Same here as well.

Only other thing changed on my site recently is a vBSEO patch.

Same thing in my forum.

Since yesterday, the hack is not parsing the youtube videos

I just tested some youtube videos and it worked. Seems to be working still.

old already parsed videos is not the problem, the problem is when you post a new video, its not working anymore.

I'll go back and take a look at it again. If I remember correctly, I tried loading to like named files AND also tried just loading to the root folder. The index.html DEFINITELY caused the problem. Once it was deleted, all good.

Yes, posted new videos to a 3.7 site and a 3.8 site that I run and they both worked.

Still not working here. (Just tried posting another video.) I've made no changes to vBulletin, our configuration, server, etc. to associate with this problem.

Same here it must be youtube because my passive video stopped working too, so Installed AME and I get the same link that external embedding is not available.

Losing my mind and members are having a fit.

As a workaround while YouTube's API changes are digested I found that unticking "Extract Info" for the YouTube definitions allowed new videos to be embedded again. No titles or anything but at least the vids work until a full solution is found.

Worked for me as well.

Running vb 3.8.4 with AME and everything's been fine. All of a sudden all the embedded youtube videos are all links. When you try to add a new video it just puts a link in the post. Didn't change anything in admin and the setting all look correct.

How to fix?

Thanks.

Same problem here. No Changes were made either. :confused:

Thanks, that did it :)

It worked me to but only on new posts. The old one's are still links. Looks like all the old youtube vids are now tagged with URL bb code. Funny thing is, on my other site all the vids are fine.

Same here. I hate when they pull this stuff. Yes we benefit from their services, but they also benefit. We are just regarded as trash in their corporate eyes I guess????

Looking for a script to update older effected posts if anyone has one?

theres no problem with the old posted and correctly parsed videos.
any videos posted after the youtube change will be affected.

Hi The Geek, wonder isit possible that you can code this to vb4 soon? i am sure a lot vb4 users badly need this. :x

That worked great with AME on my unmolested site... now I need help with my heavily modded site that has Passive Video Premium installed and YouTube stopped working... it does not have the same type tick boxes as AME... and it's so modified AME throws errors... so I can't use AME on this one........ drat

Your plugin is great as I've just begun to start using it. No hitches with Youtube, except for having to set Extract Info to No.

Issue though as it appears that WeGame is not embedding. What kind of info do you need to help diagnose this? I have Extract info set to off and just pasted the link in like for youtube.

Thanks for your time.

How do you disable videos from automatically playing? I'm embedding wmv files and I haven't found an option to disable autoplay.

Hi, I made sure to check your Troubleshooting Post.

The particular issue that addresses my needs is:

This is not the case as I created a separate BBCode tag for WeGame and it works just fine. I'd prefer it work with AME though.

Anyone have a working AME for using WeGame?

Thanks in advance.

Well I hope this mod gets updated to address whatever is causing YouTube video urls from being parsed -- it's a great mod and needs to continue. :)

Back to speculation -- maybe this YouTube glitch is related to using the legacy YouTube API that was shut down on Nov. 11?

Sounds like the validation of youtube is barfing up. Either disable extraction, OR remove the validation setting for youtube.

To be honest, the validation process is a PITA and youtube have fixed the reason I had to validate the links in the first place. If removing the validation works, Ill update the mod to remove it altogether.

Regarding 4.0:
I have requested a couple of small 4.0 code changes to be able to extend their video bbcode system in an AME'ish way. Will let you know how it proceeds.

Turning off "Extract Info" does not seem to be working for me.

Turning off Extract Info fixed the issue for me.

I noiced that it has conflict with vbAnonymizer

Thank you for this. I bought the pro version of PassiveVideo, but they refused to give any support on the recent YouTube issue, so I uninstalled and switched to AME, which I was able to get to work with YouTube by disabling extraction.

how/where can i edit the "default ame template" (container) ?

omg found it finally at Style & templates option...

for old topics : [vbAnonymizer installed]

the video is ok on youtube but it still shows the link and image beside

it just shows : YouTube- Broadcast Yourself.

i should edit the post and post it a gain

the reasone is vbAnonymizer

can you fix it so the links be checked if they are youtube links or not b4 they are vbAnonymized

Sorry, but no. There isn't anything to fix. I don't know vbAnonymizer but would suspect it changes all URLs. If thats the case, tell it to leave AME's stuff alone!

How Could I :-)

can you try solving it ??

this mod doesn't confilct with it and works for 3.8.x perfectly

Geek if removing the validation setting for youtube (how to do this???) and turning the extract back on will it allow the video to have 'the name of the video' again at the top of the player???
+++++++
EDIT
ok I just tested and turned extract back on and removed the validation BUT YouTube- Broadcast Yourself. STILL shows at the top of the video. It does not pull the video name :(

how do u uninstall this mod? I am getting this error whenever I try

Database error in vBulletin 3.7:

Does anyone know how to force it to start pulling the video name again???

i'm not sure how the rebuild under tools works. if i make a change to an existing definition how to i rebuild all the old posts that are using the old definition to reflect this new change.

Ok, problem is when I'm importing all definitions from one file, it imported only first ones up to "Daily HaHa (Funny Pictures)"

It said it worked like a charm, but it hasn't. Others are skipped, or something. They aren't there...

But when I start to manually import one by one definition, I can import them. And they work ok.

How to import all definitions in one go? Is there something I should change in php.ini file and where should I put this changed php.ini file? Has anybody idea? It's vB3.8.4

I have the same problem, does anyone know if there is a fix? If not, is there a way to disable the AME product in just this googlemapsme page? It's just one php file.

Just uploaded 2.5.6 which:

• Removes Youtube's validation process. This was the source of a lot of fals positives 'no media' links appearing.
• Fixed a typo which led to ccurl not being used if availible (another source of woe)
• Fixed a couple other minor things

Note regarding upgrading: If you use the file cache, you MUST rebuild your file cache after upgrading. To do so, upgrade then browse to AME CP > Tools > Resync File Cache.

Regarding 4.0 support: There will be a new version of AME for vb4.0. In fact, I already have a prototype working. It still remains to be seen if as many features can be includeded in this series as the last, but the fundamentals will be there.

v. 2.5.6 discussions start here :)

It can only pull the name if extraction is on. Try 2.5.6 and turn the extraction back on.
