New Posting Features - VB AnyMedia Player / Media Sites (youtube, google and many more)

Goldbrick Media system for vBulletin 3.6.x

Thanks to all who nominated or voted this for MOTM.

Some of you might be looking for Anymedia. Well this has replaced it. It's a total rewrite from the ground up. A huge thanks goes to Sir Adrian for creating the framework. He can't cook soup but he sure can code.

Why the name goldbrck?

From Wikipedia:

Goldbricking, in today's terms, generally refers to staff who use their work internet access for personal reasons while maintaining the appearance of working.

From Urban Dictionary:

Goldbricking: To loaf or goof around on the job. Supposedly an old union term describing laborers (or more specifically, bricklayers) who were going so slow, it was as if each brick were made of solid gold. One can alse be referred to as a "goldbricker".

Dude, I spent all day at work goldbricking - surfing the web, making long distance phone calls - basically just picking my ass.

Goldbrick uses the following third party Products:

• Highslide Javascript. I've packaged it with the 3.1 download. Please read the license agreement on highlide's website. In short it's free for non-commercial use. http://vikjavev.no/highslide/
• - - -
• The media player and mp3 player are from http://www.jeroenwijering.com/

i have a question: now i've installed 2 anymedia products: anymedia player and goldbrick...

what should i do? do i have to uninstall anymedia?

i've disabled it, but after that all the tags media ended to work!

Uninstall anymedia and turn off your postcache. Browse for a bit and then turn it back on.

[rapidphim]

that's the only source that I could see when I viewed source. Also, can you please show me how to get rid of the title or make it shorter as in the image?

[nix]

dailymotion would be something like this.

http://www.dailymotion.com/us/featur...-ton-coeur_fun

You don't need to dig for the url, goldbrick does it for you.

Just edit the gb_player template for the titles.

[rapidphim]

Thanks Nix... However, when I viewed source, that is the only link I got... Also, in gb_player template, how I am going to bring the title either below or on top of goldbrickplay.gif? right now it laid next to the gif image.

Or If I want to remove the title, should I remove this

<if condition="$info[title]">$info[title]<else />click here to watch the video</if>

or I do need to do something in the option?

[higge]

Sorry for my dummy question but where do I upload files that are in zip?
I'd like to have this mod

No need to view source. Just post the link thats in your browser. Goldbrick does the rest.

Yes just delete that.

Unzip them and then just follow the folder structure to match your forums.

[higge]

But there is a folder called "players"... Where do I put that?

[nix]

in your forum folder.

[higge]

Thank you, just clicked "installed". This is just a fantastic mod. Thanks again

This isn't working for me

I tried this:

[media="545,390"]http://www.godtube.com/view_video.php?viewkey=fe6759705bbda4c232ec[/media]This is an amazing video clip, it will touch your heart.

Did not work. If I click edit, it shows the same without the = character for some reason. Bug?
