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.

• 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/

Is there a way to make the media player work inside a profile user field?

I'm going to add that in. Have it post the latest 5 vids or something like that.

Yea thanks for the post. This is fixed and I'll have a release out in the next couple of days. I can post a quick fix if you need one.

after I upgraded to the new version I am not seeing the M button on my forum anymore...
the tag still works fine, for the medias I had already posted, but it doesn't seem to work for new messages...
I checked the permissions and saved them once again... and it didn't solve the problem...

[nix]

you don't really need the button anymore. But just upgrading wont take them away. If you still want the button check your edits again. Also check usergroup and forum permissons.

everything except the mp3's(i think it has to do with the xeon mp3 player) were working until tonight, now i get this error trying to play a video "2You need to upgrade your Flash Player2". If I click on the non-working mp3 player it displays this now also "1You need to upgrade your Flash Player1"

[nix]

That 2 and 1 thing was me testing in the templates. You should only see that if you have js disabled. Try a hard refresh on the page. If that doesn't fix it you can PM your forum details and I'll look at it for you.

[bostton1]

that fixed it.

Thanks for your great support and awesome product.
