Create Album in combined videos issue and filter suggestion

I like the combined videos module but one thing is that in the menu there is a create album button but when clicked it just brings up a page listing videos and does not seem to be a way to create an album.

Also one suggestion might be to have a little filter drop down or selection box's in the videos title area so you can filter out the different types of videos if you wanted to. So let's say I wanted to just see uploaded videos then I could select that option and it would filter out just those, same for youtube, vimeo etc.

I'm not seeing an issue on my dev site, are you using all the latest module versions?

I'm not seeing that here either - make sure you're running the latest version of the modules.

My site is fully updated and my acp says no system updates all modules up to date.
This is the combined video module I am using from my profile page.

And here is the page which appears when this create album is clicked on, as you can see it is just a list of videos even though in the url for the page it's saying create album like this http://1940snetwork.com/video/create_album

John I am not having the issue you are experiencing either. when i click on the * create album in combined video list, I get a proper window where I can select videos from my computer to upload and create an 'album' with.

Do you maybe have it set right now so that you are not permitted to upload videos to your site? Maybe check "Daily Limits" module quotas as well?

OK I believe I know what the issue is here - on install the Combined Video module changes the URL of your "normal" video module to:

uploaded_video

So go into the ACP -> Media -> Video Support -> Info tab and set the Module URL to "uploaded_video" and save.

That should have been automatic on install - I'm not sure why that would have failed, but check your Debug Log and let me know if you see any MySQL errors related to that.

Let me know if that helps.

Thanks Brian, that did the trick but it also changed all the icons in the buttons.

Reset your icon cache:

ACP -> Reset Caches - check the "Reset Icon Cache".

Not sure why that would happen on a URL change, but that should fix it for you.

Did that and also integrity check and still the same for the icons. Noticed to it changeed the icons throughout the site not just in videos, I may try removing it then re-install it to see if that makes any difference.

No - it has nothing to do with that. Resetting the icon cache is what is needed - do a full refresh on your browser.
