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.

no this is not possible, if they really need to just post a link then they can use a site like http://tinyurl.com/ . The whole point of this mod is to parse every video link into an embed.

Example: Post this video to your Forum, and it will not work: http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...arch&plindex=1

The video really is this one:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rEg_9mQQmo

this is something that would be hard to fix. there is no difference from a normal google video url and a youtube google video url. Which makes it impossible to detect which url is which. Easiest thing to do would be to disable google or tell your members why google links act up and make them actually put in the direct url.
