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'll try to guide you on how to add the definition:
1. Go to Administrator Control Panel
2. Go to AME CP
3. Go to Add New
4. In provider textbox enter "Gametrailers.com"
5. In tag textbox enter "gametrailers" (without quotes)
6. In URL textbox enter

PHP Code:

http://www.gametrailers.com 


7. In Regex URL textbox enter

PHP Code:

http:\/\/www\.gametrailers\.com\/video\/.*\/([0-9]+) 


8. Leave Regex Scrape empty
9. Enter this code in Embed textbox

PHP Code:

<center><div><embed src="http://media.mtvnservices.com/mgid:moses:video:gametrailers.com:{vb:raw code}" width="640" height="385" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowFullScreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" base="." flashVars=""></embed></div></center> 


10. Choose Save
11. Go to AME CP Tools and Rebuild. You're done!

Hope it helps! Enjoy!

Ive done exactly as you said, and all I get is a link when posting a video's url.
Not sure where the mistake is.

Fixes were already described here

There is a mistake in your ame_prep.php file. On line 605 of ame_prep.php file, you should remove the " (quote) in the expression.
You will then end up with

$url_tail = '[\w:\/?\[\]@!$&\'()*+.,;=%\-]*';

If you have the " (quote) in the expression, with:

Richest People Of The Middle East

you end up with:

Not Working for me.....
everything is done but still not working

Is this confirmed working for 4.1.4?

[Mark.B]

Seems that youtu.be share links have stopped working again, this happens either using AME or just the default VIDEO tags. The fix vbulletin.com gave to make them work is no longer effective, must be something YouTube have changed.

I have posted about it HERE.

just installed on vb 4.1.4 and it's not working at all...

Stopped working for me on 4.1.4. Is there a fix for this I have missed? Please. Thanks.
