hooks.php in Video 6

The video module has some hooks which should make adding new features to the video module easier.

This file contains example of implementation and documentation for all the available hooks defined in the video module.

Video module hooks are different from standard drupal hooks Video module hooks have a leading "v_". The name of a function which is implementing a video hook is something like: modulename_v_hookname

Although each active module which implement a video module hooks will be executed when that hook is called, if you are developing a video module specific addition (a plug in) I suggest you to call your module video_something and place it under your video module plugins folder.
