I already thought about a box where you just have to paste the youtube url and it creates the file automatically. I planned to add a second box where you have to add the file name (or alternatively use the video id as file name). But as the plugin is designed to work without fopen, I think it's not possible to automatically add the thumbnail. Of course the plugin could try to grab the thumbnail and just do noting if it doesn't work.
Let me think a little bit more about these options and give me some time :)

Bitte ;)

The two largest suppliers of my plugins are German... how's that possible :D

I am very satisfied about your plugin, and it works fine with the custom image.
It is a little work creating the text files, change the extension, and loading up for every file an image,
but the results may be seen. I upload for each audio also a custom image.
Advantage, all the other video providers can be done on the same way.
Once I was familar with "how to do it" i am very surprised with the result.
Here you have an example of my site:

Thank you very much, und eine gutte tag zugewuncht  :o

I have discoverd something special:

If you use keyword tags for your Albums and Files
If you enable the keywords manager in your general settings
If you enable in your album list settings show number of linked files

For an album with a keyword f.i. "Promise", the application gonna search in all your albums all files where the word "Promise" is used.
In the album list it gives you a review, there are 3 normal files and 7 linked files in this album.
In the thumnail file list view of that album: First you will see the original files and than the linked files from all other albums.
It gonna give you the linked youtube files and also the uploaded thumbnails for that files.
So your user can see everything about "Promise" from different albums in one same album.
So that story about linked files works also for this plugin remote videos.

I was surprised in a very positive sense, to view this, and hope you can use it, because it is a powerful tool.
I tested a lot of applications, but I cannot ignore for these special things, coppermine is the best  ;D

Here you can see an example, see the description of the last folder "Promise" and open it,
The 3 first files Promise 01,02,03 are original files, all the other files are linked files from other albums.

I'm upgrading to the latest 1.5.x and I'm curious about my current YouTube videos. Someone else asked here but I'm not sure if their reply back was that everything was fine or not.

Anyhow, currently I am using 1.4.x with this YouTube modification:
http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php/topic,37962.0.html

To be honest I love it, I don't have to do anything other then post the URL and it does the thumbnail for me. I wish you could somehow do the same thing with this.

Anyhow, I'm curious if my YouTube videos will still work (with thumbs and all) when I switch over to the newer version, or am I going to have to add them again again - thus taking a LONG time to fix & having to make thumbnails for each and having views back at 0

It's already on my to-do list:

Give me some time to add and test this feature.

Just upload it like any other file you upload in Coppermine (with the flash uploader, the upload form or via batch-add).

You have to rename the file before you upload it. You have to insert

With this plugin you can 'upload' videos from Youtube and other video file hosters to your website.

Please find the button for the config page on the plugin manager. There you can enable/disable the different video hosters.

Usage:
1. Create a text file and insert the permalink or url from the browser address bar
2. Rename the text file to <filename>.<provider>
3. Upload the file like a normal video file
4. Optional: upload a thumbnail for your video by using this plugin

You have to replace the token with something like
Quotemy_video.youtube
I just updated the instructions in the initial post.
