can i add videos on the welcome page (index page)

if so how?

Sem what you want to do? you mean to say that you want to create your custom index page. If so you need to activate custom index plugin.

Make changes in it and embed your video in it.

add line in custom index:

if(elgg_is_logged_in())

{

        forward('/dashboard'); //or forward('//activity'); as you want

}

sem your beta 2 version is wonderful!
is there a possibility to view the video directly into my videos widgets?
like embedvideo 1.8.

thank you very much!

is it possible to make the video auto start?

of course --
just goto the 'watch' folder for each video host
and find the code where the autoPlay option needs to go ;)
and code that parm in there.

If I change the plugin am I going to loose all the video links I made with the previous beta. In that case should I wait for the final release?

@sem - nice work. I've been messing around with izap-video but really don't like having to register for an api key, nor my site sending information to theirs.

Are you going to use FFMPEG for the upload script? Any closer on fnishing an upload script?
I'm just getting familiar with Elgg, but I've worked with ffmpeg and video uploads if you need some help.

Well, I tried a URL from Youtube and also from my Website and neither one was valid.

Can you please post a sample of what the URL should look like?

Thanx.

@bigboi2 - When I tried it, I simply copy and pasted a url from YouTube. It worked. I think it may depend on YouTube itself.

@rbuhn It's not planed for the moment to add upload support, but if you want to add it, fork the repository and begin working in it!

@zirgit, Data model is not going to change in the final release. You can use beta 2 with no worries ;)

any help for my request??

Is possible to make it??

Thanks! 

Sem, this plugin is great!

Something I missed is the possibility to add a description when I add an video and after added I can't change video url. (I had to delete a video from my youtube account and I was unnable to change video url, so I had to delete it).

Thanks!

any helps??

yea it doesnt like the 'shared' URL version from YouTube so you have to cut and paste the link from your browser,

FYI could do with a way to add an already posted video into a Group on Elgg 1.8 too.

any help to make te content directly playable on the widget menu??
thanks! 

Sometimes, the pictures stored at 'files' are not displaying.  After a lot of days, I discovered that restart the plugin solve that situation.

Could you, please, check it!

thx

The possibility to add descriptions for the videos and for the list should be very useful.

Both *title & *description are actually defined inside in the PlugIn ;-) the fields are just not ;-( being used /displayed/ stored.. Have a look inside the code for start.php and edit.php ;-oO you'll find them there...! Just a little bit of code tweaking will bring them out into the open...

@Nudeler2 Title and description is taken automatically from the video rss. If you edit the video later, you can put a customized title and description.

Oops badd wording - - I shudda qualified - at Add New Video time they are not shown on form - b/c as Sem sez.

Ok, thanks, all. Didn't know that. How could I ? ;D

The language file, I see. Next I first look into the language file.

WOW, this is better than I thought...I use this now...

I want to test it on my Elgg-Site, but if i click on "safe" i se a new blue window with the message "String could not be parsed as XML". Can anybody help, fast !!
