Version 2.00 is a major step up from the older versions.
The main difference in 2.00 is the way it works, before PassiveVideo would make the server do all the work. Now 99% of the work is pushed onto the clients machine.
Another major difference is the amount of control Passive Video gives the Admin and User.
Oh and i almost forgot, the embedding is now done with swfObject 2.0 so now you can globally control settings like wmode and it should work in all browsers now.
Admins can now Enable/Disable videos per forum and per usergroup.
Users can now Enable/Disable video embedding too.
2.00 is a COMPLETE REWRITE!

Screen Shots: note: these are of Passive Video 2.0 not Passive Video Lite 2.00, so some features may be lacking in the lite version.
Im uninstalling it to. I get the double video youtube thing to and we shouldnt have to register to his forum inorder to get support. If he posts his mod here he should be able to support it here aswell.
ok, I figured it out. with this update I have to click on the insert link button, then copy & paste the code into it.
with 1.12 I could just copy & paste the url into the reply box.
working great now though.
thanks.
I'm not gonna switch from 1 to 2 if people have to use Insert Link. That is irrelevant in the long scheme of things since then it's requiring tags and BB code to post the video, which is not what the old version did.
That worried me when I saw it too, but I still haven't figured out what he meant by it, because it's simply not true.
There are other issues though. It's really odd how the coder seems to have bailed suddenly just after release.
Well he claimed he hadn't seen his woman in a while and I can understand that, but still if you're gonna sell something even at 5 bucks, it's gotta work. Plus I don't see why the upgrade of the product actually makes less things work. Especially if you bought the Pro version.
I only need cnn.com added and I'm set, we don't allow our users to have all the options this thing allows anyway, as we can't have porn stuff all over our site for example.
