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:
Quote:
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:
Quote:
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.

Not sure about the thumb for the local files. They don't have thumb nails by default. You would have to create one.
That is fine. I wouldn't mind because we will only have a limited amount of local videos anyways and they would be content posts, not video sharing. So if you could give me some html so Anymedia will grab the title and thumbnail it would be great. Either way I will take a look at it. Thanks!
Redownload the file and upload files and import it again. I fixed that right away. That krumo function i use for testing.
ok. that worked thanx!! will continue testing to make sure no other issue.
Great job so far.
voted for you for mod of the month.
SUGGESTION: make the player title (ie: Anymedia Player v3.02 or whatever we name it) appear in the actual title bar area of the player. Also same for video title -- not just next to the thumbnail.)
QUESTION: can one turn it OFF for inline but ON for attachment use? (ie: if I want to use anymedia for when someone uploads a file...but not for linking in youtube etc).
Yea you can turn video sites off or turn all video sites off. But other media types will still work.
1. ah I get it cool. so I can turn off individual sites and it'll still work for the others.
awesome!! (the point is some sites I think I want AME to pick up. Though I want most with AnyMedia and for attachments.)
(edit:
* ok tried disabling individual ones -- didn't work. AnyMedia still picks em up.
* AND then tried disable globally (Enable Video Sites Globally) and still AnyMedia still picks em up. ie. disabling doesn't seem to actually do anything. At least its working...but now toooo well. lol)
2. Different question:
* in the ADminCP:

Supported extensions for Image File
This setting allows you to enable and disable various extensions for Image.
I have this set to YES. Doesn't this mean "regular" image attachments will use AnyMedia Player? (eg: upload an image and anymedia player detects and kicks in? like with mp3 files?)
If so, it doesn't seem to do anything. attached images behave as normal (just open in regular new window).
Images work as attachments in the version I have on my test server. When I release this I try just to put a few added features back in to see how it goes. I planned on have more updates out but this has been a bad week for me. My dad is dying and I'm going to be looking for a new job in 2 months after 13 years of the Air Force.

I'm sorry to hear to that nix. I hope he gets better and it works out for you.
so just put mine in the list for when you get around to it:
1. disable not working right
2. attachments not working for images
Life and family first... so take your time and do what you gotta do. Its amazing work you do here ..and for free!! We'll be here annoying you with requests and bugs when you get back. heh. hang in there and thanks again.
