I purchased the support plan and paid a lot of money to have a jvideodirect engineer install and configure the codecs, converters.
Prior to purchasing the support package, there was no support and no one seemed to manage the forums for a long time (years). Once I paid for the support package, I received emails from ethan. He pointed out that they only support Linux. So I scrapped my windows server and installed linux. I still couldn't get it to work but in all fairness, i dont know much about linux. I paid additional money and had ethan's engineers configure and complete the installation. It works really nicely. One of the reasons I purchased the install and support was that I was told that the new version would support sub directories. The release was scheduled for January. I have been writing jvideodirect for 2 months now and I have yet to get a response. I really wish that this company would improve their support as this product although complex works. If you are looking for a product that is supported, I would not recommend this one.

JVideoDirect is a GREAT video sharing extension. They need to develop the 1.6 version, but I am entirely pleased with the product and it works incredibly well! I was impressed with their support but wish it went beyond just forums. Hopefully their 1.6 version is just as stable and versatile as the current 1.5 version.
Easy set up, easy to use, top notch support.
I would like to say thank you, to JVideoDirect, and their team. I operate several websites utilizing their service and video extension. I have had several customizations to JVideoDirect completed by them and have found their support to be top notch.
They return emails quickly, very fair with pricing custom services, a joy to work with. They go above and beyond to help with every aspect of their extension. I would highly recommend them for all your video needs. They strive to continue to Improve JVideoDirect to keep it the best video extension available. They are very successful at what they do and have helped me achieve my goals.
Much appreciation!
