My videos app is working great and I'm really happy with everything apart from the size of the thumbnail created in the discussion topic?

I assume you have ftp access to your files? I can probably give you a patch to modify this until a future update adds this.

We use this mainly for uploaded video and it is unfortunate that it doesn't automatically create a thumbnail for the video using a screenncap.  That said is there a way to disable the option to upload a media poster?  Most of our users think that is a thumbnail and are constantly uploading thumbnails to media posters which makes the admins have to go back and create them.

You can disable this in the group permissions.

Couple of things having installed, used, and really liking this plug in

1) All my posts made in forums automatically are made by random members and not the member I designated in the admin CP? That causes great confusion as members post 'I didn't post that!' etc

2) It would be great for an embed in forums instead of a thumbnail

1) For the rss import?

2) There is an %EMBED% quick tag you can use in the video topic instead of the thumbnail.

@Michael.J: Can you please add a way for imports to bypass the topic creation, meaning that we can disable them from being created.

If a topic hasn't been generated, via the video page - could it be generated by someone with moderation powers?

I plan to import videos from the community and, it would mean loads of discussions are automatically generated. Some will be pointless, so disabling it would be wise but at least I can click to generate a discussion from the front if I so wish.

Until I add a setting for this, I could probably provide a file edit that skips topic creation for rss imports if you want?

When i contact IPS, they say "contact plugin support" 😅

Were you able to resolve this?

I've been a longtime user of Videos. And the renewal price is $20 per year. But when I go to renew it, I only get the option to buy it again at $45 per year.

I don't really have that kind of control over the marketplace. So you will need to contact them to see why you can't renew. If they can't help, I'll process this manually via Paypal if you would like.

Yes, please.

Apologise for being a pain whilst you're busy, but I would appreciate this edit as I can manually add videos I want to discuss. 🙂

Last time I had upgraded an old community and I'd like also to update your video app, but when I try to update over the marketplace I run into this error:

How I could upgrade this, without loosing all content?

Hi @Michael.J

Google SEO massive issue :

Google is indexing thousands of urls like /videos/list-all/?listType=list&csrfKey=d2aff8dd416cd4c766905af3279ba8de

 

solution ; add a canonical to /videos/list-all/

Okay, I got the RSS feed working like this:

	echo('<media:group><media:content url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=');
	echo($vid);
	echo('" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="640" height="390"/>');
	echo('<media:thumbnail url="https://i4.ytimg.com/vi/'.$vid.'/hqdefault.jpg" width="480" height="360"/>');
	echo('</media:group>');

The videos per page setting is stuck at 25, and does not seem to obey either the category or global setting for this value.

--Edit

This was caused by another plugin.

Hi @Michael.J

We found another bug :

when translating Videos to other languages, there some strings that can't be translated on the dropdown :

"Sort by"

"Video title"

"Date added"

"Views"

Your app wont take ACP translations into account for those strings

Can you fix this ? thank you

Thanks for reporting, noted bug for next update.

I just updated to the latest 4.5 Update and I can't install, I get the "Something went wrong. Please try again."

If updating through the ips marketplace, you'll need to contact IPS regarding this error. I don't have much control over the marketplace updates.

Bug report noted, thank you.

It seems that's a private video? If so, then it can't really be added as there is no oEmbed data to generate the video.

I am seeing a number of bugs but the application is nice to have.

Can you please report them here - https://www.devfuse.com/forums/bugs/videos/

Or list them here so I can fix them in a future update. With IPB 4.5 updates nearly done, I will be able to start on bug fixes again.

Since I paid for the custom development/creation of "Topic Attach Thumbnails" by any chance could you send me an updated version that works with 4.5? I see it on the marketplace but I haven't been able to get in touch via PMs. Thanks.

Done.

Automated videos are now showing as they're posted by a guest on the 'who replied last' and inside the topic. It does show the right username on the forum index page but across to the right it does not with the who replied last.

The topics from rss imported videos? If you edit the video as an admin, does it correct the last post info?

Sorry, I'll check a bit later. I haven't been on as much since I noticed this issue.

Sorry, @Michael.J - I have just edited one of the topics hat appeared as a 'guest' and yes, if I edit the topic as an admin it does correct itself.

Hope this helps.

Not private of course but I have come to know it is a general problem IPS is trying to handle with Facebook embeds.

On another note, is there a way to show videos posted in Videos as embedded rich media in Activity streams instead of plain text?
