New Posting Features - VB AnyMedia Player / Media Sites (youtube, google and many more)

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:

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:

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.

Goldbrick uses the following third party Products:

• Highslide Javascript. I've packaged it with the 3.1 download. Please read the license agreement on highlide's website. In short it's free for non-commercial use. http://vikjavev.no/highslide/
• - - -
• The media player and mp3 player are from http://www.jeroenwijering.com/

I use collapse and eLinks features

Btw, there is a '__MACOSX' folder in the 3.0.8 zip, I think you forget to delete that

I have a problem with .divx option, I check the box but when I click save, the that option is not saved :S, I can't enable .divx

[nix]

that setting isn't used yet. Probably wont need to.

I can't see the _macosx folders. The program I'm using to zip it is suppose to not include it. I"ll look into it.

REQUEST: bump! veoh.com

confirmation:
and I know media files (like mov, mp3, wmv) are covered in Christ's version.. .so I an assume they work with this one (not just posting flash video sites)?

[nix]

Yea they should all work. If not let me know.
