the object is 250px width, 150px height,
it'll NOT autostart but will repeat for 3 times.

the object is 400px width, 480px height,
and it'll NOT autostart.

[MEDIA=421,211]http://server/file.pdf[/MEDIA]
It will post the pdf object on the page,

@ Frequently Asked Questions
---------------------------------
Q: I got white screen when playing a google video.
A: AnyMedia fetch the correct video url, but there's sth wrong with the flvplayer.swf, try to refresh the page to solve it.

Q: When using mp3player.swf to play mp3, it's played fast/slowly.
A: Flash doesn't support vbr (variable bit rate) mp3 files.It only support a mp3 with a fixed bitrate of 64/96/128 kbps ,a sample frequency of 22.05kHz and joint stereo. To solve it, turn the option off in admincp to make it be played by WMP.

Q: I have to click play button twice to play a google video.
A: Emmm... Even using the google player, you also have to click twice. I don't know why, and I'm trying to fixed it. If you know, just tell me.

Q: The supported extensions checkbox are always unchecked even if I check them all.
A: The permission cache is not updated. Overwrite the 'includes/xml/bitfield_anymedia.xml' file, and log into your admincp to visit 'admincp/index.php?do=buildbitfields' to rebuild the permission cache.

Q: When I use build-in player to play Youtube, it will be loading all the time.
A: To use the build-in player to play Youtube videos, your server have to enable the 'allow_url_fopen' option, or enable the 'fsockopen / curl_init' functions. If failed, turn the 'Use AnyMedia Player for Youtube Video' option off in admincp.

Q: I cannot get the PPLive working with my Firefox or etc.
A: As far as I know, the pplive object can only work with IE. And if you know how to embed it on FireFox, just tell me.

@ Todo

I DO NOT know whether I should update the hack.
I'm not a coder of vBulletin-Chinese Team now, as I left there weeks ago.
Sorry about this, and I'll tell you how the update's going if it's really on the way.

[akanevsky]

Great, will install later.

[docvader]

Understand.

Since I'm technologically impaired here, can you please tell me what code to alter to force the browsers to use WMP for all the video files (mpeg and mpg).

And what part of China are you in? I've traveled the country extensively.

Thanks!

Edit the Code in class_bbcode.php

Search:

PHP Code:

                    case 'mpeg':
                    case 'mpg':
                    case 'm1s':
                    case 'm1v':
                    case 'm1a':
                    case 'm75':
                    case 'm15':
                    case 'mp2':
                    case 'mpm':
                    case 'mpv':
                    case 'mpa':
                        $media['mime']='video/x-mpeg';
                        $media['type']='quick_time';
                        break; 


Replace with

PHP Code:

                    case 'mpeg':
                    case 'mpg':
                    case 'm1s':
                    case 'm1v':
                    case 'm1a':
                    case 'm75':
                    case 'm15':
                    case 'mp2':
                    case 'mpm':
                    case 'mpv':
                    case 'mpa':
                        $media['mime']='video/x-mpeg';
                        $media['type']='windows_media';
                        break; 


Done.


I Live in Wuhan,
do you know it?

[docvader]

OK, got it. Still doesn't work, but it's calling to windows media player in my source

case 'mpeg':
case 'mpg':
case 'm1s':
case 'm1v':
case 'm1a':
case 'm75':
case 'm15':
case 'mp2':
case 'mpm':
case 'mpv':
case 'mpa':
$media['mime']='video/mpeg';
$media['type']='windows_media';

Used mime type 'video/x-mpeg' also, to no avail. (I use 'video/mpeg', and other hacks work with this no problem)

Is there somewhere else (forum permissios) that I need to look at? I have overlooked something, somewhere, and I just know that it has to be something really simple... Usergroup permissions are set.

Never been to Wuhan. I train in gong fu in Henan, and have traveled western, northern, and a bit of eastern China quite a bit. Wonderful country. Just some absolutely incredible places to see and experience, especially Yunnan.

Thanks!

With 8 million people and lots of universities and a French consulate, Wuhan is a big industrial city in the central China, like Chicago in US.

As to gong fu, you have made the right choice: Henan

It's a Mozilla thing. I've done some investigating here, hope this helps:

When using Mozilla based Netscape Navigator

Pagesource when I use [MEDIA=0,0,0,wmv]: This works well, though it autoplays when it was told not to:

<!-- Windows Media -->
<object data="http://www.russbo.org/files/video/military/wmpruss.mpeg" type="application/x-mplayer2" width="640" height="480" class="player_mozilla">
<param name="autoplay" value="false" />
</object>

<!--[if IE]>
<object classid="clsid:22D6F312-B0F6-11D0-94AB-0080C74C7E95" width="640" height="480">
<param name="autoplay" value="false" />
<param name="filename" value="http://www.russbo.org/files/video/military/wmpruss.mpeg" />
</object>
<![endif]-->

Pagesource when I use latest bbcode edited php file (to make it use WMP), your standard hack:This shows NO player and does not work:

<!-- Windows Media -->
<object data="http://www.russbo.org/files/video/military/wmpruss.mpeg" type="video/mpeg" width="640" height="480" class="player_mozilla">
<param name="autoplay" value="false" />
</object>

<!--[if IE]>
<object classid="clsid:22D6F312-B0F6-11D0-94AB-0080C74C7E95" width="640" height="480">
<param name="autoplay" value="false" />
<param name="filename" value="http://www.russbo.org/files/video/military/wmpruss.mpeg" />
</object>
<![endif]-->

When using Internet Explorer, your hack works perfectly, as written.

This is the page source:

<!-- Windows Media -->
<object data="http://www.russbo.org/files/video/military/wmpruss.mpeg" type="video/mpeg" width="640" height="480" class="player_mozilla">
<param name="autoplay" value="false" />
</object>
<!--[if IE]>
<object classid="clsid:22D6F312-B0F6-11D0-94AB-0080C74C7E95" width="640" height="480">
<param name="autoplay" value="false" />
<param name="filename" value="http://www.russbo.org/files/video/military/wmpruss.mpeg" />
</object>
<![endif]-->

It's a Mozilla thing. I don't know how to fix it, but, that's the problem.

Never been to Wuhan. Have a monk teacher/friend who teaches at their Wushu University there. I hear that it's an excellent sports university. My travels have taken me to Xinjiang, Yunnan, Tibet, Harbin, Xian, Huangshan/Guilin areas, among others. Definitelly have to return to Chengdu/Tibet/Yunnan part of your country. It is phenomenal!

[Crist]

I think you may add me to your msn list or etc.
I'll tell you how to handle the prob.

My contact method is in the zip file,
on the install guide page.

PS. I'm so glad to know that you like our country.
