Some things I think could be better. So here are my opinion/feedback to help you improve this mod.
(I hope my opinion could help a llittle bit more to implementation) :-)
1) The video/audio player could be "in post" and not external. It is beautifull to darken the forum and apear the video but not so functional. (it requires more clicks) (or administrator could choose the best for him and his forum. In post or like it is right now.
2) Preview image of the video is too small I believe that it is better to have the preview of video as it is in an existing youtube mod I have installed. (or/and admin can change the resolution of video preview and the image preview)
3) Mod works automatically in Advanced Post Editor, but in Quick reply it dont work. (I had to edit my post in Advanced Post Editor, so the plugin could work.
4) I tried to play DivX video from my server and I heard only sound. The screen was just green.!! (a mozzilla plugin installed to my pc too so I can play DivX through my browser . (I didn't restart my machine after the divx Plugin installation to check it out further). (does it play both divx and Xvid?)
5) Maybe an option to enable / disable the automatic function of the plugin and a button to disable the function to a specific link?? (suppleness) :-)
6) When i tried to play Mp3 from my server, my board seemed to stuck (my server for hosting the last two days have some kind of disfunctionality in Database, so I cant be sure if the above is a fault of the plugin or from my server.
I uploaded manually (not using the forum) a TEST.mp3 to my servers FTP and i tried to play the mp3 through a post but i writed "test.mp3" (not capital letters). Ok. It is natural that it didn't work. But...when I renamed my file to TEST.mp3, the hole forum stucked...(For me)!!!
So using the "back" buttons from my browser, i tried to edit my post and remove the mp3 line i had...!! Then it corrected the error. (I repeat, I noticed that my server had some database functionality issues the last two days, so I can't verify if that is an error of the mod or an error from my host company that specific moment....!!!) anyway, forum is working perfect now and I have no problems at all..!!! :-)

That's all my feedback for now relative to that beautiful mod, I hope I helped a bit!!! ;-)
I believe that it is a very nice plugin and that you should improve it..!!! (I think that it is very useful to have)

Looking forward for improvements of that module, so I can use it to my forum.!!! :-)
Thanks for your mod!!! :-)


Ps: Sorry for my bad English. :-)

1. It already does that. You uninstalled it to fast. Looked in Goldbrick Options for the settings.

2. You can change the thumbnail size in the gb.css file. If you use the option that you wanted in question 1 it wont matter.

3. I know. I have to add it.

4. Divix works fine for me. If you find something that doesn't play PM me a link and I'll take a look.

5. Not sure what you mean.

6. The link to the mp3 should still be in this format, http://myserver.com/test.mp3

Also move your attachments from the database to the file system. You don't want large attachments like that in your database.
