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.

is there a different ame for 4.1.5 ??

I used the Rebuilding and Converting Tools and it removed my ame codes and turned the youtube videos into links and not embedding into the post.

I did select the AME upgrade option. How can I get them to show up as embedded?

I am using the default definitions that come with AME.

My members are mad that the videos are no longer embedded.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

Sadly, I think it's broken pretty much all the way around.

The Geek left before this was able to be updated for most of the 4.1 series. So that's not surprising. I would like to try redesigning it.

There are fixes all over this thread people! Even in the original post.

The fixes are conditional on a lot of things. Some, for example, don't work on certain versions of 4.x. Besides, it's always better for "fixes" to be part of the actual product, which is what I'm getting at.

While I agree with the idea that it should be rolled into the product, I've used this mod with every version of vB 4.x up to and including the current one.

In fact, if the plugin that is posted in this thread is added, one doesn't even need to do the file edit after every upgrade. Why not re-release it with that plugin added?

Mainly, I've been waiting to see if I could address the issues of new definitions not taking. I don't think anyone has posted that yet. But, yeah, I could probably look through all the posts over the next couple of nights and see if I can bundle all the fixes into one product.

I'm sure The Geek would have wanted it that way. ("Really?" "No, not really. I can't back that up.")
