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/

hi guys ,

Just wondering if anyone can help me out ..

When posting URL's of a vid on site it comes up like the lad above mentioned ..Thumbnail etc ..
all is ok with some vids but for some reason the game trailers one wont work. I have not really tested other ones due to the fact we only mainly deal with a certain few sites really

e.g. if i post

http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=7d8NcRI4DHM <----- works fine and as it should

if i post

http://www.gametrailers.com/player/32309.html <----- nothing appears apart from link

I have also noticed if i edit the post where a video is posted the video wont show again.

any help would be great

Thankyou

I installed this wonderful mod but the player comes up, I click play and then nothing happens. It appears it is not loading the video.

I left it there for several minutes but nothing. I know the video works because I watch it on wordpress with a plugin that uses the same player you use.

I checked the file names and path and everything is fine.

The window comes up, I have to click play twice and then I see only a black screen and it does not load. It is a flash video, hosted on my server.

Any ideas? Thanks for the mod by the way...
