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/

when I post the youtube links they are automatically being turned into the MEDIA tag, but for some reason the script is not handling them properly...

worked out after reseting all forum and all user group permissions (kind of pain in the *** to do that with 30 UG + Forums), but solved my problem

now I got this error:

Database error in vBulletin 3.6.8:

Is there any way you can make the embed code automatically converted to media bbcode? Also, godtube.com doesn't seem to work right. Its shows the thumbnail, but it asks to open in a local program of choice.

[nix]

For the link all you need to do is post it. It will convert it for you. So no need for the embed code. Godtube was working fine on my test site. What link where you trying to use?

[Chadi]

I used this and it showed up as text link (vbulletin's default method)
