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.

Is it just me or is there no product file in the zip?

Edit: Nevermind, I forgot this is the only modification out of the thousands of mods on vbulletin.org that hides the XML file in the includes/xml/ folder... :P

Handy hint: Read the install file.

Not only does it tell you exactly what you missed, it's packed full of funnies.

If it's a first time install, I agree - read the instructions. But it seemed stupid to download an additional 2mb install file just to be told what we already know when upgrading... upload new files, import product, click "Overwrite" tada. Touche though... I was moreso jabbing at the fact that this is the only mod I've ever installed (and I've installed at least a hundred...) that has to hide the product file inside the upload folder instead of putting it outside of the upload folder.

I see it more as 'the only mod to take advantage of a feature that would otherwise remain entirely unused'.

Master XML imported fine
Getting this however with amazon rss feeds:

Warning: preg_replace() [function.preg-replace]: Unknown modifier '/' in [path]/includes/ame_prep.php on line 556

Line 555 and 556:

					$text = preg_replace('%(\[(quote|php|html|code|nomedia)([^\]]*)\](.*?)\[/(\2)\])%sime', '$this->substitute(\'\1\', $this->_subbed)', $text);
					$text = preg_replace($info['find'], $info['replace'], $text);

ive been off vb for a long while and today i upgraded a forum to 4.0.1 , however we used your old hack for 3.8x with custom local wmv addition... now ive been trying to reload local wmv
after many many tries am still failing...
I tried disabling the hack and modifying bbcode xml file and adding our self as source and modify bbcode video template, still no luck
i retried using your hack with this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

	</def>
</AME3>

It does parse and changes the code but still no display of embed !
either a so simple mistake or donno ! hope you can help

The post shows nothing on display
however on edit :


video=ms;http://www.MYDOMAIN.ms/movies/lebmov...madina-low.wmv[/video]

so basically its being parsed after preg matches ... any advice on where i went wrong ?
regards
