i have installed it and when i rebuild all post i receive this warning

Hey Geek,

I've been running into a couple of problems with developing definitions for 2.5. Every so often, I make a definition and the $url and $title do not parse on certain people's forums, even with the brackets. I thought I goofed and needed to use the $ameinfo_ prefix, but that didn't work either. I've had a chance to test a few boards and see if their is a common, or conflicting hack, and can't quite find a common denominator just yet (other then the Post Thanks Hack, which I don't think is related). I forget, did I mention this already? My brain is not what I imagine it used to be.

i have the 2.5 rc1
i receive another error when ai write a new post with blip.tv link..

Did you download 2.5 very recently? That parse error was corrected in the most recent version.

yes.. yesterday..

and another error when i open ,in admincp, Tools for old post

If I decide to uninstall this later down the road will it cause problems? Will it just stop embedding videos? disable previously embedded videos? thanks!

Will this increase the CPU usage on my server by a LOT?

Thank you (I also installed the master list for video embedding)

When opening a video from YouTube it turns play/pause on and off all the time when running. When opening video on Youtube.com there is no problem. When I pull the slider a bit to the it runs, but stille with play/pause on and off. Could need a suggestion on how to fix this?

It can turn everything back to regular links if you decide to uninstall. See the information on Rebuilding tags.

Nope, it only does anything when a post is built. It's less server intensive then BBCode.

That looks to me to be a problem with YouTube itself.

Unfortunately, It is not this easy. It works just fine for some of my members, but not all. In fact, I have a coworker who sits right next to me and the videos do not work for him, yet the videos work just fine for me. What makes it even stranger, is that we have the same computers practically and are on the same network...

I downloaded and followed the instructions here (put the forums folder in my forum directory, imported the ame.xml file) , yet I'm not sure if it's installed or if there's some other step I have to take (?). The AME CP is not there and if I turn the product on, I get this error when I try to make any posts:

What have I done wrong?

Any chance you can give me a little more detail how to do this in phpmyadmin? My experience in phpmyadmin is limited although I've had no problems doing things in there with more details.

If I understand this correctly, in the Post table I would be adding a field - does it matter if it is at the beginning or end of the table or after any particular field? I'm guessing that the Field Name would be "ame_flag"? Do I need any values after the Type?

Thanks.

Great Mod...but having a problem. The youtube video plays fine until you try to go to full screen mode. If you select the full screen mode, the sound continues but the video freezes. When you hit the escape key to go back to minimized mode, the video plays correctly but the rest of the webpage goes pure white. Here is a link to what I'm talking about:

Update: It only appears to be happening in IE. Not Safari, Netscape, or Firefox.

Update: Now it seems to only be in my home browser IE7 Browser. At work it's fine but at home it's broke. I'm using IE7 in both places. I updated my Java at home to no effect. Is there something else I should check? 80% of my users use IE so I'd like to figure it out before it goes to my live board. Any ideas?

The Geek, i also have a problem with showing the youtube videos as no longer available.

I noticed that you said extraction needs to be on and the server needs to support it.

Wich option on the server should i chance, i guess it has something to do with php.

Thanks for this awesome mod. But i have a question.
How do i edit the Post Width and Height? I edited them to 500x500 under Posting Zone Settings. It's still intact with the default settings.

Does anyone know why sometimes a posted YouTube video will just show the "loading" animated circle image and hang?

It appears I needed to update my flash player. It's working now.

I wasn't suggesting it was easily dismissed, what I'm suggesting is that it's not a modification issue. All AME does is replicate the embed code provided by YouTube. It would either work, or it wouldn't. Bizzare behavior is generally an indication of a problem with the source of the video, which would explain why it's different for different users/computers.

Did you upload the contentsof the forums folder to your forums directory, or did you just put the entire folder there? The reason it's called forums is because most folks have their forum located in a folder called forums. Whatever folder you keep your forum in is your forum's root directory. So that's where the contents of the forums folder should go.

great mod ..

Thanks - this works great on my site! :D

Same issue here when I try to rebuild the post cache. Turned off 'enable file cache' and 'extract destination data' then tried rebuilding again and it worked.

Just installed this today. Have the same issue as a few other people with the flash loading icon appearing but no video. However, this only seems to happen in the Firefox browser, works fine in IE. Any suggestions?

Update flash and/or ff.

REMEMBER: This system only transforms your URL into the destination sites embed code!


Finally the following type of errors:

failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [path]/includes/ame_bbcode.php

Are because the files were either not uploaded into the correct location, some files weren't uploaded or the uploaded files do not have permission to be run.

Sorry, I really can't. If you are semi new to using phpmyadmin and/or sql I would suggest avoiding the use of it (especially on a large site). Im sure it isn't what you want to hear, however I just don't feel overly comfortable helping you edit your db tables via a forum. Hope you understand :)

Most likely a post cache issue

PM me some example DJ and Ill check into them :)

Nope. I have some changes for another RC or Gold, but havent had time to roll them up into a release. TBH, there are really few problems with the current RC and the issues that are there are pretty minor as they mainly just prevent rebuilding and/or converting old posts.

Hello folks, I need some help here.

I'm getting the following error message on my 'test' forums.

Any suggestions on what to do in order to fix this?

Check your file cache settings and make sure that the folder that stores the cache (by default this is called amecache) is writeable if you are using the file cache.

Yes, it was at 777.

Any other suggestions?

did you confirm the path in your file cache settings?

Yes, file path is correct (/testvb/amecache/) in the settings. And it's clicked to 'yes'.

What else should I check?

if you disable file caching, does it work?

It does work when setting Enable File Cache to "no".

Will it cause any issues if I don't enable file cache? How will it affect my forum?

it will be fine set to no. Having it on gives a performance boost though.

I suggest double checking the path and folder permissions again. Turn it back on to see if the cache gets built in the amecache folder. If that doesnt work, you wont be able to use it :)

Thanks. I've set it to 'off' and then 'on' a couple times now and it's working now on "on" for some reason. So, I'm not going to touch it again for now! :D

Thanks for your help.

Can you tell me whether it is possible to embed videos that are hosted at www.screencast.com with this product? Thanks.

See, I told you it would be something simple that I was too braindead to think of. :D

Only for one media type, and not the multiple types the site uses.

Great work on 2.5, it was great before, but the new features are awesome.

I just saw someone post about this in DJs thread so I thought I'd bring it here since I ran into this too. When importing definitions like from DJ's master list, you're stopped completely from importing if you have any definitions included in the master list even if you deselect them from being imported. I understand it was built to avoid duplicates, but I think it should be changed to allow you to selectively import from the master list as long as you deselect the duplicates or just import the non-duplicates, or something like that...

For most I'm sure it's not an issue deleting the old, but if you edit the replacement codes you're then stuck to adding new or updated definitions one by one, or deleting the old and re-editing one by one.
