1 - DONE! Coming in next version! I learned how to do ajax! Yay!
2 - as I said, this simply wont be possible; the embed codes itself are based on the URL of the video. So to change the URL of the video, you would break the embed codes.
3 - DONE! In current version as "display levels"... coming with fixes in next version.
4 - DONE! In current version... coming with fixes in next version
5 - DONE! Coming in next version as TAG CLOUD!
6 - Already in Survivor's version, its in your general video settings... I have re-arranged everything and made things easier to understand in my next version.
7 - DONE! Coming in next version as "Can see hidden listings" usergroup permission!
8 - DONE! Coming in next version as "timelength"!

Okay... I realised the way I was doing #7 was completely asanine and complicated. Why was a creating a new exception that had to be calculated on every listing... it was just plain stupid, a pain in the ass, and added a lot of extra queries. So I made it simple...

The whole category setting stuff works as usual... you can turn off listing of categories for usergroups on a case by case basis, as well as the option to de-activate the category for everybody. As well, when searching by tags and users, it will call on the category of the video and exclude videos that are in categories that a user does not have permission to read.

But now I have added a new usergroup permission called "Can Watch Videos". Unless this is set to yes, a usergroup can not watch any videos. They can do everything else that they have permissions for, but hey cant watch videos. This would be great if you want to let unregistered/guests view all video information, but not actually watch the video itself.

Its a lot simpler this way.

Try this...

Hi.. Jaxel,

You Rock man..!

This is a most satisfying reply I ever got in vb.org, and a wonderful support from a Not-Supported Mod.

May I add a #9 in my list.

#9 - There is no add Video button at viewing video Page or Video Home page. (Right we need to go to each category to get the Add Video Button). How about adding the button at both these places. Is it possible?

Thanks.

Thank you much and thanks to Jaxel as well.

But it is getting confusing, I need to first install the Survivor version, then install Jaxel version?

I see Jaxel is talking about releasing a new one, my humble request will be to release a new MOD with all these features and a one time install.

regards

I'm still waiting on word from Survivor for permission... otherwise, I cant.

Okay... it looks like this will be my first major mod release if Survivor agrees to it...

Is there anyone out there who would be willing to help me test the install code?

I'm looking for 1 person who is running my last version... and 1 person who is running survivor's version. Send me a message on AIM: BadBreath911 if you are interested.

If it's released as a separate mod, does that mean losing all the current videos?

how do i add a box above the 'latest videos' box on video.php page containing instructional and rules information..?

No, it will use all the same tables, so you will lose nothing, except for your Limit settings... which you will need to reconfigure. I haven't figured out a way to fix this bug, but it happens EVERY time you upgrade/install this mod.

Just edit video_home with your HTML.

Thanks for the heads up.

anyway to add clips from video.google.com ?

thumbnails arent showing for me....here or on CMPS :(

Hey. There is no video hosters showing up on the second step? What is the problem?

It is also not letting me access the page. "It is giving me the whole "you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:". I turned all the permissions to 777. What is the problem?

What are the permissions to your thumbs folder?

/videothumbnails is 777

edit: my mistake. I didnt do that for the subfolders. sorry bout that.

great idea

photobucket videos..??

great mod btw..!

sorry, i dont see video_home..! do you mean video.php ?

Only possible if they provide API's

@ above: video_home template in your admin

I dont know much about anything but what about this

http://code.google.com/apis/ajaxsearch/multimedia.html

video_home is a template. You need to edit it anyway to get rid of the references to Jaxel's website. :)

Hey, Jaxel - just thought - that would work great as a text field in the AdminCP.

Already put it in yesterday.

Hi Jaxel, have you heard from Surviver? Are you going to release any update for this mod?

I'm still waiting for his response... I have everything read to go... just waiting for him.

Oh... and umm... check the comments...
http://www.8wayrun.com/video.php?do=...ils&videoid=87

Avatars!

Jaxel, you rock! :D

Holy mackerol...those comments with the avatars look great! I can't wait for the next round of updates this week! :up:

By the way, someone should concentrate (wish I knew how to help with this mod) on getting additional video sites added to the mod. I know that AME has a TON because of DJ's work on the add-on to the mod (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=195884). Maybe the same sort of approach may apply, but I don't know enough to adapt it to this mod.

The AME works through regular expressions and preg matching. It does't retrieve any information from any service's API's. All the information it pulls are from the URL. You can't pull thumbnails, time codes, and keywords from a URL. But its actually VERY EASY to work in a new script for services.

I can't read through this whole thread.

What do I do if I get a create video table database error while trying to upload xml?

Jaxel,

Any news? I have a new site I want to launch but want to use this version as I'm starting with VB 3.8 on it and it's a clean install. Please let me know. Thanks, rg.

How do you add a category?

Rolando,

FYI, Jaxel is working on things within his mod.

Lionsloser07,

You can go to AdminCP --> Videos --> Add a Category

I missed this too. There is a Videos section on the left side in admincp.

Hm. It is giving me a database error when I try to add a category. Is this mod compatible with vB 3.8.0?

People are using it with 3.8.0 already with no reported issues (check up a few posts for an example of one).

Personally, I'm running 3.7.4 at the moment with no issues to report. :D

Whichever error you are getting, look through this thread (use the "search this mod" option at the top) and try and see what the fix is. If you still can't find the answer, then you should post your database error code here and someone should be able to help you with it.

Good luck! :D

Here is my database error that i am receiving when I am trying to add a category:

Database error in vBulletin 3.8.0:

Invalid SQL:
INSERT INTO videocategory

Sounds like not all your tables where created upon installation.

Thank you very much for letting me know. I'm working on a cool Wordpress/Vbulletin site, can't believe I'm doing it, but somehow I've played with it enough that it feels rather seamless when you go back and forth. So I need the video section as part of it cause VB does it better for video pages and stuff, the cool part, you won't be able to tell by looking at it if your on the WP or VB side...unless you know both programs and plugins/mods...thanks, hope to showcase a cool site soon, rg sends!

I have the same thing............. :D

What's your sites content about? I'll let you look around my board for ideas if you need.
