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.

Just checking this out - works nice, but video.google.co.uk doesn't work. British folks are automatically taken to the co.uk mirror, as oppose the .com

dbl post

This is a very nice hack. If possible, I would like to request Dailymotion.com to the list of supported hosts.

great hack, does this affect forum speed or bandwidth ?

[zeus_r6]

Can you make it work with www.liveleak.com?

[SkyCatcher]

Yeah google.de doesn't work either.... not sure if it's viable but maybe insert a new variable like $passivevid endings into the pregmatch statement to search for like:

video.google$passivevid

$vbulletin->options['endings'] <- defined in admincp where users can enter: .com,.co.uk etc

and then a little loop in which pregmatch goes through and searches for relevant matches with all the domain endings entered in the admincp.

More work, aye, sorry to bring it up lol Love this hack though
