BB Code Enhancements - AME3 - Auto Media Embeding and Video Extender

From the makers of Smooth and Jazz comes the singing sensation my mom has been waiting months for:

AME3. Bigger. Badder. Bestest.

NOTE ABOUT vB4.0.3: ------------------------------------------------------------

vBulletin 4.0.3 has changed the way video codes are handled and in the process, inadvertently broke AME3. I have submitted a bug report and believe that the issue will be quickly resolved. There is a manual fix you can apply for 4.0.3 here in the interim.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

AME3 is the sequel to the multi award winning AME 1x and AME 2x systems. AME3. This time, its different.

Vote for AME3 as MotM!

If you like AME3, you'll love AME'fy for your profiles!

AME3 does 3 things:

• It allows users to simply paste URLs into their message without having to use the video bbcode or video popup box.
• It allows you to add, edit and customise the video definitions that ship with vB4
• It allows you to import community created definitions to extend the system in ways you otherwise couldn't.

Now you can use AME anywhere you can use video bbcode: posts, blogs, visitor messages, the CMS, etc...

Note that I am releasing this early for beta testing and general feedback. There is currently a bug in RC2, RC4 and 4.0.0 that will prevent AME from working however there is a workaround posted below.

I have written a pretty comprehensive readme and attached it seperatly to this post. I suspect both this post and the readme will get updated as AME3 becomes finalised.

Good morning and happy new year.
I've installed this wonderful plug in but it do not look like ok.
i do not see the functions actives to set to convert the link in video.
and i've modified the hook file in xml and also opened saved and recharged the plug in in pug in manager.
i use Vb4 PL1 and ame 3. beta 2a because i've tried to installed beta 3 and the system has crashed and i had to restore all.
i've read the instructions to update but . .

have you any suggest about this problem?

Hello everyone:

I need help with AME Regex URL. And I am willing to pay a reasonable fee for someone who can help. Here is what I need:

Any time AME sees an URL starting with "http://MySite.com/P/?" it then out put the entire url as a parameter. I will then put {vb:raw code} in a embed code.

For example, in this URL

PHP Code:

http://MySite.com/P/?@4ATsy4DPut4ELHH2qQtFpage_1_test&ZZ@4ATmv4DFyC4EEFc@4AWJg4BWWy1CTVO4DLvN4EByx1qJijpage3&ZZ@ 


It starts with

PHP Code:

http://MySite.com/P/? 


Then the whole URL is the parameter, nothing needs to be altered...

PHP Code:

http://MySite.com/P/?@4ATsy4DPut4ELHH2qQtFpage_1_test&ZZ@4ATmv4DFyC4EEFc@4AWJg4BWWy1CTVO4DLvN4EByx1qJijpage3&ZZ@ 


Thank you very much in advance and happy new year!

WC

ps. here is my older code which still work fine on the old forum:

([http://]*[a-z]*?[\.]?mysite\.com\/P\/[\w\/\-\%\?\@]+)

$p1 is the parameter; it will get the entire url

Well, I don't know what's changed in the new version of AME yet, but in the previous version, at least, you could just use something simple:

http://[\w.]*mysite\.com/P/\?[\w&;@]+

And just use $ameinfo[url] (I assume The Geek didn't change this in AME 3) for the URL. You don't need to escape every forward slash, and you don't need % or - unless you have some URLs that have those characters. If so, just add them to the last set of brackets. I'd recommend putting the dash last, as I've run into a couple of problems putting elsewhere in the brackets.

Sounds like you have the file cache on, but not a valid path (which is the second setting).

Try this, I don't have any embed code to go off of, but assume you can tweak if needed.

Note that because of the way vB4 deals with video parameters, you don't want a semi-colon in your parameter.

@DJ - Keep meaning to update the readme with an outline of the new formats, but keep getting side tracked

Because its really vB4 doing the video management, we are somewhat limited in some of the things we can do, but not many. The key restriction is that there can be only one parameter (and it can't contain a semicolon!). That parameter can be fetched from another site or from the URL. There are no other parameters that can be used in the embed code other than this parameter, so no titles, sizes, etc...

Il get to writing it soon enough!

You can try this one, though only tested it with one URL.
