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/
• - - -
• The media player and mp3 player are from http://www.jeroenwijering.com/

Hi Nix,

Bit of a weird one ...

I get a blank page when I post a reply or New Thread. I hit refresh and I'm taken to the post.

I've uploaded all VB files again 3.6.9 - no change

I disable plugins/hooks in config.php - I still get te blank page.

I switch plugins hooks back on and disable all plugins individually - still get blank page.

Here's the weird bit ...

Every time I embed a video I don't get the blank page.

As I said I'm using vb3.6.9 & Goldbrick 1.5

You probably have display errors in PHP turned off. So I assume you don't have php 5?

[GrendelKhan{TSU]

any progress on a youtube like interface page? I still think that would put this into killer mod category.

Just added into a brand new fresh test install of vBulletin 3.7.0 Release Candidate 4

(We are using PHP Version 5.2.5)

All options are setup but still the links just sit as regular hyperlinks with no recognition by Goldbrick
