That's a fairly shitty host you've got there. If you've got shell access, consider building your own version of PHP and telling Apache to use it either with a
.htaccess file (will require reading documentation). I'd personally dump the host if they didn't give shell access though.
Ultimately, you're really asking the wrong questions. The question should not be ``will I be able to do X with Y and Z'', but rather ``with what software package should I do X''. The former question is answered by the later.
I think what you're going to run into is that many Youtube clone packages use obscure extensions (like ffmpeg-php) which your host isn't going to have and isn't going to want to install. Without running a custom PHP binary, you're going to be shit out of luck.
Anyway, this thread isn't about programming, and belongs elsewhere. If you have
specific programming questions, that's one thing. Otherwise
hax my anus.
