Title: Remote videos for cpg1.5.x
Post by: Αndré on June 18, 2009, 05:03:20 pm
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 (e.g. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6B26asyGKDo)
2. Rename the text file to <filename>.<provider> (e.g. my_video.youtube)
3. Upload the text file to your Coppermine gallery (use the upload form or the batch-add feature)
4. Optional: upload a thumbnail for your video by using this plugin (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php/topic,60272.0.html)

Nice one ;D. And having a plugin will reduce the amount of support from people who struggle with the Youtube mod.

What other providors do you have in mind?

I don't really use video in coppermine on my windsurfing site as the joomla integration combined with this plugin linked to below takes care of all my media needs. I've linked the plugin as it has a good list of other providors and their settings.

This is just an improved plugin version of my cpg1.4.x mod (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php/topic,58222.0.html)  8)

I use Youtube for hosting too large video files (file size limit on my free webhost) and I don't know which other popular video websites exists. The only one I know is from Germany: www.myvideo.de

If a user want to have support for another provider, I will add it to the plugin and release a new version.

I don't know which other popular video websites exists.
It probably the same as "I don't know which other popular search engine exists."  :) Of course that there are others outthere, but Youtube (or Google in my example) has more than 90% of visitors worldwide. It's not a must, but if you want to, you could take a look at this list: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/embedded-video-with-link/ (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/embedded-video-with-link/)

My suggestion would be only these ones:


One that had a good past was dailymotion, not so popular nowadays.

Despite this critics, I love this plugin!

Cheers,

There may be some who will find it usefull to embedd videos from adult video sites like youporn. I know that this is the armpit of the internet and I could understand if you would not want to look into this. As I said before, I wouldn't use the plugin anway, as videos are beyond scope on my personal coppermine-driven sites, so this is just a suggestion what others might find usefull.
Not sure about all those sites - do all of them have an API? Do they want others to embedd their content? There is an aspect to this in legal terms as well.
Title: Re: Embed external videos for cpg1.5.x
Post by: Αndré on June 19, 2009, 09:38:48 am
I don't use any API. I just use the embed code these hosters provide to the public - so they want others to embed their content :)

I currently add support for the providers you told me.

I'd be interessted in such an article, but couldn't spot it. Could you please post a deep link to it?

@Andre: on Fritz's page there is a list of video services supported by his tool (http://allvideos.fritz-elfert.de/remote-content.html):

So you could conclude that it's a list of popular services that probably fall into the category "can be used with remote players".

I need to increase the size of the file type extension during plugin installation:
Code: [Select]
ALTER TABLE {$CONFIG['TABLE_FILETYPES']} MODIFY extension CHAR(10)
Can this cause some unintended behavior to the rest of the gallery?
Title: Re: Embed external videos for cpg1.5.x
Post by: phill104 on June 19, 2009, 01:28:05 pm
It was a while back when I first started using the plugin that I saw the legal page but I cannot find it right now. It may have been on on of the othe branches of this plugin as there are a number borrowing the code.

The gist of it is that it all depends on whether it can be considered "re-broadcasting". In the UK for instance it is illegal to rebroadcast without consent but in the case of embedding you are not the one liable but the host site is. There have been cases in the UK where lawyers have sent out letters asking poeple to withdraw such content and people usually abide. There has not yet been a case of this taken to court in the UK as both sides are worried it would set a legal precedent which depending on which way it went could damage either side. In Turkey for however, you are considered the one liable and can be persued. So it depends on where you are.

Another worrying issue is that of privacy. By viewing an embedded video you are still sending certain information back to for example youtube, it is just the way a browser works. But you as a user have not visited youtube but another site that happened to embed a youtube video. Therefore you did not have a choice whether to have that information sent to them. There are currently legal wrangles going on accross the globe regarding this to find out who is ultimately responsible and whether this is an invasion of privacy.

So having said all that I suggest you put a disclaimer/warning somewhere in the plugin stating some of the above information.

I'm not sure. I suggest asking this question on the dev board for cpg1.5.x coding and to suggest increasing the size in the first place (not only for the plugin, but generally for the entire cpg1.5.x install).

I have tried uploading a privat video, which works fine if you use the youtube URL a normal video has, but if you try to upload the "Limited-access URL" youtube offers I get this error:

Error: invalid video id

I dont make my videos (of the kids for my family to see) available to everybody, so it would be useful if this type of youtube URLs were supported.

Please try to upload that file with the simple upload form (http upload). Problem seems not to be related to this plugin, but to your Coppermine setup. Maybe it helps to write the file extension in lower case.

Thanks for your contribution.

If you click on a limited access url (e.g. http://www.youtube.com/watch_private?v=abcdefghijk&sharing_token=N5RZKiA4K3cNuHELreQkeA) you will automatically redirected to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abcdefghijk. It's not possible to embed private videos via limited access url. Hm, it's technically possible, but only registered YouTube users which have access to that video can view it.

Changelog of version 1.7:

Very nice

I was reading through the example codes for cpg1.4 to do this and it was making my head spin
upgraded to 1.5 and installed this, all working sweet

I had a look in the codebase.php file most of it seems to make sense
just wondered if anyone can tell me how to find the info to add in more sites?

motionbox and photobucket to be exact

thanks

Title: Re: Remote videos for cpg1.5.x
Post by: Αndré on May 26, 2010, 11:28:00 am
You need an account for motionbox.com - I neither have one nor want to register myself.

It's not possible to derive the embed path from the website url at photobucket.com. You need to enter that path manually, which isn't fool-proof and therefore beyond the scope of this plugin. Of course you can add
Code: [Select]
        case 'photobucket':
            $params = array(
                'search_pattern' => '/(.*)/',
                'default_width'  => 600,
                'default_height' => 361,
                'player'         => 'http://static.photobucket.com/player.swf',
                'player_height'  => 0,
            );
            return remote_videos_html_replace($params, $pic_html);
        break;
to codebase.php. But that's only recommended if you are the only person who can upload files to your gallery.

Version 1.8 fixes a small issue on the plugin config page. If a 'remote video file extension' is the first entry in the allowed movie types list, the checkbox is now set correctly.

This works like a charm. Thank you.

I was a bit confused as to how to configure it, but that's now sorted.
Still, uploading a text file may be a fiddle for non-tech users. Perhaps a form with inputs for an url and a dropdown for video provider would be useful - when sent, this creates the textfile automatically. Just a thought.

I've tried your plugin.

Pro:
no modding -> no fuss with updates

Contra:
need to create and upload a text-file
need to create and upload a thumbnail

The mod had as pro that you could just put the URL in an text-field and that the thumbnail was automatically generated.

If you can add the last two contra's to pro's you've got a wonderfull plugin.
Everybody should than be able to add YouTube-movies ;)

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 :)

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:

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

I made a text file to the youtube video how do i change the name? When i click on the photo it just opens a browser with the code
http://www.theparsleys.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=6&pid=12#top_display_media
i was trying to follow the instructions from andre.
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

With your file browser.

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
the permalink or url from the browser address bar
of the video.

 can you give me more inf as you saying

2. Rename the text file to <filename>.<provider>

i cant save  text file to <filename>.<provider>

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 (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php/topic,60272.0.html)

I do something wrong using this plugin and I hope you can help me!

My video is on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1zpS0ins0A&feature=feedu (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1zpS0ins0A&feature=feedu)).
I created the textfile Joyride.youtube (including exactly the link) and uploaded it via http-upload.
I also uploaded a thumbnail for my video using the plugin Custom Thumbnail for cpg1.5.x (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php/topic,60272.0.html (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php/topic,60272.0.html))

When I watch my gallery (Videos in www.photo66.at (http://www.photo66.at)) I can see the thumbnail for the video, but when I click on it, a new browser window opens showing the text http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1zpS0ins0A&feature=feedu (that's the link to my YouTube video) instead of starting the video.

Can you tell me what I did wrong?

Thx
Thomas

This plugin just uses the functionality provided by the video hosting sites. I have no personal interest in exploring all available websites if they provide a HTML5 player. So if you need that support, please have a look at those websites yourself and suggest their HTML5 codes.

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

I think it has something to do with the enabling. When I hit the "remote videos" button on the plugin managing site I get redirected to the start page.
Nothing is happening. No adding of new file types or sth like that.
I tried to add "youtube" as a new video file type under settings - file settings, but didnt work either.

tried to reinstall the plugin, but didnt work either.

Any advice?

Thank you André for the mod

Really like how when the video is enlarged the user is not directed to You Tube.

So the uploading side does not look like "the poor cousin" to other gallery platforms is it possible please for you to code into the mod
as others have suggested where the user can simply just paste in the video hosts URL ?

I know of open source code that maybe of use to you to help implement where you can just paste in the URL ?

Obviously I am requesting this cause I want my gallery to be easy for our users to use, but obviously its going to really help to future proof the demand for Coppermine .....

I still don't know where to place the field. Do you have any suggestions? If not, my idea is to add a button either to the menu or directly on the upload pages, which redirects you to a separate upload form where you can select the album and paste the URL.

I'm currently working on an Youtube URL user upload plugin which will work with this plugin Remote videos for cpg1.5.
I have added a third upload form in addition to swf and single file uploads.
Also I have made a conversion tool for the old Youtube hack for cpg1.4 by Nibbler so Coppermine sites still on cpg1.4 can upgrade and keep their Youtube links.

To make this plugin installable by anybody I want a new hook in db_input.php to process "uploads" which are not file uploads.
My suggestion for a new hook is like this in the last lines of db_input.php:
Quote
default:
    if(CPGPluginAPI::action('upload_process',$event)) break;

    // Unknown event
    if ($CONFIG['log_mode'] != 0) {
            log_write('Denied privileged access to db_input.php (unknown event) for user '.$USER_DATA['user_name'].' at ' . $hdr_ip, CPG_SECURITY_LOG);
    }
    cpg_die(CRITICAL_ERROR, $lang_errors['param_missing'], __FILE__, __LINE__);
}

?>

OK... your .youtube file looks correct - containing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DOBiTKD2a-c which properly plays on youtube...
I loaded the same file to my sandbox and it played fine...

I overrode your sites theme - adding &theme=curve to the url:
http://rescue.nsc.ee/displayimage.php?album=15&pid=437&theme=curve#top_display_media (http://rescue.nsc.ee/displayimage.php?album=15&pid=437&theme=curve#top_display_media)
and the video played fine...
Something in your theme may be altering the code generating for the imbedded flash?

The page source for the flash object on your site appears as:
Code: [Select]
<object id="SWFlash"  classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="320" height="285"><param name="autostart" value="true" /><param name="src" value="albums/userpics/10001/video.youtube" /><embed width="320" height="285" src="albums/userpics/10001/video.youtube" autostart="true" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" ></embed></object><br />

and on my site - and yours with theme set to curve:
Code: [Select]
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="640" height="385" data="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/DOBiTKD2a-c"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/DOBiTKD2a-c" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /></object><br />

Not sure what accounts for the difference - but maybe will point you in the right direction...

Perhaps one of the other devs can assist when they are available... Others have works with themes and the theme engine much more than me...

As it seems to be a theme issue, please don't clutter any plugin threads, but start a new thread in the themes board describing your issue. Thanks.

I'd just like to say this plugin is excellent. I installed it this evening along with the custom thumbnail plugin & it works very well.

Thanks.

When I posted yesterday about it working well, I had not tried using Chrome. It doesn't appear to work, nothing appears where the intermediate image should be.

Firefox and Internet Explorer work as expected.

I have done a search about embedding videos in Chrome and other people seem to have problems as well. Is it Chrome at fault?

Works as expected for me with Chrome 33.
Thanks for checking Andre.

I'd better investigate further, mine is also version 33. Just checked "about" and it updated to:-
"Version 33.0.1750.154 m Google Chrome is up to date."

Suppose this is what happens when you don't regularly use a certain browser and it isn't the latest version!!

Pleased to say it works for me now.

Is possible to add just embed codes? I mean... if I want to add a video from other host, can I just somehow add the embed code in the file and add it to the gallery? Thanks.

Rather than having to return to here for USAGE, I found it helpful to include the 3 steps in the configuration file $description.

Code: [Select]
$description = 'Upload videos from video file hosters to your gallery (YouTube, Google, Yahoo!, ...)<br />
USAGE:<br />
1. Create a text file and insert the permalink or url from the browser address bar (e.g. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6B26asyGKDo)<br />
2. Rename the text file to &lt;filename&gt;.&lt;provider&gt; (e.g. my_video.youtube)<br />
3. Upload the text file to your Coppermine gallery (use the upload form or the batch-add feature)';

That's currently not supported. Of course it could be added by adjusting the regular expressions the plugin uses to detect the video ID (and probably other needed information). Feel free to adjust the plugin and share it with the community. Maybe a leading and trailing
Code: [Select]
.*will already work, but that really depends on the embed code of the respective video hosters.

Attached is a beta version. It includes some unreleased changes I committed over a year ago (:o), Vine support (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php/topic,77788.msg377063.html#msg377063) added by ISANexusDev (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?action=profile;u=166395) and some general code and feature improvement of both contributions.

Main things to test:
- YouTube: HTTP and HTTPS support of short (youtu.be) and long (youtube.com) domain - both with and without leading "www" sub-domain
- Vimeo: HTTP and HTTPS support
- Vine: everything (HTTP and HTTPS support & new config options)

Reviewed the code: It looks shinny for me.
Tested many Youtube/Vimeo/Vine for https | http  + with or without www subdomain + youtube.com | youtu.be combinations, and all were working correctly.

Thank you!

Hey

I am facing a problem, that the video plugin is not working anymore since a day or so. The video link is re-directed from
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxx
to
https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/watch?v=xxx

It WOULD work, if it would be redirected to
https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/watch/v/xxx
or the classic initial link above...

Thanks for fixing
Daniel

I noticed on my private gallery that all YouTube videos stopped to work. I guess you're facing the same problem, but I don't know what you mean with "redirect" in your explanation.

I just had a look at the embed code YouTube currently provides. It obviously changed to iframe. I'll perform some tests as soon as possible.

<iframe src="http://vk.com/video_ext.php?oid=164681391&id=162151261&hash=45dcf38e51031b2f" width="607" height="360" frameborder="0"></iframe>but every method i tried brings up  Error: invalid video id

Any ideas?

Please post more details. What exactly have you tried?

I didn't keep all the tests but this was the last one i tried, I don't know coding and tried to manipulate existing ones but it didn't work as the VK embed code uses 3 different IDs

Code: [Select]


        case 'vk':

            $params = array(

                'search_pattern' => '/http:\/\/(?:www\.)?vk\.com\/\?video_ext.php?oid=([A-Za-z0-9]+)&id=([A-Za-z0-9]+)&hash=([A-Za-z0-9]+)/',

                'default_width'  => 640,

                'default_height' => 480,

                'player'         => 'http://vk.com/video_ext.php?oid={MATCH_1}&id={MATCH_2}&hash={MATCH_3}',

                'player_height'  => 0,

            );

            return remote_videos_html_replace($params, $pic_html);

        break;



/*

        case '':

            $params = array(

                'search_pattern' => '',

                'default_width'  => ,

                'default_height' => ,

                'player'         => '{MATCH_1}',

                'player_height'  => ,

            );

            return remote_videos_html_replace($params, $pic_html);

        break;

This is the embed code VK gives
Code: [Select]
<iframe src="http://vk.com/video_ext.php?oid=164681391&id=162151261&hash=45dcf38e51031b2f" width="607" height="360" frameborder="0"></iframe>So theoretically just need to know how to get the oid, id and hash values
Title: Re: Remote videos for cpg1.5.x
Post by: Αndré on August 07, 2015, 01:15:27 pm
Code: [Select]
'search_pattern' => '/http:\/\/(?:www\.)?vk\.com\/video_ext\.php\?oid=([A-Za-z0-9]+)&id=([A-Za-z0-9]+)&hash=([A-Za-z0-9]+)/',removes the invalid video ID message.

Unfortunately the vk.com player needs some more parameters to play the video:
Code: [Select]
<param name="flashvars" value="uid=164681391&amp;vid=162151261&amp;oid=164681391&amp;host=http://cs505420v4.vk.me/&amp;vtag=3db79b5d6d&amp;ltag=l_6b169856&amp;vkid=162151261&amp;md_title=%26lt%3Biframe+src%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fvk.com%2Fvideo_ext.php%3Foid%3D7324586%26id%3D162001297%26hash%3Db7d57fd756ecf0d3%26sd%22+width%3D%26quot&amp;md_author=Elena+Rotsel&amp;author_id=164681391&amp;author_href=/id164681391&amp;hd=0&amp;no_flv=1&amp;hd_def=0&amp;dbg_on=0&amp;t=0&amp;duration=63&amp;thumb=http://cs505420.vk.me/u164681391/video/l_6b169856.jpg&amp;hash=6b3a8670eb0ed9db33fef5cd5dc3487f&amp;hash2=45dcf38e51031b2f&amp;angle=0&amp;img_angle=0&amp;repeat=0&amp;show_ads_preroll=0&amp;show_ads_postroll=0&amp;show_ads_overlay=0&amp;legal_owner=0&amp;eid1=0&amp;slot=0&amp;g=0&amp;a=0&amp;puid34=0&amp;water_mark=&amp;can_rotate=1&amp;c3=&amp;no_adfox=1&amp;ads_preview=0&amp;puid4=0&amp;url240=http://cs505420v4.vk.me/u164681391/videos/3db79b5d6d.240.mp4?extra=D0j3UO6n8dPwDgaNZXS5TbpsaynlgivH2y_L8viVqgfY7xW98I-99CNw08vomo0qwM7NyMTi3mmG4EjeM-J4qNC_IdjPOFI&amp;jpg=http://cs505420.vk.me/u164681391/video/l_6b169856.jpg&amp;ip_subm=1&amp;video_ext=1&amp;is_yandex=0&apm;&amp;is_vk=1&amp;is_ext=1&amp;referrer=&amp;lang_add=Add+to+My+Videos&amp;lang_added=Video+added+to+My+Videos&amp;lang_share=Share&amp;lang_like=Like&amp;lang_subscribe=Subscribe&amp;lang_subscribed=You+have+subscribed&amp;lang_volume_on=Unmute&amp;lang_volume_off=Mute&amp;lang_volume=Volume&amp;lang_hdsd=Change+Video+Quality&amp;lang_open_popup=Expand&amp;lang_fullscreen=Full+Screen&amp;lang_window=Minimize&amp;lang_rotate=Rotate&amp;lang_ads_link=Advertiser%27s+Site&amp;lang_ads=Ads&amp;lang_ads_skip=Skip+ad&amp;lang_next=Next+video&amp;lang_replay=Replay&amp;lang_next_cancel=Cancel&amp;lang_ads_skip_time=Skip+ads+in+%7Btime%7D&amp;lang_report_problem=Report+a+problem..&amp;video_play_hd=Watch+in+HD&amp;video_stop_loading=Stop+Download&amp;video_player_version=VK+Video+Player&amp;goto_orig_video=Go+to+Video&amp;video_get_video_code=Copy+video+code&amp;video_load_error=The+video+has+not+uploaded+yet+or+the+server+is+not+available&amp;video_get_current_url=Copy+frame+link"></param>

so the video player cannot be embedded directly in Coppermine, but needs an iframe. Please have a look how it has been solved for vine.

After many days of clueless testing i have got it to work  ;D

ok and to share

find
Code: [Select]
$params['player'] = str_replace("{MATCH_2}", $video_id[2], $params['player']);

and below add
Code: [Select]
$params['player'] = str_replace("{MATCH_3}", $video_id[3], $params['player']);

find
Code: [Select]
$params['extra_params'] = str_replace("{MATCH_2}", $video_id[2], $params['extra_params']);
and below add
Code: [Select]
$params['extra_params'] = str_replace("{MATCH_3}", $video_id[3], $params['extra_params']);
after the last case (eg. vine after break; add
Code: [Select]
        case 'vk':

            $params = array(

'search_pattern' => '/http:\/\/(?:www\.)?vk\.com\/video_ext\.php\?oid=([A-Za-z0-9]+)&id=([A-Za-z0-9]+)&hash=([A-Za-z0-9]+)/',

                'default_width'  => 660,

                'default_height' => 415,

                'player'         => 'http://vk.com/video?act=get_swf&oid={MATCH_1}&vid={MATCH_2}&embed_hash={MATCH_3}',

You'll need to take the url out of the embed code and to save the text file extension as .vk
Title: Re: Remote videos for cpg1.5.x
Post by: chant_s on November 15, 2015, 06:42:55 pm
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 (e.g. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6B26asyGKDo)
2. Rename the text file to <filename>.<provider> (e.g. my_video.youtube)
3. Upload the text file to your Coppermine gallery (use the upload form or the batch-add feature)
4. Optional: upload a thumbnail for your video by using this plugin (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php/topic,60272.0.html)

Download: http://sourceforge.net/projects/coppermine/files/Plugins/1.5.x/cpg1.5.x_plugin_remote_videos_v1.9.zip/download

Ive uploaded the folder to the gallery directory, as well as the txt file, but this plugin doenst show in plugin directory? nor does the video work
