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.

Wow, working for me in 4.1.2... I used the edits listed earlier in the thread. What I'd like to see is more regexed code so I don't have to try to figure it out...

works fine with 4.1.2 and can we add videobb and megavideo definitions

Title: AME - Parse bbcode video
Execution Order: 1
Plugin Code:

global $vbulletin; 
require_once(DIR . '/includes/ame_prep.php'); 
$providers = ame_data_preparse($pagetext);

3. Plugin is active 'Yes'
4. Save


If you have cache enabled you might have to clear that.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. Now I never have to remember to do that stupid file edit again.

I really wish vb.org would add a user maintained wiki in the 2nd post like FatWallet and Slickdeals do. It would make user to user support sooooo much easier.

Great works on 4.1.2

Now my issue is that the google video, hulu, and a few others don’t work as easily as copy and paste. They just give the URL link. I still have to press the video button for this to work properly.

Any fixes or did I miss something?

Megavideo support would be great!

I installed AME3 a few months ago, and love it.

But now somehow it doesn't work, doesn't change the URLs, what can happened?
There wasn't any change ob the forum.
I uninstalled and reinstelled AME3, still doesn't work.

Interesting. It works well on my site still... If you are using version 4.1.2 you'll need to add the plugin listed a couple posts above. Other than that. What mods did you add afterward?

Yes, wiki is great for things like that. If someone of us finds something useful, we should be able to edit some specific post or area.

IS this working with 4.1.2 ?

Yes, I just upgraded to 4.1.2. Which mod do I need?

Also a vB 4.1.2 report: It works, after the code change mentioned above...
