Play FLV/MP4 Attachments!
 

First of all, you will need to create a new BB Code:

Login to your Administration Panel, find "Custom BB Codes" in the sidebar, click it. And click add new BB Code:

Title: attachvideo
BB Code Tag Name: attachvideo
Replacement:
Replace "yoursite.com" with the domain of your site.

It will give you this message:
"The following BB Code replacement may not be properly formed. All HTML attributes should be enclosed within double quotes. "

Click "Continue", since the BB Code will work without any problems...

Example:
[attachvideo]2322[/attachvideo]

Description:
With this BB Code you will be able to embed multiple videos that are uploaded as attachments.

Use {option}: No.

Remove Tag If Empty: Yes.

Disable BB Code Within This BB Code: Yes.
Disable Smilies Within This BB Code: Yes.


Save it...

Now, how to take out the attachment ID from the link?

Let's say that you uploaded some .flv file, when you hover over it, you'll see something similar to this:
http://yourdomain.com/attachment.php...1&d=1302358811

Part that you need is "2322"

Simply wrap it in:

[attachvideo]2322[/attachvideo]

You need JW Player for this, download it here:

http://www.longtailvideo.com/players/jw-flv-player/

Create a new folder in your public_html called "flashplayer", upload these files in it:
- jwplayer.js
- player.swf
- swfobject.js
- yt.swf

Enjoy! :)

My mistake.

Works great - thanks.

I added a small graphic for the button to make adding the code easier for myself!

@Octavius & Krusty
I'm glad you guys like it!

Adding the BB Code in the Editor is certainly a good option if you're using the vBulletin's Attachment system a lot. :)

If anyone needs help with getting it running on your forum, or modifying it feel free to reply here or to PM me.

many tanks bro work goooooooooood

Going to install this now tup1

So will it work for all video files? I know jwplayer plays alot of stuff... this is interesting..

@preemz10314
Video Formats: H.264 (.mp4, .mov, .f4v), FLV (.flv), 3GPP (.3gp, .3g2)

It can play all those formats, you just need them enabled in your Attachments option, to be recognized by the vBulletin's Attachment System.
