Goldbrick Media system for vBulletin 3.6.x
Thanks to all who nominated or voted this for MOTM.
Some of you might be looking for Anymedia. Well this has replaced it. It's a total rewrite from the ground up. A huge thanks goes to Sir Adrian for creating the framework. He can't cook soup but he sure can code.
Why the name goldbrck?
From Wikipedia:
Quote:
Goldbricking, in today's terms, generally refers to staff who use their work internet access for personal reasons while maintaining the appearance of working.
From Urban Dictionary:
Quote:
Goldbricking: To loaf or goof around on the job. Supposedly an old union term describing laborers (or more specifically, bricklayers) who were going so slow, it was as if each brick were made of solid gold. One can alse be referred to as a "goldbricker".
Dude, I spent all day at work goldbricking - surfing the web, making long distance phone calls - basically just picking my ass.

godtube.com videos are all showing "thumbnail not available". Strangest part? Any video I post, it always shows this specific (yet awesome) video called "Life House Everything Skit" which I posted a few weeks ago. This is VERY weird!
Ok, I've been asking for help on this issue for nearly a month now and I feel like I'm getting ignored. I'll paypal someone $25 to *fix* this issue.
I'm not asking any longer after this. I'll just use something else if this doesn't get fixed. I've offered to pay at least.
Have you tried prayer?
Seriously though, the issue you are experiencing has nothing to do with the Anymedia Player. You can go ahead and use something else but you will get the same results.
It looks like the video site godtube.com is using a url rewrite to prevent embedding of specific videos. The way it works is, when an external referrer (your site) requests a video, the url of the video is replaced with the one you are seeing. Many sites do this so that you have to visit their site to view the videos or images. If you see the same video no matter what url you embed, then I guarantee you that godtube is using url rewrites to do this.
This has nothing to do with the way Anymedia works and anything else you use will give the same results.
Still having problems getting this to work on a 3.6.8patch2 installation, is anyone else having problems getting the newest AnyMedia version to work with this version of vBulletin?
