I have a you tube embed code uploaded on my Vbulletin 3.8, but I don't know how or where to find a code to embed these movies from website Archives dot org

Here's a copy of a code to embed that they provide, but can't seem to find someway to embed it onto the forum:

http://www.archive.org/details/All-Bran_Flakes

<object width="640" height="506" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"><param value="true" name="allowfullscreen"/><param value="always" name="allowscriptaccess"/><param value="high" name="quality"/><param value="true" name="cachebusting"/><param value="#000000" name="bgcolor"/><param name="movie" value="http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.commercial-3.2.1.swf" /><param value="config={'key':'#$aa4baff94a9bdcafce8','playlist':['format=Thumbnail?.jpg',{'autoPlay':false,'url':'A ll-Bran_Flakes_512kb.mp4'}],'clip':{'autoPlay':true,'baseUrl':'http://www.archive.org/download/All-Bran_Flakes/','scaling':'fit','provider':'h264streaming'},'can vas':{'backgroundColor':'#000000','backgroundGradi ent':'none'},'plugins':{'controls':{'playlist':fal se,'fullscreen':true,'height':26,'backgroundColor' :'#000000','autoHide':{'fullscreenOnly':true}},'h2 64streaming':{'url':'http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.pseudostreaming-3.2.1.swf'}},'contextMenu':[{'View+All-Bran_Flakes+at+archive.org':null},'-','Flowplayer v3.2.1']}" name="flashvars"/><embed src="http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.commercial-3.2.1.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="640" height="506" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" cachebusting="true" bgcolor="#000000" quality="high" flashvars="config={'key':'#$aa4baff94a9bdcafce8','playlist':['format=Thumbnail?.jpg',{'autoPlay':false,'url':'A ll-Bran_Flakes_512kb.mp4'}],'clip':{'autoPlay':true,'baseUrl':'http://www.archive.org/download/All-Bran_Flakes/','scaling':'fit','provider':'h264streaming'},'can vas':{'backgroundColor':'#000000','backgroundGradi ent':'none'},'plugins':{'controls':{'playlist':fal se,'fullscreen':true,'height':26,'backgroundColor' :'#000000','autoHide':{'fullscreenOnly':true}},'h2 64streaming':{'url':'http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.pseudostreaming-3.2.1.swf'}},'contextMenu':[{'View+All-Bran_Flakes+at+archive.org':null},'-','Flowplayer v3.2.1']}"> </embed></object>

You can do it if you put it in a template (ETA: but that's not the same as posting it, so that probably doesn't help). I think you can also do it if the forum allows html, but I think that's something you don't want to do in general. Maybe you could allow HTML in a forum only moderators can post to, if that works for you.

BTW, just to save you time - you can't enable HTML, post something, then disable it, it won't work :)

What are you using for youtube? Maybe it can be modified.

You would need a BB Code to embed this video... I tested it and it can work but it's a major pain to use because the videos sometimes have 2 names is different places... so if you wanted to use it make a new BB Code called: archive.

Make the replacement code:


<object width="640" height="506" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"><param value="true" name="allowfullscreen"/><param value="always" name="allowscriptaccess"/><param value="high" name="quality"/><param value="true" name="cachebusting"/><param value="#000000" name="bgcolor"/><param name="movie" value="http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.commercial-3.2.1.swf" /><param value="config={'key':'#$aa4baff94a9bdcafce8','playlist':['format=Thumbnail?.jpg',{'autoPlay':false,'url':'{ option}_512kb.mp4'}],'clip':{'autoPlay':true,'baseUrl':'http://www.archive.org/download/{param}/','scaling':'fit','provider':'h264streaming'},'can vas':{'backgroundColor':'#000000','backgroundGradi ent':'none'},'plugins':{'controls':{'playlist':fal se,'fullscreen':true,'height':26,'backgroundColor' :'#000000','autoHide':{'fullscreenOnly':true}},'h2 64streaming':{'url':'http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.pseudostreaming-3.2.1.swf'}},'contextMenu':[{},'-','Flowplayer v3.2.1']}" name="flashvars"/><embed src="http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.commercial-3.2.1.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="640" height="506" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" cachebusting="true" bgcolor="#000000" quality="high" flashvars="config={'key':'#$aa4baff94a9bdcafce8','playlist':['format=Thumbnail?.jpg',{'autoPlay':false,'url':'{ option}_512kb.mp4'}],'clip':{'autoPlay':true,'baseUrl':'http://www.archive.org/download/{param}/','scaling':'fit','provider':'h264streaming'},'can vas':{'backgroundColor':'#000000','backgroundGradi ent':'none'},'plugins':{'controls':{'playlist':fal se,'fullscreen':true,'height':26,'backgroundColor' :'#000000','autoHide':{'fullscreenOnly':true}},'h2 64streaming':{'url':'http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.pseudostreaming-3.2.1.swf'}},'contextMenu':[{},'-','Flowplayer v3.2.1']}"> </embed></object>


Use Option: Yes
All Disable Options: Yes

To use the code you need both an "option" and a "parameter"
Look at the embed code for any video... the option is the name after: {'autoPlay':false,'url':
The Parameter is the name after: {'autoPlay':true,'baseUrl':'http://www.archive.org/download/

The BB Code is formated as: paramete

For example look at:
http://www.archive.org/details/ExtremeLegoBreakdancing

The embed code they give is:

<object width="640" height="506" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"><param value="true" name="allowfullscreen"/><param value="always" name="allowscriptaccess"/><param value="high" name="quality"/><param value="true" name="cachebusting"/><param value="#000000" name="bgcolor"/><param name="movie" value="http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.commercial-3.2.1.swf" /><param value="config={'key':'#$aa4baff94a9bdcafce8','playlist':['format=Thumbnail?.jpg',{'autoPlay':false,'url':'X-tremeBreakdancing_512kb.mp4'}],'clip':{'autoPlay':true,'baseUrl':'http://www.archive.org/download/ExtremeLegoBreakdancing/','scaling':'fit','provider':'h264streaming'},'can vas':{'backgroundColor':'#000000','backgroundGradi ent':'none'},'plugins':{'controls':{'playlist':fal se,'fullscreen':true,'height':26,'backgroundColor' :'#000000','autoHide':{'fullscreenOnly':true}},'h2 64streaming':{'url':'http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.pseudostreaming-3.2.1.swf'}},'contextMenu':[{},'-','Flowplayer v3.2.1']}" name="flashvars"/><embed src="http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.commercial-3.2.1.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="640" height="506" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" cachebusting="true" bgcolor="#000000" quality="high" flashvars="config={'key':'#$aa4baff94a9bdcafce8','playlist':['format=Thumbnail?.jpg',{'autoPlay':false,'url':'X-tremeBreakdancing_512kb.mp4'}],'clip':{'autoPlay':true,'baseUrl':'http://www.archive.org/download/ExtremeLegoBreakdancing/','scaling':'fit','provider':'h264streaming'},'can vas':{'backgroundColor':'#000000','backgroundGradi ent':'none'},'plugins':{'controls':{'playlist':fal se,'fullscreen':true,'height':26,'backgroundColor' :'#000000','autoHide':{'fullscreenOnly':true}},'h2 64streaming':{'url':'http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.pseudostreaming-3.2.1.swf'}},'contextMenu':[{},'-','Flowplayer v3.2.1']}"> </embed></object>

Colors and Bold added for emphasis...

The BB Code to embed that video would be:

ExtremeLegoBreakdancing

This is a lot more difficult to follow then sites like youTube who only have the parameter to worry about and no option.
