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.

anyone test with 4.0.2?

I thought with a previous version of this mod, you were able to set different sizes for the videos to be parsed? That way links to videos in a signature were shown nice and small, while in a topic they could be the normal size.

Is that feature coming back? If not, how can I disable this mod from parsing youtube links in signatures to fullsize videos?

Check the readme. Add the files and import the product.

I haven't but haven't heard any grumblings. Considering the install count, I would of

You were, however all video parsing was previously done by AME. Now its handled by vB and there is currently no way to parse differently depending on the section. Saying that, I assume you could use some CSS much in the way I do for AME'fy or vB uses for the preview part of the CMS.

Hi

I just installed it on vb 4.0.2, it does work on threads in forum, but it doesnt work on cms.
I just added this code "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLVtAZQixOA" to an article, but after I save and publish the code is changed to "[video=youtube;ZLVtAZQixOA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLVtAZQixOA[/video]"
but the video doesnt appear in article preview, but it does appear inside article, in article preview it shows the link to the video though.

I have done everything according to manual, please tell me howto fix this in cms as well.

If the URL is vhanged to the [VIDEO] code as above, then AME3 worked as that is what it does. After that, its up to vB to do the rest? Are you sure that the output isn't getting truncated by vB for the preview? In other words, if you put that as the very first line in the article, does it show?

I have tried with it as the only thing in article, on first line.
With text before and with text after.
Still no luck, probably a vb issue then.
Either way, you have any idea howto fix it?

[The Geek]

None. If you use vB's button to put the media code in... does it work?

Can you aslo pls click install?

[nekiw]

If I use VB button I get the preview video on cms front, but still the textlink to the video also appears.
so it seem that is something with vb and something with your mod.
