I agree I installed the definitions as suggested, yet it still doesn't work. It just shows the link.

Sure, just edit the AME templates.

There is a tool in the AME CP for converting other media tags (like [media]) back into URL tags. Once that is done, there is another tool that will convert urls into AME tags.

HTHs

Thanks - Can someone tell me where/how to do this? :D

how can we add a new variable?

i see $ameinfo[url] and $ameinfo[title] but would like to add $ameinfo[threadtitle]

thought it would be just a matter of adding $threadinfo[title] but it wasn't.

thanks for the help.

Sorry, forgot about my post.

Anyway, here is the url i'm trying to embed:

http://www.gamesopoly.com/game/1979/...orcements.html

I'm using AME 2.5.5

The display definition should be attached.

How to fix accentuation fail on title?

Example:

Thanks

Where is the tool to have all url's (supported) converted to ame? Doooh Figured it Out Thanks to everyone for their Help!

in the code of the template wich is the variable that we have to change or delet to get rid of this

Can someone help me to create the definition to embed media from www.iamboredr.com?

I can't work it out.

Thanks!

Go to Display definitions and uncheck contain for youtube

Noob question.

Previously I had HTML enabled. Is there a tool I can use via AdminCP, Shell, etc to search and replace all posts? Even if it worked just for YouTube it would be great.

* I searched this mod and did not see these questions answered.

Thanks.

The templates are added to your board's skins. So go to your Style Manager and you will find them there. :)

Way too many pages of posts to pour through....but I have one simple question.

Will this allow me to post locally hosted .wmv videos, as it does all the remotely hosted ones?

Simply put, when I get a funny windows media player video file I would like to be able to embed it in a post for my members to have a good laugh!

I do realize I may also need another mod that works with this one to do it, so any help would be appreciated since 3.8 was my first purchased use of vB, and didn't have access to this end of the back office on the earlier versions, I globally moderated on another board!

Thanks for your help,

TSG!

Geek, what resolution should I set AME to so it defaults to widescreen?

Edit: Nevermind, I wound up using 576x324 and it looks nice.

What should i do about this error in admin/amecp/tools/rebuil/posts

Warning: unserialize() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in [path]/admincp/automediaembed_admin.php on line 1264

http://my.jetscreenshot.com/201/20090819-wk4l-156kb


Also,
[S]I did try to rebuild post cache in (admin/amecp/tools/rebuil/posts) but my old posts with videos are still showing only as URL - re-saving posts will put video back[/S] <---- re-did it - ALL OK NOW

I used to have golbrick before and some of the links are still showing in this format:

[media="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nbrR5mpi8jM"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nbrR5mpi8jM[/media]

and they r not being converted back to URL.

Lastly, is it possible to display videos in quotes? Now i only see link to youtube for example.


Any suggestion?
Tnx in advance!

Just wanted to say THANK YOU SOOOO MUCHHHHHHH....!!!

installed.. and works like a charm !!!

Check DJ's add on thread. I believe that he has some definitions for locally hosted files.

I suspect that the unserialize error is a one off, all it is doing is trying to save and redeploy your last used settings for that particular page. It won't actually affect the running of the page.

The convert media tags SHOULD revert the old media tags, however it may require a slightly more complex regexp type pattern. Withouth spending some time on it, I am not sure what theat would be.

re: showing in quotes, there is no way to disable this without a file edit, and it is the first time it has been mentioned. I will consider it for a future release.

Thanks, don't forget to click install ;)

Yups,... all went fine script works it just that this error message bothers me,... is there maybe anything that can be removed from that file so no more error?

;( i did trey several ways no luck,... do u maybe have a hint,- or anybody else?

My members are already `crying` because of this,... i just switched from GB (where this was working) - Hopefully this will be implemented in next release, and hopefully it will be soon ;)

I'm testing out this mod and most vids are working fine *kudos to you!*

this (random) video that I pulled from metacafe is not working though. Any reason why?

Today this error appear to me:

Is there any suggestion that could fix this? This only appear each time people try to post on "redirection window", without need to include AME on the post.

I have no clue how to add this. Vbulletin is vastly inferior to phpbb. Everything on phpbb could be done with the click of a mouse or through tech support, not ridiculous downloads with coding that I don't even understand nor know how to use.

If anybody can help me I would appreciate it. I'm extremely frustrated right now because I spend hours on the phone every day with VB over things that could be accomplished in seconds on phpbb.

There's no coding required to install this. The instructions for a New Install are included in the ZIP file in the Readme text. Only three steps, one of which is downloading the ZIP file.

nothing can touch vBulletin when it comes to customizing things. phpbb is good for someone that doesn't care about their site.

that's kinda crazy to say something is inferior just because you don't know how to use something or your use to using a different system. kinda makes you look like an a$$.

i've used all the major forum software and yes there is a slight learning curve with vbulletin but it's far superior to the rest.

just my opinion.

Anyone?

No, not with the AME tools. That would only replace BBCode. I'm afraid that would all have to be done manually, post by post.

Thanks, I figured out a way to convert most of them using cleaner from within IMPEX/tools.

i use curl
just to know is if (function_exists("curl_int")) = if (function_exists("curl_init"))

if it is bug plz tell me

it is bug after i change it dailymotion work and others also i still test others links

Funnily enough, I caught this while working on the new version just the other day. Since it hadn't been mentioned it was just going to be a silent change ;)

Totally stumped as I have no clue what you are having a problem with. Read the Readme and let me know if there is a problem (but try to be specific please)

The findonly.php file (in the above folder) is either missing or (more likely) the permissions have recently been changed on it. You can rebuild the cache files by toggling off and on the cache setting in AME

Really not sure, best to post it in the therad where you got that definition from (assume its DJ's), then it can be looked into a bit better and keep this thread focused on the core project :)

Its actually a 'feature' of AME. In other words, I spent time coding a solution to prevent ugly quoting of videos. Like I said, Ill see if I can write in an option for it, but first time its been asked for ;)

Hello,

I was really happy to have such a mod in my forum untill i installed vB blog today. Ever since, I have been getting an error like this:

Database error in vBulletin 3.8.3:

UPDATE blog_text SET ame_flag=1 WHERE blogtextid = 0;

(i dont want to disclose my real site name so i edited it into xxxxxxx.com)

but the blog is posted anyway in the forum. Any idea, what could be the problem??


This was when i tried to embed a youtube link. So i tried to post a simple blog without any attachment, it still throws up an error like this:

I'd appreciate if you could help me fix this. Thanks a lot !
plz note that the blog is posted anyway but leads to an error page. I have to go back to blog forum to check whether it's posted or not (this will confuse my users)

Check the AME tools (in the admincp). There is an option to add the ame flag to the blog system if you install it AFTER ame.

On a side note, the next version allows you to override size settings per definition and includes a test bed to test, troubleshoot and develop definitions. I will most likely wait until vb4.0 before releasing though.

Thanks a lot GEEK ..

Surprised to know you have anticipated future problems and keeps everything ready. Great work.

I just came to know, i have only 2 definitions. May be i should go out and dig more.

+1 thanks

I am having the oposite problem.. After upgrading all i get is the bar.. you have to click on the bar , and it takes you to the site to watch the vid.. It was working fine before the up grade..
