Major Additions - Goldbrick Audio/Video Media System

Goldbrick Media system for vBulletin 3.7

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,

nice and useful idea. But the following things keep me from using it:

1. I don`t want to add 60+ KB of js to my forum pages just to enable my users to view the videos

2. I need the embedding of e. g. youtube vids to be independent of JavaScript

3. I`d like to be able to modify the HTML used for the embedding in Template and not having to modify the xml or php files to do it

4. I`d like to be able to enable/disable external media sites like porntube etc.

So I`ll stick to custom bbcode until these features are added or I found out how to add them myself.

all the best,
Sacha

I installed GoldBrick and now when i put in a youtube trailer, just the link shows up and not the video.
Thanks,

Ok got the Video to show up but I have to edit the thread again and when I save the thread an error comes up real quick then goes away. Then the trailer video shows up and plays fine. Any way not to have to edit the thread again?
