Hi @onlyME

Feature request, would you consider adding the ability for thumbnails to be automatically downloaded and set via YouTube API ?

https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/thumbnails

The add-on I used in XenForo had this feature, and also automatically downloaded the video duration/description (but you had to register for an Web Application API token in Google Developers Console)

I think it would be a very advanced feature but maybe others would find it useful too?

No, it's so complex and slow. The current thumbnail is fast without sending request to youtube api.

I don't understand. Do you mean adding uploading Featured Image Form for livestreams?

yes, but the ability to have that uploaded image stay no matter what, stay on even if the stream is not live

So if the stream is not live you see the still image that was uploaded by the admin or if possible the member who posted the stream

I will consider your idea.

I know you're super busy and updating files isn't your whole life, lol

But any updates coming out for this soon?

No, I don't get any bug report.

[Fierce God]

lol, oh ok

Didn't know that bug reports is what gets updates or add ons, but ok

[Fierce God]

Well....

Even though you haven't received any "Bug Reports" can you at least think about putting in the add on of the thumbnail for Live Streams? for at least the Owner to be able to do this on certain ones of our Pick

The livestream should get the live screenshot. When you promote a video, you can select its thumbnail or upload new thumbnail manually

[Fierce God]

i know this,

I'm talking about on the stand still, to cover up the ugly picture of purple and black offline pic

When you're on these actual sites, you don't see the those purple or black offline pics, you see the person's added thumbnail

i'm just wondering if you could the option like you have for the regular videos, that way when selected streams are offline, it shows a selected thumbnail

The reason i'm asking this, is because i have a custom membership for featured live streams, that means that the stream is pinned (you don't have a regular widget for featured streams...just the slider) so those streams are offline sometimes, i would like to put a thumbnail there so it looks good alongside the streams that are showing live

here's a screenshot

Do you mean the default offline picture?

[Fierce God]

yes, if that's what the purple and black pic is

it would be so good to be able to override that 

but the option to upload thumbs for streams goes away when you use the slider to post live stream

Thank you

No matter what options I try, I can't get the newest videos to show in the widget on my forum index page.  Any idea what I am doing wrong?

I need time for other customers ideas, reports. And I always give priority to fix bugs. About new features you need to wait, I will do if they are necessary. 

In your case, you no need to wait, you can use 'Customizable Video Feed' block. After placing it on site, click Edit button, set 'Number to show' = 1, 'Block theme' = 'Thumbnail with Title'. Save.  Then go to ACP > Customization > Themes > click </> to edit your theme > videobox > front > widgets > Videos

Find

<div class="esnList_item" {{if $orientation=='vertical'}}style="width: 33.33% !important;"{{endif}}>

Replace by

<div class="esnList_item" {{if $orientation=='vertical'}}style="width: {{if count($videos)==1}}100%{{else}}33.33%{{endif}} !important;"{{endif}}>

Save and done.

how to do that in new videobox version if i can't find in file Videos text ? - 

<div class="esnList_item" {{if $orientation=='vertical'}}style="width: 33.33% !important;"{{endif}}>

@Aleksandrs Davids Sidurins the 2.x version uses different template codes for columns layout so you can not use the old method. But I don't remember what you want to do.

You can make one block like you see on screen, in right side with big windows?

If you only show 1 video, find 

<div class='ipsGrid_span1 ipsSpacer_bottom vbItem'>

Replace by

<div class='ipsGrid_span1 ipsSpacer_bottom vbItem' {{if count( $videos ) == 1}}style='width: 100% !important;'{{endif}}>

@onlyME 

I had a member do something crazy.....

They accidently hit the X button on the url field to copy/paste youtube videos

i can't see any way to re enable it for them........the field still shows on all other members post when wanting to add a video....just not this one persons

Do you know of a way to put this field back up for this one member?

 

then after this is fixed(if possible) can you tell me what setting i need to enable so reg members can't see that X to take off the field

I don understand this issue. The form does not have setting to remember closinh or opening. Try to clear the browser cache and refresh page.

They did....and i logged into their account, and its not there

i cleared and restarted mine, still no there

they are the ONLY ones who don't see this, all other members can see that field
