[BB Code] Google video

[Stifmeister2]

This is a simple BB code which allows you to display Google videos. :cool:

Installation:

Go to 'Custom BB Codes' -> 'Add New BB Code'

Title: Google Video
Tag: gv
Replacement: <embed style="width:400px; height:326px;" id="VideoPlayback" align="middle" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?docId={param}" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" quality="best" bgcolor="#ffffff" scale="noScale" salign="TL" FlashVars="playerMode=embedded"> </embed>
Example: 8719729790252878017
Description: Allows you to display Google videos. Simply add the video ID inside the tag.
Use {option}: No

OPTIONAL STEP
Button Image (Optional): [enter the url to the attached pic you uploaded]

And "Save".


This was not my idea, I just noticed a recently posted hack which didn't work so I thought I'd make one that actually works. :cool: (At least worked for me, tested with three different videos.)

[Rickie3]

bah i just updated my original release

[xtremeteam]

how do you get the video ID?

EDIT n/m got it lol
view page source at the bottom>
var TAG_DISPLAY_URI = "/tags";
var did = "-2992183880068262304";

works great thanks!

[Stifmeister2]

Admins can delete this if they want... Seems like Rickie3 updated his hack couple of hours later than I posted this one. :)

This doesn't seem to work for me, all I get is a black screen.

My mistake, I'd omitted the - before the digits.

Just a thought, does this method use more of your bandwidth ?

[Stifmeister2]

Server bandwidth? No I don't think so as the videos are loaded from Google site...

[xtremeteam]

i dont know much coding but is there a way to edit it so it plays auto with no sound?

[ktp101]

Where do you look for this?

How would you make it so that the gv shows up in the default BB Code line on the thread editor?

[chkdgate]

I'm just getting black screens.

First of all, sorry for my absence as I was on a vacation and forgot about this thread. :rolleyes:


Anyway, you have to upload the attached image to your server first.
Then go to AdminCP and Custom BB Codes --> BB Code Manager.

Then edit the "Google Video" BBcode and add the right path to the image you just uploaded for the "Button Image (Optional)" field.

I'm just getting black screens.
Then I guess you've added the wrong "code".


Here's a little example how you should add the "code":

Example #1
Link to Google video: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=566073580166301634

Just copy that big number code and add it between the tag like this:
[gv]566073580166301634


Example #2
Link to Google video: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-1457005241957167536

You have to notice the little "-" mark before the numbers in this video. There are sometimes that little "-" in some videos. You have to include that too. I made same mistakes before too with that and got black screens.

Copy that big number code (and remember to include that little "-" in front of the numbers) and add it between the tag like this:
[gv]-1457005241957167536

[Renmiri]

Yeah you just have to be careful with those "-". :cool:

The instructions are above. ;) Should be pretty easy, just add a simple BB Code. :)

[vitrag24]

i know that
but if possible with single bcode for both googlevideo and youtube ?
if it is possible then better to keep single radher then double bbcodes and buttons also

[Stifmeister2]

Damn I don't think it's possible. :( I don't see how this could be done. ..

No.. but now that I did, it also has 5 different BB codes. They're all just installed when you import the product.
