Looking for input on tube script (for legal site)

[Simon]

I'm working through a list of tube scripts I found posted at the Zoo. Most of them seem to be scrappers or more for those who want to host the videos and most allow user-uploads (optional on some).

Eliminating most them, I'm down to just a few.

The Nubiles script is one I'll stick somewhere as a test to see how it stacks up against whichever of the commercial scripts I decide to use. Then the finals are down to TEVS and TubeX, but I still do want to take a look at Tube Ace and also that expensive script with a bunny in its name.

And I'll take a look at STXtube now that's it's been mentioned since that one wasn't on my list.

Please do keep the input coming.

Thanks


added: ~NH~ wrote that Mediaxxx script was $300, but it's currently marked down to $99 -- however, it's more for allowing user-uploads and community-building based around them uploading content. I'm not interested at all in letting surfers upload videos or photos.

I attempted to install it, but got nothing except a blank page -- not even an error code. The install instructions that come in the download aren't the same as on their site, so I tried it both ways. Also, it only supports three programs. The demo is pretty, but I can't spend all morning thumbing my butt, not that I'm averse to such things.

(And yes, I'm still retired, Robert.)

It is still RC (release candidate). But no problems so far. Can we get in touch with you to find the cause? Thanks.

Don't lie UW

I know nothing about any of this - but I'd run with the JMB product - their products are first rate - and they're fair, no fees for upgrades (on everything i've ever bought from them)

It's really pretty easy to massage any list into a nubiles list and import it. It takes a bit of monotonous time doing but it also expands the sponsors that you can work with immensely.

Be interesting to see what you come up with. I know I decided to go with the Nubiles script because I really didn't see any features in TEVS or Tube Ace that warranted paying for the script.

The only real feature I wish the nubiles script had was commenting as I think commenting would feed better into the rating aspect and ratings would feed better into the commenting.

But, given my experience with blogs, I actually wonder how much use the commenting feature would get.
