Transforming codeigniter URLs to SEO friendly URLS

I just tried your example on a project I am working on and it worked just fine:

Code:

$route['world-travel-locations']  = 'videos/index';

I used http://domain.com/world-travel-locations.

What do your routes look like? What do you have configured for $config['uri_protocol']? Are you hiding the index.php with mod_rewrite? If so, what does your .htaccess file (or equivalent) look like?
