This is because before most video sites didn't have a crosssite.xml file set up. They just allowed anyone to connect with flash. This is a huge security hole and pretty much all the video sites fixed this. This is why you can't use the anymedia player to play sites like youtube anymore. Its not a bug with this hack.

There are still ways of doing it but it requires an API.

yea u right . thanks for explain . anyway that would be great if it can be fixed somehow . with or without that fix , this hack is great :)

thanks

The only fix is to use an API if the site has one. Youtube has one but everyone would have to get an developers ID to use it. Its something I can look into later.

Does anyone use the options code when posting a video or media? I'm looking to streamline this hack as much as possible and I don't see a need for that. Any thoughts on it?

Yes, my members do in fact use the options to resize video all the time (usually Yahoo video.) They shrink it to 320 x 240 to match the original dimensions of their digicam videos they take. It looks much better that way (as opposed to the default size Yahoo stretches it to.) They don't use the autostart or loop options though. But size, certainly. Please don't get rid of it!

I won't. As long as someone uses it i'll leave it. I should be done with 3.1 soon. It's taken a little longer then I expected just because of real life stuff. I'm sure you know how that is. But I think it will be worth the wait. Its really going to stand out. I have fixed most of the stuff that drives me crazy about embedding videos.

The first release will be a beta and I'll tweak with your suggestions.

So if I read things correctly this mod will no longer work with YouTube videos?

Youtube videos will still work. They were talking about using a separate anymedia embedding player instead of the site's default like the anymedia for 3.5.x had an option for. It will still support all the current video sites just fine.

I don't understand this option could someone explain it in simple terms.

Disable the AnyMedia BBcode in Quote Tags

Setting this option to 'yes' will filter the AnyMedia BBCodes in the Quote Tags.

also, is there anyway to have the media player centered by default in the post.

Thanks

Ok...having a problem here. Uploaded the latest files, then imported the crist 3.5 product reading that the 3.6 product doesn't work on 3.5...seems ok. When I go to the options screen and try to select media types and save ..nothing gets saved...what's going on?

this version wont work with crist version. You'll have to go through the new product.xml and delete wherever you see this.

I'm also pretty close to being have a test version of 3.1 out.
