You can have a YouTube-like site up and running in a matter of minutes in a shared hosting environment.
I first tried the free version and used a webhosts recommended by the developer. I've been very happy with my webhost for many years and was reluctant to use one unknown to me, but my webhost does not have FFMPEG installed on shared hosting accounts. The one I ended up using not only has everything needed to run this component but also has a php upload limit of 500MB and excellent support as well.
Enough about the webhost, the component is awesome. It worked right out of the box and any questions or glitches I had were answered promptly via the forum. I was very pleasantly surprised.
I wanted to make some customizations to the layout and found modifying the code to be easy enough.
This is fantastic for a free component and the Pro version was only US$32. Quite a value! Thank you!

I've had this extension for awhile now and I thought it was great, but today I discovered how to REALLY get so much more out of it:
I set up a cron job in my cpanel for the first time - it was much easier than I expected. I had always avoided the crontab, thinking it was too complicated.
Put this in the cron's "command to run":
php /home/[MYPATH]/public_html/administrator/components/com_xcloner/cloner.cron.php
replacing [MYPATH] with yours.
The cron job runs JoomlaCloner every night, which creates a backup file and ftp's the file to another server.
So now I can have all the Joomla sites I manage run a daily backup and transfer it off the live server to another server that's used for storing backups.
You can set it to delete backups that are older than xx days.

They call the property listings "Objects" and it is hardcoded throughout the code. The language file has it in several places, but then you have to go through the code to find all the places where it's hardcoded. For example, the javascript prompts "Please select an object to ...". This search was made more difficult by all the variables named "object".
The advanced search does not give you the option of disabling (not showing) certain search fields, such as "country" or "district". If you're running a local real estate site, you don't want the county field showing in the search options.

It doesn't get any easier than this! This takes all the work out of displaying a video in content.

I was working on an important project and tried several mambots but there were either bugs in the bots or problems in IE6. I needed to write my own code but of course the WYSIWYG editor was making a mess of it. I thought I was going to have to write 16 different php include files, but then I remembered Jumi.
Using parameters I was able to write one include file for all 16 calls to the code!
