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/

Make sure your anymedia template is the latest. I've tested it in IE 6,7 and it works fine. If you're still having problems pm me your details to your forum and I'll take a look.

Hi nix, can you review yahoo video support?

This url didn't work:

[media]http://br.video.yahoo.com/video/play?vid=666528&fr=&cache=1[/media]

Test it

I'm looking to point it to some rm videos I have on another site and when I put the link inbetween the media tags, it just hangs. I'm wondering if it's due to the size. They're 50-80 mb video files.

*bump for Nix*

Just curious...
