Live Demo:

Passive Video 2.00

Full Version:

Get the full version of Passive Video 2.00 here

Description:

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!

Works With:

vBulletin [3.6.X to 3.7.2]
vBlog [1.0.0 to 1.0.3]
vbAdvanced [3.0 RC2]

I install this one but is not working?

[Subah]

Thanks a lot
Why is it VBkig 1.0.5 and vbAdvanced 3.0.1 not included ?

[gopherhockey]

May have already been asked, but I assume if we uninstall the older version (PassiveVid 1.1.2 is what I have) and install this that all older links to videos will still work without any modifications to older posts etc?

Thx.

note: ill make a more detailed post in the future

Ok some video sites like Break.com require more information that what is provided in the basic URL to create an Embed. In order to get this info your server snags it from the video site upon submission of a post or thread or edit.

So previous sites may not work yet, because i haven't added support for them.

One way to fix an old post @ the moment is to re-save it, and that would force the server to re-parse it.

I do plan on adding the ability to support the old URL format of 1.X

And your using Firefox? Hmmmm, I have 2GB of ram on this laptop.

I have another question. I use VBSEO on my site and some links get converted into descriptive URLs instead of embedded videos. I know this isn't really your problem but wondered if you had a quick fix?

Very nice, installed.

example post? for the vbseo issue?

my site uses vbseo too, it should work fine.

lol, I can't seem to get it to do it again... lol I must be going mad. Cheers for the great mod btw

[GrandHolyKing]

Great mod, love the title of the video above the embedded vid. If this does indeed pass the process onto the user and not the server then I'll be well chuffed!

Cheers!
