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/

Man this thing is awesome - have you ever considered making something like this as a stand alone script? I'd purchase it instantaneously.

Just got notified of the update. I'm running 3.0.9.5. What do I have to do to upgrade? Do I uninstall and start all over again?

To see the M tag you need to to the template edits. But its not needed if you're not going to use attachments. I'll make this an automated process later so no template edits are needed.

Thanks! I still have a lot planned for it.

If they have no thumb either I didn't do them yet or more then likely they are near impossible to get working. If you don't see the default thumb and a red x thats different.

At the very least upload all the files and reimport the product and allow over-right. Or you can uninstall and reimport.
