Hi Jaxel,

Is megavideo thumbnails working for you? I did some testing with adding new megavideo items and it worked fine. I though I fixed the issue so I tried building the thumbnails in the update counter section and the new entries are now just black thumbnails too. I've played around with the permissions for the thumbs directory as well in the "customVID" folder but no luck. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Megavideo thumbnails not working for us either, at least the new releases anyway. I uploaded an old megavideo URL today and it created the thumbnail just fine but newly uploaded videos to megavideo URL has been not creating thumnail at all. This has been going on for a few days now. Any ideas anyone?

EDITED: I may add when I ran the rebuild thumbnail process same thing happen as you Dangerboy , the thumbnail just became black. And for some reason it took a while to rebuild about 10 of them. I don't believe it is a permissions issue or anything from the script end, sometimes megavideo changes their API so we might have to change the megavideo.xml if someone knows how to update that it would be extremely helpful.

Hello Jaxel,

Thank for your response. Is it maybe possible for us to get a tut of some sorts so we can change the importer ourselves or is it too complicated? I am more or less familiar with the API but have very little experience with the importers. Either way it would be very helpful to all members who use this mod and I am sure less of a burden for you . :) Thanks again for your quick reply though. I hope we can get this updated at some point, Megavideo represents about 50% of our imports. Any help with this would be as always very much appreciated.

It's not hard to change. On the media main page, click on the "Administrate" dropdown and select "Services". Then find the Megavideo line and select "edit" on the right. I think this is what needs to be changed for the thumbnails but I am not sure:

Code:

preg_match('#[\w+%.-]*'.$service['serviceVAL'].'([\w]*)[\w+%.-]*#i',$arr['ROW']['embed'],$match);$thu='http://img1.megavideo.com/'.$match[1].'.jpg'

This API works for me if I import a new video but not on the rebuild.

I tried a few of the previous versions as well but the one in the current version appears to be correct. If I import a video from megavideo, it captures the thumbnail. If I try to rebuild the older ones, it will not pull the thumbnail and I lose the new one I imported. I am searching now to see what the difference is with the rebuild vs the import.

Thanks for the post Dander but that API is the same as the old one we currently have. For me if we upload a new video to megavideo and use the current API we do not get a thumnail, just a broken image and when we run the media rebuild thumbnail we just get a black image. :( Need your help Jaxel.

Just installed this addon and it is looking good. Have to work on the style but that is because of my site, not the addon.

Anyway, a suggestion for a future version. It would be nice to be able to put media into multiple categories. For instance, I am doing a movie site and could have a movie in "Action/Adventure" and "Western". You'll probably tell me to just use tags but then that makes the categories worthless because then everything will have to be done by tags.
