AME - Auto Media Embedding (youtube, Amazon, google, myspace, etc...)
Developer Last Online: Jan 2019
From the inventors of Swiss Cheese and the Egg comes AME - The Automatic Media Embedding System.
Note that Version 2.0.0 can be found here AME is derived from GAL 6 base code but instead of linking keywords, it converts URLs that users paste or enter in their posts into inline embedded video streams. Big credit goes out to mfyvie for the original concept that jazzed me up enough to lift code that I have been working on to radically improve his fresh idea. Though the same goal, I have taken a totally different approach to his initial release. This mod is 100% steaming fresh code straight from the Geeks oven of love. First... the overview AME scans new and edited posts for pre-defined patterns of URLs (i.e. youtube's). If it finds a match, it swaps the url tag for an ame tag. When a post get parsed for bbcode and an ame tag is found, instead of hammering away at the post with umpteen bbcodes, AME quietly figures out which pre-defined embedding should be placed there and... viola', you have a pretty little embedded video like this: Attachment 66927 This is significantly faster, has much lower overhead and is much easier to manage than loads of bbcodes or a than scanning every single post as the user views it to see if there are any conversions that need to be made. Now for the bells and whistles AME:
Add ons AME comes configured with YouTube, Myspacetv, Google Video, Bolt, iFilm, Yahoo, Dailymotion, Amazon and MetaCafe Support built in. Since the amount of providers are always changing and most sites will only need a particular amount, AME has been designed with an import and export system to allow members to easily share formats with one another. In fact, the second post of this thread is updated periodically to relflect those add ons. Currently there are over 12 more additional formats contributed by AME users. Click here to see them.

Troubleshooting See this post on troubleshooting A note about support and such I have my plate pretty full with taking care of my commercial mods and the support that comes with them. Saying that, I will help when I can - but to be honest, I have ensured that there should be little to no support needed on this mod as it is very much self contained. Please do not PM or post asking me to give you regexp's to support additional media streams. I built the system so that you can add your own providers as well as the ability to import and export them. If you still need a pattern but are not great with regular expressions (who is?) then I suggest getting RegExpBuddy. Although I am not expert at regular expressions, I did a quick start tutorial on AME regexps here if you want to check it out. I don't mind you guys asking amongst each other for these things, but just note that I will most likely not respond to the requests. I will reserve the first couple of posts in this thread to periodically add user contributed patterns to import and for additional information (I hate mega long first post's in the release section). So check there for up to date information. nJoy Show Your Support

I've made a solution for playing FLV files with JW FLV Player - this needs to be installed on your server though (still it's nice to stay within AME rather than use more resources for another media playing solution to play FLV) - so download the player and put it in a folder called "jw_flv_player" in your forum root directory, then install the xml as normal it it should work fine
I've also updated the quicktime support so that it correctly scales the video to fit the player - this prevents the issue of higher res files pushing the controls off the bottom of the player. Hope these are useful to someone. (any help with blip.tv support would be much appreciated) |

quicktime is just an import of the xml - overwrite if you've already imported the quicktime xml from the first page of this thread
hope it's useful |

Is anyone else having an issue with this on 3.7.0 beta2 ? I updated my forums this morning and AME no longer processes new youtube (or any) links in posts.
