixed formatting buttons on quick reply for comments.
BUG FIX: Fixed MySQLi errors for those who happen to be using it.
BUG FIX: Fixed service constructs for non-SEO slugged links.
BUG FIX: Fixed RSS feeds for tags in table prefix settings.

================================================== =========
Version 4.0.5 SERVICE HOST XML REWRITE AND SITEMAP
================================================== =========

NEW FEATURE: You can now add new services by developing your own XML files.
I will write a guide on how to construct these XML files soon enough, but for now, you'll have to figure it out on your own.
NEW FEATURE: Google Video Sitemap now available at "media.php?do=sitemap".
This sitemap will only parse LOCAL audio and video files.
BUG FIX: Fixed some leftover thumbnail problems from the previous version.
BUG FIX: Miscellaneous SQL and template errors no one knew about but me.

================================================== =========
Version 4.0.4 XHTML VALIDATED AND THUMBNAIL REWRITE
================================================== =========

CHANGE: Thumbnails are now stored in "/customVID/thumbs/" (default) directory.
UPGRADERS: If you are upgrading to 4.0.4 from a previous edition of this mod, you can now delete all the "/customVID/0-9/" thumbnail folders, but should make sure to CHMOD the "/customVID/thumbs/" folder to 777. In addition, upgraders will be required to run the "Rebuild Thumbnail Process" to generate thumbnails in the appropriate folder.
CHANGE: Administrate Services control panel is more streamlined for editing.
CHANGE: This mod is now 100% XHTML certified using the W3C XHTML Validator.
NEW FEATURE: You can now enable/disable the autoplay feature in media.
UPGRADERS: If you are upgrading to 4.0.4 from a previous edition of this mod, you must MANUALLY make changes in your services to handle the new "autoplay" setting. The new Administrate Services page will make this update process easy. Just read THIS POST (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=2022842&postcount=3) and copy and paste the recommended embed codes into the appropriate Edit Service page.
NEW FEATURE: You can now host media locally on your server! Media must be uploaded to the "/customVID/" (default) directory. Then you can add the media to the library by using the codes "localvideo:filename.ext" or "localaudio:filename.ext" as the Media URL on the submit form. You can also add subdirectories inside of "/customVID/"; so if you uploaded "/customVID/intros/SC2intro.mkv", you can add it as a video to your library with "localvideo:intros/SC2intro.mkv". Media hosted locally will be displayed using JWPlayer, but will not provide meta data, so that kind of information will need to be entered manually.
BUG FIX: Comments and Descriptions will now parse URLs into BBcode.
BUG FIX: Auto-Create Threads will now properly update forum last post times.
BUG FIX: Deleting a media will now properly delete the assosciated thumbnail.
BUG FIX: Fixed report page for those not using Search Engine Optimization.
BUG FIX: Fixed RSS Feeds for those not using Search Engine Optimization.

================================================== =========
Version 4.0.3 AUTO CREATE AND VERIFICATION FEATURES
================================================== =========

NEW FEATURE: The Auto-Create Thread feature has once again returned!
NEW FEATURE: Tag, Comment, Description and Title verification handlers now follow built in vB4 settings. Each of these fields will follow their related forum setting such as "Tag Minimum Length" or "Tag Maximum Length". If a field should fail to meet the specifications, the error handlers will now explain why it has failed in more detail.
BUG FIX: Fixed information retrieval for feeds with non-Latin sources.
BUG FIX: Fixed phrasegroup error within AJAX functions created in 4.0.2.
BUG FIX: Miscellaneous SQL and template errors no one knew about but me.

================================================== =========
Version 4.0.2 MASSIVE TEMPLATE REWRITE
================================================== =========

NEW FEATURE: StyleVar group has been created to handle Media Library styles.
This is a complete overhaul of the template system for this mod. Every old template has been replaced with new templates which include stylevars, and a new naming structure. I used replace functions in Notepad++ in order to replace the template calls in all the files so there shouldn't be any errors; however, please inform me if there are any issues with this new version, whether it be a template not being called correctly or even unchached templates.
BUG FIX: Fixed htaccess QSA errors were page numbers were not being processed.
BUG FIX: Fixed avatar constructs for comments due to a bug within vB4 itself.

================================================== =========
Version 4.0.1 SECURITY UPDATE AND BUG FIX ROLLUP
================================================== =========

CHANGE: Added lines to htaccess to convert VDR URLS to Media Library URLS.
NOT A BUG: Navbar permissions not processing.

Make sure you are running the most recent version of vBulletin 4x.
There are TWO permission groups for this mod. Make sure you set BOTH.
Permissions work fine on my test forum with no other mods installed.
None the less, I created a function to process all permission values.

BUG FIX: Fixed a XSS EXPLOIT with the tagging system and single quotes.
BUG FIX: Fixed Implicit GROUP BY error with certain versions of MySQL.
BUG FIX: Fixed various TABLE_PREFIX bugs in places without datamanager.
BUG FIX: Fixed CSS construction for people using "stylesheets as files".
BUG FIX: Fixed datamanager call for description length when rating media.
BUG FIX: Fixed media phrasegroups when making calls to ajax functions.

Okay, its odd that you are getting this error on user pages, but NOT tag or category pages; since NONE of those pages have the implicit GROUP BY clause either. In my version of MySQL, GROUP BY is not required. Do you get this error on any other pages? Most importantly, do you also get it on a SEARCH page?

Anyway, I uploaded a new version just for you... try it now.

Thanks very nice mod installed. But How can I add google video?
Right now it only supports: YouTube, Vimeo, MetaCafe, DailyMotion, Veoh, MegaVideo and uStream. I will make a video guide on how to make your own services within the coming weeks.

How can i change the Media Tab in the Navbar to Say something Different??
The system is PHRASED. Look for the global phrase "media" and simply change it to something else.

Thanks for the update. How can I use latin charsets for the comments?

Also, I can change the info for the media, it was a nice feature in the directory video to change the video description (i used to translate info to spanish).
I dont quite understand what you are asking. You can change the description when you add the video. You can also click the "edit media" button on the top right of a media's details page... this link will only show up if you have the appropriate permissions, or the media belongs to you.

Very nice!... rating does not work for me..
Okay, the rating bug was caused when I phrases the system and forgot to add the media phrasegroup to the ajax system. It has been fixed in the version I just uploaded...

maybe thumbnails could be a bit smaller were 4 would fit on my page..
You can edit the styles in "css templates >> media.css". Look for the /* MEDIA BIT SMALL */ section and change the width to whatever you see fit.

Excellent! I was hoping this would see new life. I pulled our old files from the database without a glitch. Waiting on a fix for the comment buttons...
Comment buttons? Whats wrong with the comment buttons? They work fine for me. It also degrades gracefully when I disable AJAX functions. So if there is an issue, please keep me informed.

Very nice mod this is.....is it possible too add categories ??? if so where do you add them ??
You can add categories by clicking on the "Administrate: Categories" link in the media library itself; NOT THE ADMIN CP. This link will only show up if your usergroup has the correct permissions.

Comment buttons? Whats wrong with the comment buttons? They work fine for me. It also degrades gracefully when I disable AJAX functions. So if there is an issue, please keep me informed.

Sorry, I meant to say the buttons on the comment form... You have it posted as a known bug.

Bold, Italic, Underline, Font color ect.

You can add categories by clicking on the "Administrate: Categories" link in the media library itself; NOT THE ADMIN CP. This link will only show up if your usergroup has the correct permissions.

just done that but still no sign of this link for adding categories.....we have 1 category general media ????? gahhh

That is very odd... it appears that media.css is not being called correctly on your forum...
http://www.wendag.com/forum/clientscript/vbulletin_css/style00010l/media.css

I have figured it out though... it seems to be a problem with the "Store CSS Stylesheets as Files?" option. A bug with VB itself handling non-default CSS styles. I'll look into it; for now, disable this option and it will work.

Ratings are working flawlessly for me... what errors are you getting exactly? Are you using the most up to date version of this? I've updated it several times today.

Is there any way to stop auto playing?
Yes, if you go into Administration: Services, you can edit the embed code of each of the hosters and turn off the autoplay flags. The flags are different for each service, so you'll have to figure it out on your own.

very nice work dude!

You can change "Media" to "Videos" in the PHRASES. This entire mod is phrased. So search your phrases for the test "Media"; the one you are probably looking for is in the GLOBAL phrasegroup.

I never used vbseo, my video urls was just like as yours at 8wayrun.com/video.php

While video from Youtube loading to videoarchive we have faced such problem:

An example:

???????? ?.??????????,????? ?????? ?. ?????????? ???????? ???., ? ?.

OK now seems to be working great all aspects seem functional. nominated
found one issue..how do you delete a category?

N/M i see you can just overwrite them to something new ..this is sweet man
I have not programmed in a method to delete categories. Categories are a required field for every media; so in order to delete a category, you would either have to move all the existing media in that category to a new category, or delete all the media within that category with it. Deleting a media also deletes ratings, comments, thumbnails, and tags that go with it. I figured it wasn't worth the time to program this in; as you can easily just change a category's information to something new, or mark it inactive. If there is enough demand, I guess I could write this in, but for now it seems pointless.

Got the following errors today:
This is a major XSS error that can lead to some nasty SQL Injection. It has been fixed in the new version I will be uploading soon. If you are concerned about security, I would recommend DISABLING THIS MOD until I upload the new version. This is REALLY REALLY REALLY BAD. Thank you for the many who have reported this bug.

What version of vB are you using? I am using 4.0.3 and everything is working fine. Someone else who is reporting the same problem you are having is using 4.0.0 PL1. vB4 has shipped with so many bugs that you really need to keep it up to date to make sure everything is working correctly. Try upgrading to the newest version of VB and then tell me if you're still having issues with permissions. This should also fix the REPORT function hopefully.

As you already figured out, you were getting this error because you enabled SEO slugs. There is an additional file which is included in the zip called ".htaccess". You MUST have an apache server, and MUST upload this file to your forum root in order to get SEO slugs to work correctly. Without this file, your website won't know how to translate the SEO slugs into workable URLs.

When submitting media we get this error:

<snip>
You did not follow the complete installation procedures.
CHMOD the /customVID directory and all directories within it to full read/write/execute 777.
You are getting these permissions errors and subsequent errors because you did not give your server full 777 rights to the directories in which thumbnails are created.

Only issue is Comments.

The error when submitting video, etc. Was sorted by disabling the slug. All folders htaccess etc followed and done prior to testing.

The avatar issue is more of a problem.

If memory serves me correct this was also an issue with Farcasters event attendance. I believe was a VB issue. ( could be totally unrelated )
Okay, new version is up with a "fix". I've also discovered a bug in VB4 relating to their avatar construction. (one of many I've discovered, but this is the only one I've bothered reporting; really VB4 is chock full of bugs)

Hey Jaxel I was wondering if there is any fix yet for the report and edit functions? Thank you again.
There is no fix on the way for this, as I can't find a problem on vb4.0.3. Make sure you are running the most recent version of VB4. Provide me with more information.

1. Upload all the files in the "upload" directory of the attached zip file to your forum root.
2. CHMOD the /customVID directory and all directories within it to full read/write/execute 777.
3. Import the product file called "product-media.xml" in the Product Manager of vBulletin.
4. Set your usergroup permissions and media library settings in your administration control panel.

Those are the steps, pretty standard. Are you new to VB? If you are I could help explain further.

This is a complete overhaul of the template system for this mod. Every old template has been replaced with new templates which include stylevars, and a new naming structure. I used replace functions in Notepad++ in order to replace the template calls in all the files so there shouldn't be any errors; however, please inform me if there are any issues with this new version, whether it be a template not being called correctly or even unchached templates.
BUG FIX: Fixed htaccess QSA errors were page numbers were not being processed.
BUG FIX: Fixed avatar constructs for comments due to a bug within vB4 itself.

I am using vBulletin's built in cURL clone called vURL. I will try to get it working with non UTF8 characters, but you're going to have to give me an example link for me to work through first.

For example, if I take this clip

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TySRnSsJ9mE

I receive such result:

http://img69.imageshack.us/img69/1925/tatut.png

http://img690.imageshack.us/img690/8410/tatu1.png

http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/5494/tatu2.png

.............................

In the version for vB 3.8 I used iconv converter:

$this->videotitle = iconv('UTF-8','cp1251', $title);

How to upgrade from 4.01 version ?
Do we need to install the whole "upload" folder again or just the new XML?

Thanks for the mod !

Generally speaking, with modifications, you will want to re-upload everything when an update comes out. I've been updating this mod something like 5 times a day since it came out, so I understand thats quite a lot of work. But its not a lot of files, so it really won't take much. Updates will slow down soon as I believe I have most of the bugs worked out. (Really, most of the bugs are caused by VB itself not acting the way it should)

For example, if I take this clip

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TySRnSsJ9mE

New version just uploaded will now process foreign languages correctly. For some odd reason, vBulletin's built in XML parser converts everything to ISO-8859-1 by default. I don't understand why, when EVERY OTHER XML parser in existence converts things to Unicode. Thankfully, they let you force an encoding type with a simple value pass. So I have forced the parser to read every feed as UTF-8.

I can not get admin options.
I gave the necessary user group izinleride What can I do please help.

Please update your VB to 4.0.3

Version 4.0.3 AUTO CREATE AND VERIFICATION FEATURES
================================================== =========

NEW FEATURE: The Auto-Create Thread feature has once again returned!
NEW FEATURE: Tag, Comment, Description and Title verification handlers now follow built in vB4 settings. Each of these fields will follow their related forum setting such as "Tag Minimum Length" or "Tag Maximum Length". If a field should fail to meet the specifications, the error handlers will now explain why it has failed in more detail.
BUG FIX: Fixed information retrieval for feeds with non-Latin sources.
BUG FIX: Fixed phrasegroup error within AJAX functions created in 4.0.2.
BUG FIX: Miscellaneous SQL and template errors no one knew about but me.

04-20-2010, 08:48 PM

Nice work! :)

A few bugs/requests after having a quick play with it on my test site;

If Can browse the library is set to No for a user group then hide the navbar from them.
When adding new comments, 10 seems to be the minimum number of characters allowed, irrespective of the setting in ADMIN CP > Settings > Options > Message Posting and Editing Options> Minimum Characters Per Post. If possible, if a user tries to enter a message that is too short then it should say what the minimum length allowed is (rather than just "too short").
Attempting to edit a comment returns an error of "The comment you have entered is far too short and has been rejected." (regardless of comment length).
There is no way to delete a comment (unless this is done via the "Edit" link?).
If you enter a comment it displays the message "Your comment has been posted! It will show up shortly..." which remains there even when the message has already shown up and prevents the user from being able to submit another comment (without refreshing the page).
Error messages (such as "Our records show that this particular media is already in the media library!") don't have 'Back' buttons, so if a user encounters them there's no way to navigate away from it.
The "Report Media" feature doesn't seem to work.
Tagging doesn't follow the minimum value set in ADMIN CP > Settings > Options > Tagging Options > Tag Minimum Length.

They're just a few minor things I found but overall very impressive and thanks for your work :).
1. I'll look into it
2. Fixed in new version.
3. Editing comments works fine for me, vb4.0.3... what other mods do you have installed?
4. Yes, deleting comments is done through the edit link.
5. This is BY DESIGN. If you look at YouTube, it does a the same thing. You can only comment on a video once without refreshing. This is a deterrent so that people don't try to spam the comments.
6. The error pages use the built in error system for VB. There is no back button because VB itself does not have a back button built in. A user can simply press the back button on their browser, or use the backspace key to go back a page.
7. Reporting media works fine for me, vb4.0.3... what other mods do you have installed?
8. Fixed in new version.

If you didn't change your templates, the obsolete templates should have been deleted automatically. Anything without "8wr_media" in the front is obsolete.

"Like" button or "Thanks" button integration on media page

"Featured Media" on Main page of Media Library

A cracking feature would be:

A submit button on forum post ( for users when creating posts ) to submit the video within that post to the media centre.

Similar system to vbookie, or polls. Where users place a post anyway, and in this case a tick box ( with perhaps category drop down ) allows the user to simultaneously submit the video to media center after they have submitted new post.

With integration of video parsing in vbulletin this could be done one of two ways, as above: or an extra tick box, when a user clicks the video bbcode button in editor.

This would inevitably propogate the media library quicker and make it more intune with the forum.

Okay but can't access it it due to error above.

Can you give me the URL that the report page sends you to after you submit? If you are using the SEO slugs, try the MOST RECENT version of .htaccess included in the zip.

If you open up "product-medialibrary.xml", you'll see that every phrase is timestamped with version numbers. Anything with 4.0.2 or 4.0.3 will need to be updated. You should be using the phrase manager from within your admin CP to update your phrases. It will make it easier for you to find which phrases have been updated.

Also, I have no idea what you said about {vb:raw submitsmall}...

A small Bug with Auto-create Thread feature...when enabled..it does get created inside the forum , but on the main forum it does not show as there is a new thread .
That is very weird. Looks like vb changed something because I'm using the same thread creation datamanager (which is included with vb) that I was using with Video Directory Remixed...

You use the auto thread create , thats why you see it. the rss link you posted is the standard vbulletin rss link. its an own rss feed for media library only

i only get the rss feed to show up in safari. no other browsers. tested safari, firefox, ie and opera

Jaxel

04-21-2010, 03:01 PM

Feeds are working for me in every browser I have... Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome and Opera...

http://test.8wayrun.com/media.php?do=rss
http://test.8wayrun.com/media.php?do=rss&cid=10

They also validate on Feedburner... Anyone who is having trouble with the feeds, I want you to try something for me...

First go into your usergroup permissions and make sure UNREGISTERED can view library and view details

If RSS feeds still dont work... open "media_functions_hrefs.php"... find:
return "media" . ($vbulletin->options['media_doseo'] ? "/" : ".php?".$vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl']);
Replace with...
return "media" . ($vbulletin->options['media_doseo'] ? "/" : ".php?");

Tell me if the feed (and the rest of the mod) work for you after this.

Delilahs

04-21-2010, 03:39 PM

can't find media_functions_href.php

only

media_functions_hrefs.php

and that is a blank file

it may be a good idea to upload the complete file set that you have working and upload it to here with the correct version number

Jaxel

04-21-2010, 03:43 PM

Sorry, I meant media_functions_hrefs.php...

and that file CANT be blank. If that file is blank, then not a single link on your media library would work. Redownload the entire package and reinstall, it sounds like you download a bum zip.

Can you give me the URL that the report page sends you to after you submit? If you are using the SEO slugs, try the MOST RECENT version of .htaccess included in the zip.

Ah ha! The source of the problem is when SEO is set to No. If I set it to yes then I can see both the edit and report pages (although I'm still not sure where the report goes to?). With SEO off then the links are forum/media.php?do=comment&mid=X and forum/media.php?do=details_report&mid=X respectively, which fail.

when i try the rss feed link in feed burner i only get this error message

The URL does not appear to reference a valid XML file. We encountered the following problem: Error on line 27: The reference to entity "cid" must end with the ';' delimiter.
Fix for this coming soon... "&cid" should be "&cid".

New version should be coming tommorow, and will be 100% XHTML validated.

That would be awesome, and to be honest I am surprised these options haven't appeared so far. If the author offered a Pro version for sale that included options to upload images and videos (or incorporated images/videos uploaded via ftp) I would buy it. This is the last part of my site that I need to replace before I can switch over from Wordpress :(

Jaxel: If you include these options in a future version you will definitely either get a purchase or a donation from me as soon as my next batch of ad money comes in.

I dont quite understand what you are asking. You can change the description when you add the video. You can also click the "edit media" button on the top right of a media's details page... this link will only show up if you have the appropriate permissions, or the media belongs to you.What I tried to say is that I can't edit the media description. When I click submit or save all I get is the original description again, even if i changed it.

My other question is how to use latin chars in the comments?

What I tried to say is that I can't edit the media description. When I click submit or save all I get is the original description again, even if i changed it.

This also happens on both my sites ..... but it does save into a different directory if I choose that option, and saves any changes in the Title - it's just the comments don't change on edit

Uploaded via FTP coming in next version. Videos should be uploaded by FTP to customVID directory (default). Then you submit the video to the library using the syntax "internal:videolocation". So if a video is located at customVID/video.mp4, you type in "internal:video.mp4". If a video is located at customVID/folder3/video7.flv (dont forget to CHMOD 777 folder3), you type in "internal:folder3/video7.flv". Of course, since there is no XML or video data, that means the system can't extract a thumbnail, title, description, timecode or tags. It will auto generate a title and description based on the filename, and will give a default thumbnail, but the rest will have to be inputted manually. A nice donation would be appreciated...

Not unless every server on the net suddenly installed FFmpegPHP on their servers, this isn't going to happen. In order to extract information from a video, such as thumbnails, length, tags or any such other ID information, there needs to be the libraries required to do so installed on your server. No server comes with video libraries installed by default; hell, there are still a ton of servers out there that don't have GD2 (image libraries)!

What you can do is click "Edit Details" and at the bottom is the option to upload a custom thumbnail. So you can upload a custom thumbnail for every media in your system. However, be warned, if you ever run the "Rebuild Thumbnail Information" process, it will seek out original thumbnails from the service host. I have written in an exception so that it will SKIP the rebuild of any thumbnails in the INTERNAL service host group; but for other service hosts (like YouTube, etc), this process will overwrite your custom thumbnails.

Hehe, I should have been more specific: any chance of having image galleries implemented someday in the future? As I mentioned above, if you incorporated images into the galleries and then created an upload script you could definitely sell it as a Pro version.

Also, my site runs on a private server, so if I can make sure FFmpegPHP and GD2 are installed will that help with the thumbnails thing?

Thanks for the responses btw!

I believe jaxel will provide a guide on how to make your own hosters, so you can make hosters for images. Personally I don't like to have image galleries in media library, but I would love to have audio/mp3 media implemented in the future, so we will be able to make songs albums, playlists etc.

================================================== =========
Version 4.0.4 XHTML VALIDATED AND THUMBNAIL REWRITE
================================================== =========

CHANGE: Thumbnails are now stored in "/customVID/thumbs/" (default) directory.
UPGRADERS: If you are upgrading to 4.0.4 from a previous edition of this mod, you can now delete all the "/customVID/0-9/" thumbnail folders, but should make sure to CHMOD the "/customVID/thumbs/" folder to 777. In addition, upgraders will be required to run the "Rebuild Thumbnail Process" to generate thumbnails in the appropriate folder.
CHANGE: Administrate Services control panel is more streamlined for editing.
CHANGE: This mod is now 100% XHTML certified using the W3C XHTML Validator.
NEW FEATURE: You can now enable/disable the autoplay feature in media.
UPGRADERS: If you are upgrading to 4.0.4 from a previous edition of this mod, you must MANUALLY make changes in your services to handle the new "autoplay" setting. The new Administrate Services page will make this update process easy. Just read THIS POST (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=2022842&postcount=3) and copy and paste the recommended embed codes into the appropriate Edit Service page.
NEW FEATURE: You can now host media locally on your server! Media must be uploaded to the "/customVID/" (default) directory. Then you can add the media to the library by using the codes "localvideo:filename.ext" or "localaudio:filename.ext" as the Media URL on the submit form. You can also add subdirectories inside of "/customVID/"; so if you uploaded "/customVID/intros/SC2intro.mkv", you can add it as a video to your library with "localvideo:intros/SC2intro.mkv". Media hosted locally will be displayed using JWPlayer, but will not provide meta data, so that kind of information will need to be entered manually.
BUG FIX: Comments and Descriptions will now parse URLs into BBcode.
BUG FIX: Auto-Create Threads will now properly update forum last post times.
BUG FIX: Deleting a media will now properly delete the assosciated thumbnail.
BUG FIX: Fixed report page for those not using Search Engine Optimization.
BUG FIX: Fixed RSS Feeds for those not using Search Engine Optimization.

Interesting... can you replace the contents of the plugin "media ADMIN thumb" with the following code and tell me if that works? I don't actually use MegaVideo, and I know their RSS feed is so out of whack it took me a bit just to get it working...

if ($_REQUEST['do'] == 'chooser')
{
print_form_header('misc', 'rebuild_media_thumbs');
print_table_header("Rebuild Media Thumbnails", 2, 0);
print_description_row("This function will rebuild the thumbnails in the media library.");
print_input_row("Number of media to process per cycle", 'perpage', 50);
print_input_row("Media ID Staring Location", 'startat', 0);
print_submit_row("Rebuild Media Thumbnails");
}

if ($_REQUEST['do'] == 'rebuild_media_thumbs')
{
require_once(DIR . '/media/media_functions_builds.php');
require_once(DIR . '/media/media_functions_hrefs.php');

if (empty($vbulletin->GPC['perpage']))
{
$vbulletin->GPC['perpage'] = 50;
}

$finishat = $vbulletin->GPC['startat'] + $vbulletin->GPC['perpage'];

echo '' . "Rebuild Media Thumbnails" . '';

$medias = $vbulletin->db->query_read_slave("
SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "media as media
LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "media_service AS media_service ON(media_service.serviceID = media.serviceID)
WHERE mediaID >= " . $vbulletin->GPC['startat'] . " AND mediaID < $finishat
ORDER BY mediaID
");

while ($media = $vbulletin->db->fetch_array($medias))
{
echo construct_phrase($vbphrase['processing_x'], $media['mediaID']) . " - <a href=\"../" . construct_href_details($media) . "\" target=\"_blank\">" . $media['title'] . "</a> "; vbflush();

if ($media['svcThumb'])
{
if (($media['svcName'] == "LocalVideo") || ($media['svcName'] == "LocalAudio"))
{
echo ' - LOCAL MEDIA - SKIPPING THUMBNAIL RECONSTRUCTION ';
}
else
{
$media['feed'] = str_replace('{serviceVAL}', $media['serviceVAL'], $media['svcFeed']);
$feed['serviceVAL'] = $media['serviceVAL'];

require_once(DIR.'/includes/class_xml.php');
require_once(DIR.'/includes/class_vurl.php');

$vurl = new vB_vURL($vbulletin);
$vurl->set_option(VURL_URL, $media['feed']);
$vurl->set_option(VURL_USERAGENT, 'vBulletin/' . FILE_VERSION . ' | Media');

$xmlobj = new vB_XML_Parser($result);

eval("\$thu = $media[svcThumb]");

if (!$thu)
{

exit;
}

Okay, give me the link to retry from the custom position because I don't wanna rebuild all thumbnails again, these are 1000+ you know :D

Ask on the VBSEO forums. Honestly, if you have an apache server and VB4, you shouldn't be using VBSEO. VBSEO does rewrites through code execution, instead of actual apache rewrite rules. Additional code execution will only bog your server down, while apache rewrite is pretty much instant and doesn't add much of any additional server load.

ok jaxel now the rss feed works, but something is wrong after you did the thumbnail edit in customvid 0-9 over to customvid/thumbs.. the images links in rss feed doesnt work cause the links is looking in customvid/0-9 / filename... i did all the update counters on thumbs and media info. But still the same result..also on a newly posted video

here is an example on the rss feed image link

http://www.xxxx.xx/customVID/1/ArAlwupRy6c.jpg

cause when i go into Media and right click on the image and choose copy image url this is the url i get which is correct
http://www.xxxxxx.xx/customVID/thumbs/69.jpg

how can i fix that the links inn rss feed look like this http://www.xxxx.xx/customVID/thumbs/69.jpg instead ???

thx

On the Media page, you will see the Admin control area option at the Sub menu of the Media page. It is working 100%, really mod, I enjoy it! Except the SEO that didn't work for me because I'm using vBSEO.

I have the same Problem. All permissions are set. When I enter the URL (ex. media.php?do=admin_host_edit&sid=$1) it works. But no Admin Control Area is shown...

did a complete reinstall and got the product working , and i did install this product first, then started adding in others. the only thing that isn't working now is google adsense ads don't appear. wondered if anyone else is seeing this or using the adsence program?

Solved this. wasnt an issue with this mod, it was VB, they neglected to ad the adsence file to the most recent download of 4.0.3.
So cause a problem with new installs. Also there is a new patch for that version 4.0.3pl1
I find the easiest way to do them is
1. download the new file
2. unzip it and delete the images file, favicon. ico, and install,php
3 zip it back up and upload it to the appropriate files
and run http://yourdomain.com/yourforum/install/upgrade.php
your done

Delilahs

04-23-2010, 01:58 PM

could it be that the people who have google adsense cant get the admin links and vice versa?

I'll disable some forum ads to see what happens this end

Jaxel

04-23-2010, 03:12 PM

For anyone who is having problems getting links to appear with permissions in the navbar... there is a "work-a-round" you can do. It will enable the links for EVERYBODY (they will be stopped with a permission error if they can't use the links, so security is still intact). I believe this problem is an error with VB itself not handling permissions in plugins on some forums. Go into the plugin: "media NAVTAB":

Find the line:
$perms = media_permissions();

REPLACE with:
$perms['submit'] = true;
$perms['modtags'] = true;
$perms['modcategory'] = true;
$perms['modservice'] = true;

I just uploaded a new version, fixes a variety of problems. No need to re-install, just upload the files.

http://www.veoh.com/search/videos/q/stoke+city#watch%3Dv19614098RApHrbDQ
Thats because that URL is NOT a URL to a Veoh Video. That is a SEARCH RESULT URL. On that page, scroll down to the text box that says "LINK" and use that URL.

What about this problem , can you solve this one ? :)
Fixed in new version, no need to re-install, just upload the files.

Turkish char. problem?

What happened...
I uninstalled everything and re-installed the mod, but I still have the same problem.
Can't use spanish characters nor can I edit the video descriptions. :(

After extensive testing, I have figured out the language problems. Language problems in SUBMISSIONS are fixed in the new version, no need to re-install, just upload the files.

Language problems in OTHER places, such as comments are THE FAULT OF VBULLETIN ITSELF. Don't worry! I will tell you how to fix it! Go into your Admin Control Panel and head to the section called "Languages & Phrases > Language Manager". Then click the EDIT SETTINGS link for your language. See I have programmed this mod to integrate directly into the settings of your VB; this way it is uniform. However, the problem is by default, vBulletin does not use the UTF-8 language charset, even though it SHOULD. In the section marked "HTML Character Set", this SHOULD be UTF-8 and if you are having language problems, most likely it is set to ISO-8859-1 (vb default, for english languages only).

Example of my test forum using Russian Language after switching to UTF-8:
http://test.8wayrun.com/media/m1493--tatu

The only issue you will have with THIS mod is with SEO slugs, you can't have foreign characters in a URL.

Another issue you will have is with VB itself and the RSS Feed Manager. If you are using VB's RSS Feed Manager to automatically post threads from feeds, and the feed you are pulling from is non-english; then it won't convert the text to UTF-8. For some odd reason, VB's built in RSS parser always defaults to ISO-8859-1 (very poor programming). Someone should report this as a bug, but I have a feeling that they will say its "by design" and never change it.
