BB Code Enhancements - ESPN Video BBCode

This should work with most versions of VB, but tested on 3.6.8. I took anywares YOUTUBE BBCode and tweaked it for the NEW ESPN Video. If you haven't seen the video, it is by far the clearest flash video around.

Very easy to use. Just input the title, then past everything AFTER "videoID=" in the replacement

I guess we could use realplayer

You can just use VB Anymedia Player. It supports over 30 sites (including ESPN) and plays the embedded vid within the post. It also plays media files like flv, mov, wmv, mp3 and images. It has served me well.
