+===== Requirements =====
+VideoDB works with the typical LAMP and WAMP environments. Here are the requirements in detail:
+    * A Webserver which supports PHP ([[http://httpd.apache.org|Apache]] recommended)
+    * A recent version of [[http://www.php.net|PHP]], at least **4.3.2**(in 2.x version) is required -- PHP 5 works, too
+    * A [[http://www.mysql.org|MySQL]] Database
+    * A Webbrowser (something new with stylesheet support is probably better)

+===== First time installation =====
+Unzip the tarball into a directory below your webserver document root and make the cachedirectories writable.
+Example:
+  $> cd /var/www
+  $> tar -xzvf ~/videodb-*.tgz
+  $> chmod 777 videodb/cache/*
+You can then use the installer script to create your database. Just point your browser to ''http://www.hemptec.pointclark.net/videodb/install.php'' and follow the instructions.
+==== Manual Installation ====
+If this script doesn't work for you, file a bugreport to the [[vdb:mailinglist]] and create the database yourself by using the ''createtables.sql'' file in the ''doc'' directory.
+Example:
+  $> mysqladmin -p create videodb
+  $> mysql -p videodb < /var/www/videodb/doc/createtables.sql
+Now edit the ''/videodb/config.inc.php'' file to match your database settings.
+===== Update from a previous version =====
+For updating from a previous version just delete all files but the cache directory and keep your database. Then unzip the new tarball as described above.
+When opening the videoDB index page, videoDB will automatically recognize that a new database version is required and run the installer. Alternatively, you may call the ''install.php'' to upgrade your database or apply the ''updatedb.sql'' by using mysql's ''-f'' switch to ignore errors.
+Example:
+  $> mysql -p -f videodb < /var/www/videodb/doc/updatedb.sql
