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've got a problem with the latest version when there are 2 or more Youtube videos in each post. In IE the page just stops at the first video and refuses to load the video or finish loading the page, but in Firefox the videos and page loads fine. I've uninstalled v3.0.8 and re-installed v3.0.7 and it works fine in both IE and Firefox.

I think I know what it is now. Just use 3.0.7 for now. I'll try and get 3.0.8.1.3.5.6 out today to fix this.

Sounds like the same issue I'm running into, but looks like Nix has narrowed down the issue.

*patiently awaits update.

Nix, I'm really looking forward in having this hack on my site as we tend to get a lot of video posts.

Thanks for working on this hack and making it available to us.
