IGN Movie Trailers Embed BB Code
 

What is it?

Embed videos from IGN.com (movie trailers) via BB Code into your forum. As requested here.


How does it work?

Update: The BB Code has been fixed. In order to use it, use the following method, and update the old BB Code if installed.

To get the below code, open any IGN video, click the embed video button and then click the IGN Format tab and copy the code between the two tags [ignvideo] and [/ignvideo] with the exception of object_ID=.

Example: [ignvideo]object_ID=491519&downloadURL=http://moviesmovies.ign.com/movies/video/article/795/795922/diehard_maggiedies_061207_flvlowwide.flv[/ignvideo]

Would become: [ign]491519&downloadURL=http://moviesmovies.ign.com/movies/video/article/795/795922/diehard_maggiedies_061207_flvlowwide.flv[/ign]

How do I install?

Go to BBCode > Add new BB Code in your Admin CP and copy the following:

Title: IGN Movie Trailers

Tag: ign

Description: Embed movie trailers from IGN.

Replacement: (Updated) Example: (Updated) [ign]491519&downloadURL=http://moviesmovies.ign.com/movies/video/article/779/779137/livefree_diehard_040907_flvlowwide.flv[/ign]

Icon is attached below for use with this BB Code.

Please click install if you use this as it lets me know how useful my mods are.

Awesome! Thank you very much for this, IH! ;)

Thanks a lot m8, appreciated :)

Quick question: I've placed <p align="center"> in the 'Replacement' Box to center the trailer in the middle of the thread, and it doesn't work...

Isn't better to pull the videos from iMac.com? :(

Hi, actually this messes up other bbcodes.... :(

Try putting <center> </center> and see if that works. Alternitively just use the center BB Code when posting the videos.

In what way? This should not mess up any other BB Code. Can you explain how?

BB Code has been updated. See first post for detials. This is a bug fix update.

In a nutshell: Re-do the replacement and example fields in the BB Code.

Thanks it works...
just a doubt... isn't easier to get the trailers from http://www.apple.com/trailers/ ???

Ok, something changed for IGN Movie Trailers???:(

Cause it doesn't work anymore for me...

Sorry to write off topic but since it is mentioned I am interested is it against copyright rules or any other law to embed trailers from apple.com, I just tried bbcode for quicktime and it works fine, it would really look nice in posts?
