Love the great extension!!!! However when will it be possible for us to provide our users the capacity to upload videos directly from their own hard drive?

Hi desessions,
Glad that you like them.
JVD was built initially with upload features.
Upload video is already there, however you will need to have mencoder, ffmpeg and flvtools installed in our server to convert uploaded video into an unified format such as flv and mp4.
This is why HD video comes into the picture.

video upload feature demo will be shown in the upcoming demo site that we are preparing for everyone.

And we are also putting converter installation into 1 of our service.
