Description:

This is unlike my past video mod which used bbcode, this one is more simple and works much better for the user too. What it does it parses the url when the post is viewed, so it will work with past links and new links.

So basically the user enters a video link in a post and its automaticly displayed as the actual embedded video.

vBulletin [3.6.X to 3.7.0 beta 3]
vBlog [1.0.0 to 1.0.3]
vbAdvanced [3.0 RC2]

Excellent work!

the biggest issues are always something thats stupid and right in your face.

also you were probably distracted from the giant array of complex statements.

Thx for the response though Coders, would like to get this working

I don't have much to work with then. I know that it works on about 100 other boards with youtube, not sure why on yours its trying to parse the url twice. Unless you somehow have two instances of passiveVid installed, or duplicated the plugin. I have no idea whats wrong with yours.

I'm not sure if anyone noticed this, but apparently Google videos is embedding Yahoo videos on their site, and they don't post very well on my own message board. I recall reading something about the URL appearing above a blank video window, but I don't recall the solution.

Example: Post this video to your Forum, and it will not work: http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...arch&plindex=1

The video really is this one:

The only problem I've found with this mod is that I can't figure out how to get it to work on other portions of the site that are not standard VB.

For example: VbJournal, Photopost VB Gallery, VBLinks.

Is there any tips you could give me on what code needs to be added where in order to activate this for posting in these other portions of my website?

Also - is Virb possible?
