BB Code Enhancements - AME3 - Auto Media Embeding and Video Extender

From the makers of Smooth and Jazz comes the singing sensation my mom has been waiting months for:

AME3. Bigger. Badder. Bestest.

NOTE ABOUT vB4.0.3: ------------------------------------------------------------

vBulletin 4.0.3 has changed the way video codes are handled and in the process, inadvertently broke AME3. I have submitted a bug report and believe that the issue will be quickly resolved. There is a manual fix you can apply for 4.0.3 here in the interim.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

AME3 is the sequel to the multi award winning AME 1x and AME 2x systems. AME3. This time, its different.

Vote for AME3 as MotM!

If you like AME3, you'll love AME'fy for your profiles!

AME3 does 3 things:

• It allows users to simply paste URLs into their message without having to use the video bbcode or video popup box.
• It allows you to add, edit and customise the video definitions that ship with vB4
• It allows you to import community created definitions to extend the system in ways you otherwise couldn't.

Now you can use AME anywhere you can use video bbcode: posts, blogs, visitor messages, the CMS, etc...

Note that I am releasing this early for beta testing and general feedback. There is currently a bug in RC2, RC4 and 4.0.0 that will prevent AME from working however there is a workaround posted below.

I have written a pretty comprehensive readme and attached it seperatly to this post. I suspect both this post and the readme will get updated as AME3 becomes finalised.

I'm sure The Geek would have wanted it that way. ("Really?" "No, not really. I can't back that up.")

Well, here's the plugin fix that I was referring to. Although I'm sure you already knew about it...

If anyone has an up to date vB 4 test installation that I could work on, that would be great. I won't have my own for quite a few months and can only test on a very early version of 4.0.

I can probably get one setup for ya this week if you'd like.

That would be great. Thanks. Mine is from prior to the necessary hook being added and I won't be able to upgrade until around February or later.

I have one that's sort of "out-of-the-box" ready, so I've sent DJ login details. I went ahead and upgraded that one to 4.1.6 over the weekend, so he should be able to test on it in an "ideal" situation.

Awesome. Thanks man! Hopefully DJ will have some time to get all this stuff back to working!

PM received. Thanks, Adam. As soon as I finish up with some 2.5 definitions I've been working on this week, I'll head on over to the test board and see what I can do for AME 3. Is this board running AME 3 with, or without, the fixes posted in this thread?
