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
---------------------------------
1. Add a Playlist.
2. Integrate it with CMPS, Link & Download Sys, and etc.
3. read ID3 tag.

@ Notes
---------------------------------
1. We need other translations, if you made one, just PM me.

If you like the hack, Please click .

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.

[syrus.xl]

Ah, I found out why I couldn't see the template edits in your install read me. All I could see was the edits but not where they actually are supposed to be done.

They don't show up in Internet Explorer 7.0 - it was fine once I switched to Firefox. For some reason IE 7 wasn't pulling in the js files.

Now perhaps I might be able to get this hack working. Only testing it for now, because of all the prolems other people seem to be having on here. I'll report back if I get this working.

[d8tabyte]

I can not get Utube to work either - everything else seems to be ok - I know you had issues with Utube, so I am not piling on that bandwagon, just letting you know there is an issue.

For right now, it is serving its purpose

[EatMe]

its official site: http://www.PPLive.com
and there's a download link: http://ftp13-idc.pconline.com.cn/pub...)_PConline.exe
IMPORTANT: you wmp version must beyond 9.0

2.find a channel code, such as the one I posted before.
and post it in your forum.

3.waiting for it buffer to 100%, and it will autostart

here's the snap:
Attachment 49346

I don't get it.

1. install software local? how does help playing in the anymedia bbcode?
I installed it anyway to try.... but didn't do anything. All I have now is a player installed on my computer that I can't read (menus in english, but all the content is still in Chinese )

so will all forums membres who want to view have to install pplive?

2. how do you find a channel code? its all in chinese. can't I just repost the one you posted and will it work?

3. never got past step 1& 2 to test.

3.0.4 fixed the issue.
make sure you overwrite all the required files
and if google banned the iPs of your location,
just turn the proxy option on in your admincp.

don't know if its just my comp. but redid everyone AGAIN. and got the same problem. HOWEVER, the only way it fixed itself (this and otehr google videas) was "resaving" them. :/ ie: edit the post and resave it.

can't do that for all of em (too many)...but there it is.

-------

I asked a while back about incorporating teh LDM (Links and Download Manager) jukebox into this for nice cross-hack integration. you said you'd see about it.

any chance you had time to look at that?

anyway... still AWESOME hack and looks to be a shooo win for the HACK OF THE MONTH. heck this is should be standard feature for vb.

[dacho]

Crist maybe you can adding a support for winamp link stream to it?
link like : http://3454689651:8989/listen.pls

[syrus.xl]

Well, I did say I'd report back regarding this hack. After a few hiccups I finally got it working with no problems.

However, on a test install using vBulletin 3.6 beta 1 doesn't work, you cannot save settings in AdminCP.

I tried again but under vBulletin 3.5.4 on another test installation, and voila it worked first time. This is one mod I would like to see in vBulletin 3.6 - when the full version is released.

Nice work! Now I'll click install..

[sandrodz]

It says, "Unsuported media type" on all google videos what am I doing wrong? I did fresh installation of a new version.

[ChiliVB]

Crist,

Is it possible to play movies from Warcraftcinema.com with your flash player so they can be embedded in a post?

I've tried entering options and various ways of entering the location but get "unsupported media type".

This is a link to an example: http://www.warcraftcinema.com/001200...r1Quests.movie

This is the flv info in the View Source on that page: http://www.warcraftcinema.com/flvpla...20062001000269

If I enter the link above the move starts in the browser.

Sorry for a noob question if there is something obvious I'm overlooking.
