Is there a way to import all videos from a certain username ???
e.g
this is a user i would like to import 8000 videos from
http://www.youtube.com/user/gamespot#g/u
into my gaming section.
Has anyone thought about this ???

its not something iv added at the moment, possible a feature for a later update.
Havent tried this D, but found this clip on creating a RSS feed from user specific on YouTube
http://video.answers.com/how-to-create-a-youtube-user-rss-feed-24491461
so, for little work, i would scrape the feed if i were you
Would it be just a case of adding a small script Mark ??
Danie that works
but only shows last 20
also how would this work for adding the actual video ??
ill check for you, hold on
current feed query is this;
$feedURL = 'http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos?vq="'.$vq.'"&orderby='.$s.'&max-results='.$i.'&start-index='.$o;
i could be wrong but i think the username query needs to be;
http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/base/users/{put username here}/uploads
maybe u can check and confirm? (my firewall is having issues with youtube atm)
thats what i did Mark but it gets redirected to http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/base/users/gamespot/uploads?orderby=updated&alt=rss&client=ytapi-youtube-rss-redirect&v=2
Forget that, that works too
So with this feed
http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/base/users/gamespot/uploads
I can add to feedwordpress and get it to upload posts but obviously the video will not add in the way MoviePress works
sorted?
no
if you scrape the feed as such, can convert the data to a CSV for import into MP.
Dont know if it will be possible to get USER videos imported through MP (wd be NICE) but have noticed loads of issues and queries online re this.
Longer work sure, but if Mark cant get this ability added with YouTube API, I have no idea how to get this into MP either. I wd use the scrape and import process.
D
Danie how would i go about scraping a feed ??? I have never used feeds before to be honest
let me set up a login for you, and write some instructions, mad busy at moment, but as soon as i can, and will pm you
would it be just as quick to copy/paste the links into the mass import tool for the videos created by the user, that way you can import as you would still need to go and find the username for all users anyways, would be alittle slower but alot faster than having to rewrite any code.
mark,
How can I mass import(1000+) youtube videos.
I didn't see any option in admin cp.
Please let me know
@Mark doing 22,000 posts that way is not an option, it would take months
ah
i didnt think a user could have that many videos.
ill check this in detail for a later update
This user has over 77,000 videos Mark and i would like to import them all
The tube press plugin can bring in videos of from a specific YouTube account.
lol, here we go. Yes? No?
Mark, please look in to bulk import options from youtube.
Ability to upload by playlist & user ..This saves tons of time.
@steve
yes it can but not the way MoviePress works
@suresh
these are featured our theme doesnt currently have im afraid, something for a later update
@ Damian - what does it do? What data do you get? Can it go into a WP install? Can you grab all 77 000 vids to a WP install with that plugin??????
