- - Major Additions - Video-Directory Remixed (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=200819)

It seems that my admin doesnt do anything after displaying the following info:

Importing Product, Please Wait...

[:]

* Creating Table video ... Done!
* Creating Table videocategory ...
* Altering Table video ...Done!
* Altering Table videocategory ...Done!
* Altering Table session ...Done!
* Altering Table usergroup ...Done!

* Creating Table videocomment ... Done!
* Altering Table video ...Done!

* Creating Table videorate ... Done!
* Altering Table video ...Done!
Done!Done!

* Creating Table videohosterapi ... Done!
* Altering Table video ...Done!

* Altering Table video ...Done!

It doesnt finish or do anything else. If I check to see if its installed then I see that it isnt.

Any ideas why or a fix?

Its ok now. Managed to install it.

But its not showing anything in the forum except 'Video Directory' link which the administrator doesnt seem to have access to.

I just noticed that when loading in an HD video clip from YouTube, the HD version of a video is not playing automatically, you still have to click on the HD icon in the YouTube player, to get it running in HD mode. It was working at some point in the past, so perhaps YouTube have made some changes recently?

Anyone know what I need to adjust in the hoster file or elsewhere to have YouTube HD videos play in HD mode from the start (without having to click on HD)?

Thanks in advance.

Don't tell me again to create a folder, etc...none of that has worked. I'm on 3.8 btw... There's clearly something wrong in terms of having the standard member avatars show with comments. If anyone has clear directions on how to fix this, it would be greatly appreciated! Seeing that stupid '?' in place of a great avatar just doesn't cut it.

My avatars show in my comments. At first they did not. I know you don't want to hear the make a folder instructions but that really does fix the problem. I had to rebuild my avatar cache as well. The permissions of the folder are important as well. Maybe it matters if your avatar images are being stored in your database or file system? Maybe it matters what theme or skin you are using? Wish I could help you out better here. I had a ruff time installing but worked it all out.

Secondly, maybe I'm just ignorant, but I cannot figure out how to add a hoster. Even where, as with Veoh, an xml file is provided, there are no instructions anywhere I can see as to what to do with it and how to 'add' a video site.

This I am sure I can help you with. I agree the instructions for adding back in the hosters is very poor.

I will assume your video admin panel is showing up correctly inside your vb AdminCP. If you see "Video Directory" listed then it should be.

Adding Hosters Instructions
1. Go to AdminCP > Video Directory > Manage Hoster
2. In the field labeled "import the XML file from your server" you will need to type in the following hoster xml info one by one to add them in.

./includes/xml/videohoster-Dailymotion.xml
./includes/xml/videohoster-MegaVideo.xml
./includes/xml/videohoster-Metacafe.xml
./includes/xml/videohoster-Veoh.xml
./includes/xml/videohoster-Vimeo.xml
./includes/xml/videohoster-VimeoHD.xml
./includes/xml/videohoster-YouTube.xml
./includes/xml/videohoster-YouTubeHD.xml

3. Copy and paste the above hoster xml locations in and click "Import" following the on screen prompts.

These instructions are how you re-import the default hosters or in the future add in new ones which get developed. ;)

Finally, why can we not add an image or banner to the custom text atop the Video Directory - other bb codes work but the image tags will not. That's just strange?

What image code are you using and where exactly are you entering it?

I dont mean to be a pest - but would someone please help me? An important part of my forum is dependent on this mod.

Ive installed it but there are no visible changes to the forum afterwards, nor am I able to access the 'video directory' link.

Okay... I haven't been keeping up...

Would someone mind putting a list together of bugs and feature requests?

@mumin_abdul... set your usergroup permissions...
@funkmeister... youtube changed the way they handle HD vids, fix already on my forums, will come in next version.

Jaxel my good man ... you are a genius!

Just a little problem - is there a way to set the video directory as the default layout when people visit the forum?

My request would be to add a picture hosting service - where you can upload images related to each video.

Awsome mod, thank you!

Can anyone tell me which template (and where specifically) to edit to reduce the width? I've searched this entire thread and found about 3 people ask as well, but now answer besides "in the related templates." Can anyone be more specific? I have a fixed template as well and when you view the video, it's breaking up the template.

Thank you very much for the help.
