View Full Version : bbCode That Plays Most Media File


Moya
12-15-2005, 10:00 PM
I am just being lazy to add all of the bbcode for

wma, wmv, avi, swf, mp3, wma, mpg, mpa, mpeg, mov. So I just come up with this little product that take care of them all - just one bbcode added

Like the usual: There are known or unknown security risks for playing media file like flash file. It is up to you to take precaution

Here is how can add this one.

Add the product via products pannel

NOTE: For some boards, the bbcode only work at the beginning of the code evaluation. If you encounter the problem where tag shows up, use
product-bbcodeplayall-parsestart.xml (http://attachment.php?attachmentid=39456&stc=1) instead of the first one.

Upload the media.gif into your images directory

BBCODE:Title:
MediaTag: mediaReplacement: {param}Example:Media Link goes hereDescription:The [media] tag allows you to play certain type of media within your posts.Use {option}: NOButton Image: images/media.gif


CSS: Additional CSS Definitions

In second box input:


.bbcode_hack
{
background-color: #FFFFFF;
border-left: 6px solid #ACDB3C;
border-right: 1px dotted #333333;
border-top: 1px dotted #333333;
border-bottom: 1px dotted #333333;
margin: 8px auto 0px auto;
padding: 5px; color:#333333;
}





That is it. You are done!!

It would be great to have this bbcode visible for members only .. maybe somehow combined with the hide hack ..

There seems to be another problem too ... everybody else can only see the written tag, like bla.mp3 ...

When I have been somewhere else in the forum and go back to my post I see the tag only too ...

Only when I edit my own post and save it, THEN I can see the player within the post .. other people however still see only the tag itself ...

You post the media, then you can see the movie etc. then you go to another thread and then back again to the media post and THEN you can see the tag only ...

Try the new upload file. I fixed that media code. When it comes to FF, it think it is depend on the plugins that your browser can import.

Did a quick test (first plugin) and I love it, but will have to wait for the bugs to get fixed before I can roll this out fully. Windows Media works fine under Firefox. Quicktime fails under Firefox. Both fail under IE. The player windows do appear, they're just unusable. Also, I'm not sure if this is your plugin or just custom BBcodes in general, but when I go to edit a post with this in it, I see all the raw html and not the BBcode stuff.

Still clicking Install. Kudos.

prat
12-17-2005, 09:18 PM
Excellent hack! I've experienced no problems since installing, but from the sounds of it other users may so I'll put the full rollout on hold. But I'm very interested in hearing about bug fixes and updates!

On a side note, is there a way to change the text/background of the header and footer appearing above and below the media player window?

Edit: There's also a space between the header and the video itself, as well as a space separating the video and the footer.

You'll just have to go through and edit the XML file for each format, and then re-upload to the server. You can also change the autostart in there.

Have you been able to make multiple inline posts with it working on all of them?

Would someone mind picking this mod up? It was a fantastic idea, and in some ways was DOA.

Is there anyway to enable that code for unregistered users? somehow only registered members can see the media.

I would suggest uninstalling this mod and going with this new one instead.

Your media gif image looks remarkably like part of an icon from the vBStyles Element set.

How can I make the media window left-aligned, instead of being in the center?
