Ok. This looks like a bug. To fix this until next release, do this:

in include/ame_bbcode.php find:

and change to:

More than likely a provider error (i.e. youtube was down and then google)

Limitations with usergroup viewing permissions
----------------------------------------------
The new system uses javascript to attempt to 'hide' the embedded media and 'show' a default URL. If the user doesnt have javascript enabled or places an embedded video in their post, it will appear to them until they refresh the page. Of course, if the person doesnt have permission to view, I doubt they would have permission to embed anyway!

Sorry, Can you explain a little more. Are you saying you cant Duplicate this, or can I?

Each time i try to convert tags, i get "You are missing the \1 parameter in at least one of your conversions". Yet i havent edited anything in either Codes, or conversions box.

I just want to get rid of old [media] tags :)

I copied what you had exactly but it works for me? Make sure there are no trailing spaces maybe?

Ive just double checked, and can see no trailling spaces anywhere. I also even copied what what i pasted earlier, and still same. Any other ideas?

AME 2.5 Beta 3 has now been uploaded into the first post.

This beta addresses some bugs found in the previous beta, completes more of the admincp help (though there are still a few more admincp help items to do) and adds a couple of new features:

nomedia tag

I have implemented the ability to wrap a URL in a [nomedia] tag. Matching URLs found within these tags will not embed, but rather link with an icon to indicate that it is an offsite media link.

Embedding validation

This will help prevent AME from embedding videos that can not be shown offsite. A good example is a music video on youtube where there is no embed code displayed because the author has stipulated that the video can only be shown on youtube. Curently, the video will embed, however when you play it, you get a message saying the video is invalid (or similar).

The new validation feature will check for the embed code on the destination page. If it isn't found, AME won't embed the video. Instead, AME will wrap the URL in a [nomedia] tag (see above) which shows a link and icon to indicate that you must go offsite to view it.

For this feature to work, the extract destination data setting must be on (and working). Furthermore, the definition must have a valid validation regexp. I have updated the default youtube definition to get you started :)

Please be aware that 2.5 is still beta so treat it as such!

Sorry, I don't. I copied and pasted your entries from above and it seems to work fine (though in fairness I was trying it in the latest beta - though that shouldnt make a difference). Feel free to PM me admincp details and I will take a look when I have a minute.

about to install the beta 3 soon

just downloaded it

ok i installed it,

the nomedia tag seems to work but it dislays the url with the URL tag on each end (opening and closing tags) so i think people who use this will want that not to display..

apart from that working oki doki

Great improvement.
