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.

So basically the user enters a video link in a post and its automaticly displayed as the actual embedded video.

Works With:

vBulletin [3.6.X to 3.7.0 beta 3]
vBlog [1.0.0 to 1.0.3]
vbAdvanced [3.0 RC2]

1. YouTube v1.0.0

3. MySpace Video v1.0.0
4. MetaCafe Video v1.0.0
5. Yahoo Video v1.0.1
6. Koreus Video v1.0.1
7. Sapo Video v1.0.1
8. video.google.co.uk v1.0.2
9. Live Leak v1.0.2
10. Photobucket v1.0.3
11. Gametrailers v1.0.3
12. MyVideo v1.0.4

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

+ 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

And it's totally acceptable a fee for your work - please let us know how we can buy this new version.

A small request - I don't find any mod/hack, bbcode 100% functional to view local FLV. You can make your next release do this?

Tks a lot

When this mod is enabled I get RSS errors like below.

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in [path]/includes/class_postbit_alt.php(468) : eval()'d code on line 26

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at [path]/includes/class_core.php:3239) in [path]/external.php on line 865

The first time I click on the RSS link I get the errors. If I click it a second time the RSS feed works perfectly. If I disable the mod, clear cache/cookies all RSS feeds from my site work perfectly the first time.

Anyone experience these errors? Great mod by the way.

Yeah I've experienced it, and I'll say the same thing here that I'll say at vb.com that you posted this on.

You went further than I did, because I couldn't figure out which add on was causing the problem.

I'm near depressed, cuz this is like my fave add on.

* boo hoo * :erm:

Hi Coders shack

Excellent mod!!

A few question for you:

1) I've added a youtube video to one of my posts but there is no sound - can you help?
http://www.phonedevil.com/f164/crazy...mping-dog-112/

2) Can you add YouPorn.com to the supported sites pls. Its a very popular site

3) How can i remove the click-thru for the video? (i.e. so that if you click on the video, it won't go through to the video website)

Many thanks!

Callum

new version is extremely close to release, this should be the week (depending how busy i am @ work).

its better than i thought it was going to be. (also there is nothing like it out there, the way it works is way different than the current way passivevid works)

[callumbush]

great news! does it solve my questions? (in the post before yours)

[needaltuna]

I wouldn't have any problem paying five bucks for the new release. But ten bucks would be too much by half when you consider that a topnotch add-on such as Flashchat costs only five and you get updates for life.

you site is login restricted, so i cant really see your first issue.

youporn.com may be added

the click through cant be removed because its actually part of youtubes swf
