Thanks to all who supported AME as MotM. We won :D

Yeah, Google Video has decided to be another one of these endless video harvesting site, just like LongIslandOnline. I don't quite get the point of that. But in any case, Google Video will only work for Google hosted video.

@xtremeoff-road: When you try to embed the URL for a YouTube video you found on Google Video, you have to use the YouTube permalink. Not the Google link. That's just one of the downsides to sites that decide they want to be harvesters of everyone else's videos. I'm just going to have to go through all these new sites their adding and see if I can make a working definition for each of them.


Pulled way out in front towards the end there. Congrats. :D

i installed 2.0.2 but the amazon icon is not showing in my different styles.
although i have uploaded the image to image/misc folder of the respective styles but i am not seeing the amazon icon.

rest of the procedure was followed as told.

am i missing something?

Is there a broken image?

I'm trying to convert all my media tags to ame tags, but can't seem to get it working correctly. First off, I just went back a week for safety reasons.

I went to Tools->Convert Codes and entered "media" (no quotes or brackets) into the Codes box. Then, in the Conversions box, I entered "\1" (again, no quotes or brackets). This converted all of the media tags to url tags.

I didn't know what to do at this point, because I thought this would have converted my media tags to the ame tags that AME uses... So, I tried to Rebuild my old posts and had the following settings:

Remove [ame] codes => no
Ignore previous => yes
Test mode => no
Verbose => no
How far to go back => 1 week
Per page => 100
Seconds per page => 10

First of all, there's some sort of nasty bug with this, because after I clicked Save, there were 27 pages that the system tried going through, 24 of which were past 1 week.

That aside, I didn't see any of the url tagged posts get converted to ame tags.

What am I doing wrong??

The convert tools change media tags to URL ones, not AME tags. Once you 'un-media' them, you can rebuild as you mentioned.

What version are you using?

Try running in test mode and verbose so you can see the changes it is trying to make.

Also remember to click install if you have installed :D

thanks! I totally forgot.

The version I'm running is 2.5 RC 1.

Cool, that's what I thought:)

That's just it. When I try to run the Rebuild, it says there is 29 pages to go through, but only 4 of them are within the week that I specified.

I did perform a little test of my own. I created a new post in a hidden forum. This post contained 1) A youtube video using the media tag 2) A youtube link with the ame tag.

When I ran the Rebuild, the post showed up with the message:

Better support, more media coverage I am a convert from "the other one" :D

Thank you!

Sweep - it will have ignored it because you posted it while AME was active. Since the ignore previous option was set to yes, it wont try to reprocess those that it knows have been 'amefied' ;)

Sounds to me that the only hiccup here is the time restraint. Everything else should be cool ye?
