Another suggestion to the addon-author: you could parse the video-ID of Youtube-videos from Youtube-URLs with this little function (that I have found using Google) which will make it much more intuitive for users to add a youtube-link to their ride-profile because they no longer will have to add the exact embed url and can also add the usual URL from their browser's address bar:

PHP Code:

/*
 * Function to parse the id from all different types of Youtube Embed Codes and Youtube Urls
 *
 * @author Andreas Grundner
 * @date 22.07.2011
 * @licence freeware
 * @param string youtube url, embed code, share code, channel code ...
 * @return string youtube_id
 */
function getYoutubeId($sYoutubeUrl) {
 
    # set to zero
    $youtube_id = "";
    $sYoutubeUrl = trim($sYoutubeUrl);
 
    # the User entered only the eleven chars long id, Case 1
    if(strlen($sYoutubeUrl) === 11) {
        $youtube_id = $sYoutubeUrl;
        return $sYoutubeUrl;
    }
 
    # the User entered a Url
    else {
 
        # try to get all Cases
        if (preg_match('~(?:youtube.com/(?:user/.+/|(?:v|e(?:mbed)?)/|.*[?&]v=)|youtu.be/)([^"&?/ ]{11})~i', $sYoutubeUrl, $match)) {
            $youtube_id = $match[1];
            return $youtube_id;
        }
        # try to get some other channel codes, and fallback extractor
        elseif(preg_match('~http://www.youtube.com/v/([A-Za-z0-9-_]+).+?|embed/([0-9A-Za-z-_]{11})|watch?v=([0-9A-Za-z-_]{11})|#.*/([0-9A-Za-z-_]{11})~si', $sYoutubeUrl, $match)) {
 
            for ($i=1; $i<=4; $i++) {
                if (strlen($match[$i])==11) {
                    $youtube_id = $match[$i];
                    break;
                }
            }
            return $youtube_id;
        }
        else {
            $youtube_id = "No valid YoutubeId extracted";
            return $youtube_id;
        }
    }
} 


If you want to call this function in vbrides.php, do it this way:

PHP Code:

$html_video .= '<iframe width="280" height="158" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/' . getYoutubeId($ride['video']) . '" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>';
