Is this necessary or simply to mirror what you have on your setup?

This just means that I have to upload via FTP and overwrite the previous ones, right?

How do I do this?

So by default, categories are level 0, and video_catbit_small_sub prints out 0 times. If you set a category to level 2, then the contents of video_catbit_small_sub will print out 2 times before it displays the category link. You can see an example of how this works here: http://www.8wayrun.com/video.php
This is the first step in the right direction. But, we're not there yet.

Do we have to change any 'settings' to have this showing? If so, where do we change them?

This is a great feature, by the way!

I tried to figure out how to do it from the display order screen; but as I said, I dont know much about VB plugins; so i couldn't figure it out.
Does this answer my question from above?

So now the "yesno" goes straight to the 1 or 0.
Is this something that happens 'behind the scenes' or do we have to do the settings ourselves?

Now the HD tag will work for ANY high definition hosting service, as long as "HD" is in the $hostername (its inside the XML for the video-hoster).
So, we no longer have to add the "fmt=22&" to the videos?

Once the sub-categories work as they should and the tagging is added, that would make things complete :up:

No, just a mirror of what I have...

You need to upload via FTP AND overwrite the templates in the mod. Just go to your AdminCP > Manager Hoster > Import video-hoster. Import both youtube files and they will automatically overwrite your old ones.

In your style manager, simply select each video template you've edited and hit the "revert" button.

Its behind the scenes, nothing you have to do.

You still need to differentiate the difference between HD and SD video; what this does is make it easy to define more than just youtubeHD as an HD video source.

I have however, changed the "fmt=22&" thing... you no longer do it that way... isntead, just change the HTTP in your link to HDEF... easier this way.

So http://wwww.youtube.com/watch?v=12345 becomes hdef://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12345

Well, I finally did the updates this morning, but the contributer video pages aren't there. At least, the links which are supposed to go there (within the Top Contributers section) are still pointing to the public profiles.

Everything else seems to be working so far.

Any tips on what I haven't done which has not changed the actual links from pointing to the right pages?
