Vidiscript FAQ

How do I change the logo on my site?

Change the image located in: YourDomainDotCom/templates/Mainstream OR AfterDark/layout/skin1/logo.jpg OR whichever template you are using.

How do I Change \”Your Text Here\” ?
Behind the “watched now” you see the default text \”Your Text Here\” this can be changed. Open your /includes/latest.inc file and find this line,( around line 286). $widget = getWatchedNow(\’Your Text Here\’) ;
Simply change the “Your Text Here” to whatever you want.

    After I installed the vidiscript on my website. I click register, and got error said there isn’t my_website_folder/register, I’m wondering how to fix it? Should I create the register folder by myself? Where is the register php file?

        H Chris,

        I have the same problems as Vickqi.
        folders like : my_website/register or my_website/top_rated or most_viewed are NOT on the server after running the install.

        The only folders I have after I completed the installation are :

        - ajax
        - data
        - database
        - images
        - includes
        - js
        - misc
        - templates
        - uploads

        and in the folder UPLOADS I see …

        - ads
        - avatars
        - groupicons
        - thumbs

        There are NO files, just these folders.

        Cheers,
        Mike

    i want to add functionality like subscription module which allows user can see only those videos for which he/she subscribed for particular category.Through manage media functionality we can assign each uploaded videos to particular category(this is just for reference).

    • December 25, 2011 at 5:09 pm |

      there’s no such limit set by the software. check your php.ini for max_upload_limit and max_post_size.

    After installing the Script, I receive the message that all went well :)

    But, if I click on anything, I receive the message : File not Found

    For example, I click on UPLOAD.
    I receive the message : File not found
    When I look in the folder “UPLOAD” I see a couple of folders, but no file (like upload.php)
    I tried version 103 and 103a. Both the same result.

    Please … HELP! ;)

          • September 13, 2012 at 10:06 am |

            will try the adult ones. there’s veedeeo or something similar that does what you are looking for. they are also based on core of vidiscript.

            video conversion is failing for somereason. will look at it when i get a chance.

    Where can i find code for Videoplayer to insert a google addsense code, since admin menu only let me insert a photo for that, i mean Vidiscript player since the other ( flowplayer?) dont let me use watermark.

    • September 13, 2012 at 2:12 am |

      if flow player cant do it, vidiscript player cant either.

      • Arquimedes
        September 13, 2012 at 9:56 am |

        Vidiscript player can add watermark but no addsense and i saw flowpayer can add addsense but no watermark

        • September 13, 2012 at 10:01 am |

          yes this is how it is , you cant have both watermark and adsense at the moment.
          once i’m done with bulk uploads will have a look at this.

    well this is quite rushed, most stable version free of errors is on demo here. http://dev.vidiscript.co.uk/VidiScriptTest/

      i posted in the forum the facebook share tags, im getting crazy to try to get the thumbnail of the current video but i don’t know where is @.@ i know to do it manually but i need it dynamic for each video.

      • October 4, 2012 at 11:13 am |

        physical location of thumnails is /yourserver/webroot/vidiscript/uploads/thumbs/
        which thumbmail belongs to which video can be queried from media table ,see thumb column.

        $mediaId = 82 ; //get this dynamically this is available on the page
        $thumbnailFileName = SELECT `thumb` FROM `media` WHERE id =$mediaId ;
        $thumbnailFileName .= ".jpg"

        so url to share would be http://yourserver/vidiscript/uploads/thumbs/$thumbnailFileName

    Can you help ? I have over 3000 videos to upload that I own from Maritimeidol.com once this is fixed.
    Please advise
    Thanks

    • October 4, 2012 at 8:11 am |

      i’d suggest you wait till we release the new version , current version cannot does not support bulk conversion.
      it will take forever to manually upload 3000 videos.
      i’ve a bunch of issues to fix. once i get some time , i’ll fix up these problems and also stuff pointed out by Arquimedes.
      will let u guys know when that happesn.
      not found is usually because of bad .htaccess and disable warnings in your php settings and comment of one of the two repeated date_diff functions.

    • Arquimedes

    Help pliz! i expanded the thumb width with CSS but the image is so poor, where can i find the function that gets the thumbnail to give it more resolution, it looks horrible.

    • October 5, 2012 at 7:56 pm |

      it’s pretty simple , goto site settings , click on the media link, scroll down to the thumbs and change height and width.
      have a look at the demo , i just tried that . use firebug or something similar compare the natural size of previous videos and the one labelled thumbnail test.
      give it a shot and let me know. this means you’ll have to reprocess all videos.

  • Arquimedes
    October 5, 2012 at 10:05 pm |

    get thumbnails in options dont work
    resize in media dont work too, maybe that was one of the functions you fixes, if you can upload that archive would be nice

    • smokingfetishlover
      November 8, 2012 at 1:00 pm |

      Hi Arquimedes,

      If you know the url for thumbnail image of video your trying to embed then you can enter it in the image url on the page where you upload/add media.

      Here is the YouTube URL format that you will need in order to view and download a thumbnail from a YouTube video:
      http://img.youtube.com/vi/VIDEO_ID/#.jpg

      for example: http://img.youtube.com/vi/8JzvpP8H92Q/2.jpg

      Video ID is the ID of video you’re trying to embed and # (1,2, or 3) corresponds to one of the 3 thumbnails that YouTube automatically generates.
      For instance 2, is the default thumbnail, or the one that the owner ends up choosing for their video.

      Let me know if you have any other questions on that.

  • Arquimedes
    October 6, 2012 at 12:22 pm |

    How i can enlarge the preview for videos to match thumbnails size?

    I notice that vidiscript.co.uk is not the original creator of vidiscript but i see you doing lots of work supporting it, who created it and is there an official vidscript website where they support and update? What is the difference between original open source vidiscript and the version offered on this site? just curious…. THNX

    • November 5, 2012 at 9:43 am |

      it used to be available at vidiscript.com someone bought it and made a SAAS thing. it redirects to videosharingempire.
      we have the original open source copy available as well. and that’s the one which has been enhanced.
      all of us are about to end our employement contracts in the near future so we will be focusing like crazy on this.
