BB Code Enhancements - AME3 - Auto Media Embeding and Video Extender

From the makers of Smooth and Jazz comes the singing sensation my mom has been waiting months for:

AME3. Bigger. Badder. Bestest.

NOTE ABOUT vB4.0.3: ------------------------------------------------------------

vBulletin 4.0.3 has changed the way video codes are handled and in the process, inadvertently broke AME3. I have submitted a bug report and believe that the issue will be quickly resolved. There is a manual fix you can apply for 4.0.3 here in the interim.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

AME3 is the sequel to the multi award winning AME 1x and AME 2x systems. AME3. This time, its different.

Vote for AME3 as MotM!

If you like AME3, you'll love AME'fy for your profiles!

AME3 does 3 things:

• It allows users to simply paste URLs into their message without having to use the video bbcode or video popup box.
• It allows you to add, edit and customise the video definitions that ship with vB4
• It allows you to import community created definitions to extend the system in ways you otherwise couldn't.

Now you can use AME anywhere you can use video bbcode: posts, blogs, visitor messages, the CMS, etc...

Note that I am releasing this early for beta testing and general feedback. There is currently a bug in RC2, RC4 and 4.0.0 that will prevent AME from working however there is a workaround posted below.

I have written a pretty comprehensive readme and attached it seperatly to this post. I suspect both this post and the readme will get updated as AME3 becomes finalised.

Negative on the reinstall.



Btw, when it's "installed", you can't even make a post, it shows the same error.

do you have the file cache on?

[movslow]

Tried again, this time I didn't set the cache, left it NO, the TEST worked ok?

FYI, I have the VB4 Supercharged caching system installed if that matters.

[The Geek]

hmmmm. What happens if you disable it and turn on the cache?

[The Geek]

Actually... Ill bet cold hard cache (see what I did there? A pun!) that the ame_prep.php file in your file cache folder is the one that should go into the includes folder.

That would cause this problem.

Delete any *.php file in your ame cache folder and resave your settings

It's working, for new video's, but I haven't turned on the ame cache, or rebuilt any previous video urls from the old ame 2.5x

[movslow]

Turned on ame file cache, same error occured.

Turned it off, back to working fine.

Thoughts?

My amecache folder is empty.

All files are where they need to go.

If I go to tools and update file cache, it comes back w/could not find ame_saved, of course this is with the cache turned off.

Yes, I am positive that you have accidently copied the includes/ame_prep.php file into the ame folder which has overwritten the cache file with a code file.

Partly my mistake for naming them both ame_cache.php
I have renamed the cache file for the next release.

By default, the ame cache folder is located in your forum directory and it is called ame. If that is still the location of your file cache, delete the ame_prep.php file in there and resave your settings.

amecache is the OLD ame file cache folder. Is there any way you can PM me a temporary admincp account?
