Description:

This is unlike my past video mod which used bbcode, this one is more simple and works much better for the user too. What it does it parses the url when the post is viewed, so it will work with past links and new links.

right off the bat it removes the need to have VBSEO for titles.

here are a few key things for the new version:

+ little to no server stress upon page generation
+ better universal embedding system (globally add default settings)
+ globally control embed widths/heights
+ titles without vbseo
+ fixed all of the broken sites, and removed support for the sites that no longer exist or support embedding

ok, thanks for this

I only tested it with expertvillage's videos and I have one problem:

after I add the the link to a new thread and after submitting it, the video doesn't work, and it works only if I refresh the page, but if I post the link from quick reply, it works fine...

so how can I get over this issue? is there any way to turn around it?

thanks

Is there a way to post a youtube link simply as a link and not an embed for those videos where embedding has been disabled? Ive tried to write the link in different ways but (impressively) the mod insists on always recognizes it as a youtube link and embeds the blank vid.

[RCWF-AoD]

I've been having problems with a couple user posted youtube videos. I'm getting the video is no longer available message, and sometimes just a blank video box. I've found out why however. The video's that they have linked to have actually been moved from www.youtube.com/watchblahlah to something like this, http://ca.youtube.com/watchblahblah. Will this have any effect on PassiveVID Coders Shack? I'm just wondering. BTW LOVE the mod! It's the best ever!!!

Problem has decided. Simply has expelled a product and has delivered it anew. All has earned. Probably for the first time there was with what that a failure at installation.

[Coders Shack]

the new version im building is built ground up and it additionally supports these sites as of now (i basically went back about 40 pages and read what you all requested):

+ collegehumor
+ vimeo
+ gmx.net
+ mtv
+ revver
+ dailymotion
+ tudou
+ movieweb
+ youmaker

and theres a few sites i still need to add which require advanced methods:

+ megavideo
+ worldstarhiphop
+ tu.tv
+ blip
+ gofish
+ viddler
+ pornotube (had it before)
+ megarotic

after i finish adding these eight video sites, ill be working on a easier administration system for restricting and enabling on specific forums and usergroups.

it will be worth the wait trust me ;D
