Adding video to threads without using HTML code?
 

We're currently on vb version 3.8.6. I am trying to add a short 2 minute or so video from Koldkast TV to a thread. Is there any way to do this without using the HTML code?

The only other way would be to create some BBCode that will do this for you.

Okay I know how to create bb code, but before I move forward...would this require some sort of special plugin or mod considering it's for videos and not for text or anything?

I don't see why. I mean, there is bbcode you can add for youtube, so why not for whatever video site you are using?

I took a quick look at koldcast, it definitely will work with a BB Code. If you have any problems post back and I'll help you with it.

Okay I need a bit of help.


For the Kold Cast thing I put...


For Replacement:

Code:

---

<object width="600" height="338"><param name="movie" value="http://www.koldcast.tv/EmbeddedVideoPlayer.swf?video=dont_you_forget_about_me"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.koldcast.tv/EmbeddedVideoPlayer.swf?video=dont_you_forget_about_me" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" wmode="transparent" width="600" height="338"></embed></object>

For Example: http://www.koldcast.tv/video/dont_you_forget_about_me




Didn't come up in the box after I saved it so I assume it didn't work.

The BB Code Replacement is:
and you would call it with:

[koldcast]dont_you_forget_about_me[/koldcast]

Worked. Thank you!:)
