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've had this mod installed for a long time and working fine. But I would like to replace it with a more updated one.

On the Plugins Manager it is reported as:

AnyMedia BBCode 3.1.0.2

But I can't find this version on vbulletin.org, to know which files I have to uninstall and which changes to templates I have to reverse.

For anymedia I've been using the bbcode [media]. I would like a replacement product to maintain this legacy, so that old embeded videos posted in the forums keep their functionality.

Can anyone help?

How do you change the size of the flash player? I change the size in the admin options but nothing happens.

[marshal_ramdev]

thanks will try this one .

Has this stopped giving out titles for Youtube videos? Its not pulling them for me anymore.

[osso12]

im getting this You need to upgrade your Flash Player
What does that mean? It does it in IE, firefox, and google chrome.
Also, like the above user, changing dimensions in ACP does absoloutly nothing.

[BlackxRam]

Once the video is added to a post the dimensions cant be changed... but is there a fix for the submissions no longer grabbing video titles like on Youtube? I just gives the default text it wont put the title of the video in there anymore.

I see that support has stopped for this mod. I have few problems myself with this mod.

Can someone please help. The mod doesn't seem to be working.

Please give more instructions on how to install it
