jrYouTube and Video Charts on ProJam skin

I just realized that on the video charts youtube videos are not on the charts. How do i make youtube videos be a part of the video charts ? For example http://exposehits.com/video_charts theres nothing there and I know I have to upload videos to get something there but I use YouTube videos more than anything. If this can be done that will be great. Is it because of the skin ? If it is which skin is better for something like this ? Thanks.

Do you want uploaded videos and youtube videos on the same chart?

This is what the "Seamless" module was designed to do:

https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/modules/289/jrseamless

You can just changed the {jrCore_list .. call to jrSeamless - i.e.


This would be changed in the template you want to modify - i.e. "video_charts.tpl" in your ACP -> Skins -> ActiveSkin -> Templates area.

Hope this helps!

Paul that took away the error but the charts page is still empty this is the code



{if isset($_conf.jrProJamLight_require_images) && $_conf.jrProJamLight_require_images == 'on'}
{if isset($_post.search_area) && $_post.search_area == 'video_category'}
{jrSeamless_list modules="jrVideo,jrYouTube" chart_field="video_file_stream_count" chart_days="7" search="video_category like `$_post.search_string`" template="video_chart_row.tpl" require_image="video_image" pagebreak=$_conf.jrProJamLight_default_pagebreak page=$_post.p}
{else}
{jrSeamless_list modules="jrVideo,jrYouTube" chart_field="video_file_stream_count" chart_days="7" template="video_chart_row.tpl" require_image="video_image" pagebreak=$_conf.jrProJamLight_default_pagebreak page=$_post.p}
{/if}
{else}
{if isset($_post.search_area) && $_post.search_area == 'video_category'}
{jrSeamless_list modules="jrVideo,jrYouTube" chart_field="video_file_stream_count" chart_days="7" search="video_category like `$_post.search_string`" template="video_chart_row.tpl" pagebreak=$_conf.jrProJamLight_default_pagebreak page=$_post.p}
{else}
{jrSeamless_list modules="jrVideo,jrYouTube" chart_field="video_file_stream_count" chart_days="7" template="video_chart_row.tpl" pagebreak=$_conf.jrProJamLight_default_pagebreak page=$_post.p}
{/if}
{/if}

Actually, I don't think the seamless module handles charts, as such. Its something I need to look into.
You can do an 'order_by="*_file_stream_count NUMERICAL_DESC"' to get a list of most played, or, as you say that your site is mostly YouTube videos, you could change module="jrVideo" to module="jrYouTube" in the original jrCore_list call to get a proper YouTube chart.

It seems using jrYouTube in the original jrCore did it but its not showing videos just blank icons under 1 week charts. Does it take time for it to populate ? http://exposehits.com/video_charts

Surely charts should handle seamless?

To me, it would seem wrong the other way around.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Education, learning resources, TEL, AR/VR/MR, CC licensed content, panoramas, interactive narrative, sectional modules (like jrDocs), lunch at Uni of Bristol. Get in touch if you share my current interests or can suggest better :)

It's more complicated than it might seen on the surface... but we'll check it out.

Yeah - I need to check it out, but I guess that being presented with different DS prefixes would confuse the jrCharts module. There might need to be a wildcard handler somewhere.

whats the solution for this ? Anybody ?

As we said above, charting both video and youtube seamlessly is not straightforward and we need to look into it further.
I'm away for the next couple of weeks and its not easy for me to do any 'serious' JR work until I'm back home, but will take a look then if this issue is still outstanding.
In the meantime, as you have mostly youtube videos, you can chart just those by changing the module parameter in the charting smarty call.

In video_charts.tpl change

{jrCore_list module="jrVideo" chart_field="video_file_stream_count" chart_days="7" search="video_category like `$_post.search_string`" template="video_chart_row.tpl" require_image="video_image" pagebreak=$_conf.jrMediaProLight_default_pagebreak page=$_post.p}

to

{jrCore_list module="jrYouTube" chart_field="youtube_file_stream_count" chart_days="7" search="youtube_category like `$_post.search_string`" template="youtube_chart_row.tpl" pagebreak=$_conf.jrMediaProLight_default_pagebreak page=$_post.p}

then copy video_chart_row.tpl to youtube_chart_row.tpl, edit it changing parameters video_* to youtube_*

There may be other things that need changing that are pertinent to the youtube datastore, but this is a starting point.

The code paul suggested will work.I have a youtube chart as well as a soundcloud chart on my Nova skin site based on similar code.

http://zmusic.biz/soundcloud_chart

Nonetheless,a Seamless Charts module would be the best addition to JR5.
