Where do I go to enter the API username/password for Seven.com and MyVideo.com if I already installed your mod and closed the window? I tried to reinstall but each time I do the page that is supposed to come up for me to enter this information never does. Have to do it manually? If so, where?

Here is a list of video sites with active APIs

Right now I can't get Metacafe to work, every thing else installed fine.

Will this mod ever have the ability to upload videos as well? I own a longtail video player license and would like to use it.

Ok guys, wondering if you can help me out. Where can i find the xmls that play the videos? because i mean theres none on the list from where i've added the mod, and as a result nothing plays... thanks
