This mod has been rewritten for vB4x here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=240677

This modification is based on the Video-Directory modification by Survivor and vBPoint.org.
His mod is NOT dead, its still alive and kicking; but he has informed me that he just doesn't have the time to maintain it and give support. So until he is able to work on it agian; I've been doing a series of updates.

What is this mod?

This mod adds a fully featured and fully integrated video directory archive to your forums. Users can add their favorite videos from their favorite video service to the directory. I only support a few select hosters; but the hoster scripting is XML base, so any user can create their own scripts for any number of hosting services. The old MyVideo and Sevenload scripts from Survivor's version will still work, but they wont pull in Keyword/Tagging information, nor the video length time codes.

Basic Feature Listing:
  • Fully integrated into the vBulletin user database and product manager.
  • Fully phrased and built on templates for easy reskinning and styling.
  • Fully administratable and a myriad of settings for personalization.
  • Complete customization of permissions based on usergroups.
  • Landing page for broad information and fully featured tag cloud.
  • Category profiles for videos.
  • Contribution profiles for users.
  • Keyword profiles for tag cloud.
  • Built in comment system for videos.
  • Search function for titles and descriptions.
  • RSS feed of videos.
Product Demo:
http://www.8wayrun.com/video.php
Installation Procedure:
  1. Upload all files in the "upload" directory to your forum root.
  2. CHMOD /videothumbnails/* and /includes/videoserviceapi to 777.
  3. Import the product "product-videodirectory.xml" in your Product Manager.
  4. Follow the on screen instructions to configure your video hoster settings.
  5. Refresh your administration control panel to see the new navigation links.
NOTES:
vBulletin 3.7.0 instituted a new avatar-thumbnail system. There is a high probability that you are unaware of this new system and may have failed to setup your vBulletin to make use of it. Make sure that a directory called /thumbs is located in your avatar directory and CHMOD it to 777. Then go into Maintenance > Update Counters and run the Rebuild Custom Avatar Thumbnails process.
Upgrade Procedure:
  1. Upload all files in the "upload" directory to your forum root.
  2. Take note of the information stored in Limits of Videos > General Settings.
  3. Import the product "product-videodirectory.xml" in your Product Manager.
  4. Re-establish your previous Limits settings in Videos > General Settings.
  5. Re-import ALL of your hosters and settings in Videos > Manage hosters.
    • You MUST remember to re-import your hosters after upgrading.
NOTES:
You may lose your category dataman when you upgrade. If no categories are listed after an upgrade, you will be required to rebuild your category dataman. Its very easy to rebuild it if you need to. Simply go into Videos > Manage categories, select ANY category and hit [Edit], then click [Save]. Your category dataman will automatically be rebuilt.
Roadmap for the Future:
  • Moderation
  • Favorites
  • Playlists
Don't forget to click INSTALL!

Hey,
sure I did that. Now I reinstalled it but it is the same problem again. Indeed the mod creates the thumbnails but then they have the wrong CHMOD and aren't showed.

Any other solutions? Thanks!

some bugs about creating new hosters:
1. did not create or check thumbnails subdirectory of hoster on xml import.
2. thumbnails may not be JPG. thumbnails could be saved in other formats, but it looks for JPG on display.
3. i tried to "return $this->url" in fetch_videourl function but failed. in some sites, the url just can not be formatted simply with videoid.
4. if tags exceed limit, no tag will be saved. should be sliced down to the limit automatically.

suggestions:
1. what can i do if there is no thumbnail?
2. a lot of temp files vbuploadxxxx left in the root dir. plz remove them or create them in a tmp dir.

Are there any plans to extend this mod to be able to upload videos yourself?
I mean not only onto YouTube & Co but also to my own forum?

A.

I noticed that when I am posting comment to video my avatar does not appear, instead I am getting a standard "error" gif. So I further investigated what the problem is.

Actually my Avatar is stored in following URL address . However Video Directory calls it from following URL address:
Quote:
http://forums.test.com/customavatars/thumbs/avatar1_2.gif
. Looks like it calls for thumbs directory. Why is that? Why the Avatar is not called from the same directory as Vbulletin uses.

I would appreciate the help to solve it.

Thanks

EB
