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.

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

http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fu...deoid=12277493 should work.

[SpreadingLight]

it's not working on my pages. is there a way to get them to work?

[Coders Shack]

i see the problem.
go to the passiveVid - Global Array plugin find this line (under // myspace):

PHP Code:

'string' => '#'.$urlrx[0].'vids.myspace.com/index.cfm\?fuseaction=vids\.individual&VideoID=(\d{8,15})(?:[^"]+)?'.$urlrx[1].'#', 


and add an "i" after the # sign so it should look like this:

PHP Code:

'string' => '#'.$urlrx[0].'vids.myspace.com/index.cfm\?fuseaction=vids\.individual&VideoID=(\d{8,15})(?:[^"]+)?'.$urlrx[1].'#i', 


[SpreadingLight]

i tried that for the first array, and the first and second, and the video still isn't embedding

i found some things, like the extra

vids\.individual&VideoID

where the blue and the capitalized VideoID wasn't the same as the original myspace code. i tried changing it, but it didn't fix the embedding.

wmode="opaque" was also not in the original myspace code.

i don't know the coding, but i can look for patterns and look for something that doesn't match.

also the mode="opaque" is in two different places in the code, for each array

[Coders Shack]

i got it to work with the fix i posted above. and it is because of the lower case videoid

[raja811]

thanks,how to change height,width . how to hide that showed links in frame header and display my info??????????????

[Coders Shack]

you edit the custom replacement to change the display, you however cant change the height/width though because each service uses a different size.

[SpreadingLight]

got it, with the "i". It didn't embed the already posted urls, but it works for new ones.

excellent, thanks again

gday, and thanks for the awesome product,

ive installed the "product-passiveVid" XML file- via product upload, and I can now embed videos on the forum.

however when i try to install "bitfield_passiveVid" XML file, it says "Invalid File Specified".

and in the passiveVid setting i cant select what site to approve/disapprove:

Allowed Sites
Select which site urls you would like to enable auto url embeding on. An error occured while processing the bitfield files, the following information was returned:

what have i done wrong? - what do i need to do?

i did previously have vbtubepro installed - but i cannot delete for some reason....
