Major Additions - Goldbrick Audio/Video Media System

Goldbrick Media system for vBulletin 3.7

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/

When you put a link in it works when creating a topic or replying but when you edit and save your edit you just get bbcode.

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting ')' in /path/goldbrick/plugins/bbcode_create.php on line 53

Anyone else get this?

[RetroDreams]

Nevermind. I see I'm running PHP 4.4.7. Thanks anyway.

Hi, when members upload .wmv and click play. Let if members click on the file itself and save to the desktop it will play. the members don't have any problem if it were link from YouTube URL. Any suggestion?

Hey before I install, does this can be shown on threads like past version of anymedia? instead of opening that popup?

[MaxiMal]

Nix, imho, necessary make auto converting all video attach to *.flv format (may be as add-on for this mod)
As to add the solved videoes formats automatically after installation mod

It to allow to increase number of the users
As a consequence, donation

ps sorry for my eng.
