To update this mod for the new API, try the following:

You don't need to sign up for any key with this new API.

Hi Nibbler,

i have made these changes since the change you suggested in the first post didn't work for me coz od the new API..

i was able to get the thumbnail of the vedio but i'm recieving the following error:

Error message
1. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2EFMG_oQ5lE          Failed to find video


What am i doing wrong?

Thanks in advance

Hello there,

How can I update the new youtube API using the curl version of this great mod?


Thanks a lot in advance.

[shaney]

I am looking for the latest code to add youtube into coppermine, I can see there has been a lot of hard work getting this to work. I have looked throught the pages but i am a little confused as to what code to use as there have been updates/improvments to the original code. Could some nice person please post the latest code that needs to be changed here or point me in the right direction......Many thanks

I am using latest PHP

[Joachim Müller]

The word "latest" exists very often in your posting, but means absolutely nothing. What's "latest" for you? Read up board rules as well.

[Timos-Welt]

This great mod will now (hopefully) work together with the latest beta version of EnlargeIt! - see here:
http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php/topic,53290.msg274490.html#msg274490

Version 2.12 of EnlargeIt! is still beta, so testers are very welcome. The support of this mod is the only change from version 2.11.

Hello,
I have made the code changes very carefully and I have a different issue than most other users.  Keep in mind that I have made some modifications to the bridge and other modifications to the theme, but I can't see how any would affect this youtube mod.

All I get when I try to upload a youtube video is a message saying "0 files uploaded sucessfully".  No other errors whatsoever.  url_fopen is on and regular photos can be uploaded by using URLs

I turned on debug mode and see this, but again, I doubt it is helpful:

/upload.php
Notice line 2086: Undefined variable: escrow_array
Notice line 2087: Undefined variable: file_failure_array
Notice line 2088: Undefined variable: URI_failure_array
Notice line 2089: Undefined variable: zip_failure_array
Notice line 2142: Undefined variable: YT_error_count

What are the possible problems that could cause just the 0 files uploaded sucessfully message without other errors?  TIA

[Nibbler]

You probably didn't edit upload.php correctly.

[Timos-Welt]

Hi Nibbler,

two proposals and a question, if you can find the time:

1)
Could you consolidate the first posting of this thread with this one? It's impossible to use the old API for new people because you cannot get a dev API ID from YouTube at all anymore. The new version is in fact easier because no ID is needed. The current first posting is simply unusable.

2)
YouTube in the meantime uses 480x385px for their flash movie; I recommend to change this in the first posting as well.

3)
I'm surely no CPG expert, so a question: Do you think it would be possible to implement the changes you did to upload.php with a plugin? Would be interesting to include this in EnlargeIt!.

TIA!
Timo

You probably didn't edit upload.php correctly.

I was quite careful in editting it.  I will go back and take another close look.  Do you or does coppermine offer any sort of paid support where I could have you login and try to get it working for me?  It is an important project I am working on.  Please let me know.

[Joachim Müller]

There's a paid support board where you can start a thread (please review the sticky thread there first), asking for freelancers to take the job. The coppermine staff (dev team members) usually don't perform jobs there, so there is not actual paid support by the coppermine dev team members.

Is it possible with this mod to display YouTube Playlists, as for example http://uk.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=AF6146BA8E485501&playnext=1 ?

[duerre]

Hello!

This MOD is really great and working fine but I have a little problem.

I have a media gallery with both videos and pictures.

Now that I have install this MOD, intermediate image (normal_) won't display for the pictures.
On the http://mysite.com/coppermine/displayimage.php?album=lastup&cat=0&pos=0, I only have a full sized images but no normal_xxx.jpg file.
I checked on the admin panel, intermediate pictures are on and normal_xxx.jg files have been created and are on the server.

I think it may have something with the 'elseif (isset($image_size['reduced'])) {' code in theme.php but I don't know much about .php and can't understand what to do alone.

Thanks by advance.

URI Error message
1. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=JH5wEEFfer0

Can anyone help?

Thankyou Nibbler for this very handy mod. I regret not installing this much earlier.

I'm not a programmer so there is nothing I can contribute code-wise, but I just merged your original instructions with the update on page 15, so as to ease any confusions when installing this.

This mod allows you to embed Youtube videos in your Coppermine gallery. A new section appears on the upload page where you enter the URL of the video. Coppermine will use the video thumbnail and title/caption/keywords from Youtube when adding the video.


Demo: http://gelipo.com/members/Nibbler/pictures/61993

To use this mod you will need some extra things:

• Youtube dev API ID (http://www.youtube.com/dev then http://www.youtube.com/my_profile_dev)
• PHP URL fopen enabled
• Regular URI uploads need to be working correctly, right permissons etc.

Files to be changed: upload.php, theme.php

upload.php, add this code near the top of the file after the comments (you can skip this step if you have PHP5)

Code Select Expand


if (!function_exists('file_put_contents')) {
function file_put_contents($n,$d) {
$f=@fopen($n,"w");

fclose($f);
return true;

If you get this message when you upload:

then your dev_id is probably wrong.

I've realised a problem with this mod, but I'm not sure if it's isolated to my theme. I've read through the thread, although it was mentioned by another user, he didn't follow it up and hence no solution was ever given.

I'm using the hardwired theme. This mod works like a charm displaying youtube hosted media, but after I applied the changes to theme.php, I can no longer play the windows media files hosted on my own site. I've tried the wmv/wma/asf ... all theses files that previously played doesn't work anymore. The rm files still played, so I think it's a problem with how the windows media player works after the youtube mod is installed. When I delete the changes to theme.php, then these files work again (youtube doesn't).

The hardwired theme doesn't orginally have the function theme_html_picture() part, so, as instructed I copied it from the sample theme. I'm not sure if I copied too much or too less.

I have attached my ammended theme.php as a text file here, would anyone be able to help me see whether there is any problems with this? And whether you can suggest any solutions?

[Nibbler]

There's a bug in the sample theme. In your theme.php find

'clsid' => 'classid="clsid:6BF52A52-394A-11d3-B153-00C04F79FAA6" ',

@Nibbler: I can see that you fixed that for cpg1.4.x in SVN, but the original line resides in cpg1.5.x as well (both sample theme and themes.inc.php). Should the same fix be applied there as well?

[Nibbler]

Committed there too.
