Requirements

First off we need to list some requirements as online videos need some specific server software to make them run. You don’t have to understand what any of this means, but if you copy it and send it to your host (or give them a link to this page), they can tell you if they meet these requirements.

We have also listed some recommended hosts at the bottom of the page.

Rayzz Server and PHP configurations

Some files are encrypted using Ioncube - these files in no way stop you from editing and modifying the site. If you use one of our Recommended Hosts, then you should have no problem with this, but some hosts don’t have the Ioncube loaders installed. In this case you must install the loaders manually. Simply go to the Ioncube Loaders page and download the correct loaders (in 99.9% of cases you need Linux (x86) loaders) and upload them to your host.

We recommend running Rayzz on Linux rather Windows.
