Major Additions - Video Club (YouTUBE, Vimeo, DailyMotion etc)

Since 2006 I was serving community members with my Free Mods
But as this site will starts operating by the company,
I'm no willing to support them

** File Removed **


Video Club
Fetch Videos from many Providers with URL
since ver. 1.2.0 you can also embed any valid video code

Things to know !!!

• If your site is SSL and you try to show a video from a non SSL site, video should not works.
• If you can't show YouTUBE videos, most probably your API key is wrong. Be sure that you've setup correct the API key and it is ver. 3. Here is a good tutorial.
• If you see strange characters in the text, the problem is character encoding. Even in English, if you're using iso-8859-1 but the video provider uses UTF-8 should have some problems. But you can edit the text, so not so important issue.

Demo Installation
demouser1 / demopass1
demouser2 / demopass2
demouser3 / demopass3
PS: In my demo I've setup Disqus as commenting system. But it's up to you to setup Threads instead.

1.- What's this?

Video Club is a Video Gallery mod for your community. It's easy to use and has a nice interface. User just needs to enter a link to the video and set a category. All others done automatically. For comments supports Thread per video but also the well known Disqus external commenting system. I strongly recommend you to use Disqus as it's very social and soon you'll see an increment amount of pageviews.

2.- Video Providers (Websites)

• 5min.com
• Blip.tv
• Break.com
• Collegehumor.com
• Dailymotion.com
• Funnyordie.com
• Gametrailers.com
• Hulu.com
• Justin.tv
• Metacafe.com
• MySpace.com
• Ustream.tv
• Veoh.com
• Vimeo.com
• Screen.Yahoo.com
• YouTUBE.com
• ver. 1.2.0 NEW!! Now you can add manual any video code your want

3.- Comments

Not only one but 3 types for comments (plus an option to not use comments)

• Thread
• Disqus
• Ajax comments

4. Installation

1. Upload all files from upload folder to the folder where your vBulletin 4.2 is installed
2. CMOD 777 the directories
   1. videoclub/thumbs
   2. videoclub/thumbs/tmp
3. Login to your admincp and import the file product-videoclub.xml
4. Set Usergroup permissions
5. Set General Options according to your needs
   1. ** MOST IMPORTANT SETTINGS **
   2. Get a YouTUBE API key from https://console.developers.google.co...is/credentials
   3. Decide if you'll use Threads for comments or Disqus. If you'll use Disqus set your site at: https://disqus.com/admin/create/
   4. Set Server Path to Uploads !!!
6. If you want modify PM templates but don't touch anything between {}
7. Set the Categories

5.- PRO Version

After many years I decided to use PRO version not as a way not to earn money (I don't expect to have more than 10 sales), but rather to find a way to pay for some commercial scripts that I want to use in the PRO version (Distribution License). The follow features will be in the PRO version:

• Extra Providers
  • Facebook
  • LiveLeak.com
  • OpenLoadMovies.com
• Videoplayer with support for prevideo ads
• Better carousel for latest videos at top
• Video search in multiple providers
• Many notifications
• Brand free

Edit: See attached pic which shows the error when I paste any YouTube or Vimeo link into the field and click submit ..

As you can see in my installation it works. Only thumbnail is missing as it's an old video. That's why in the next release I'll give to user the ability to upload a thumbnail if it does not exists (or if they don't like the default).

So there is an error in your side. Are you sure that your YouTUBE Api key is correct?

I put the following API in which is what I was assigned... (note .. I altered the numbers for security)

youtube-1234567

Edit: For clarity, it's not the really LONG bunch of at least 20-30 numbers/characters string they refer to as the KEY. Correct? It's just the smaller string like youtube-1234567... yes?

[paradoxG(r)eek]

Can't understand if a key is valid or not. In anycase try this key below and let me know.

[lillylissy]

Yes, actually this API-Key works!

Then you've set wrong API key data. Here is a useful tutorial on how to obtain a YouTUBE API3 key:

That API key also works for me!

Yet, the same long string like that they assigned to me doesn't work ..

I get a "Photo Upload" error using the one they assigned me?

When you're fetching data (before submit for save), thumbnail appears ok at the bottom of the form? If yes, then the script can't copy the thumbnail from YouTUBE to your site. One of the follow exists:
1.- Path is not correct
2.- /thumbs/ and thumbs/tmp/ (both or one of 2) has not permission to write. Some servers don't need 777. They work fine with 755. So try with 755

1. Path is what your forumpath.php program returned..

Set to /var/www/html/mywebsite/videoclub/thumbs

2. Tried \thumbs and \thumbs\tmp at both 777 and 755....

Still no thumbnails... I also notice that I imported only one video and I have two blank thumbnails showing, saying "no preview" ..

"If yes, then the script can't copy the thumbnail from YouTUBE to your site"...

Thumbnail DOES NOT appear at that point ... (see attached)

Also, I got my API Key by following your link in the main instruction set at top of page here..

Can you give me your installation url and a demo user account with permissions to post video?
