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 there anyway to fix [ youtube ] [ / youtube ] I have about 500 posts in my forums from upgrade from another forums... Could someone post a fix for AME3 so those will play in posts?

Thanks..:up:

AME runs very well in our V3.x forums. I created a V4.0 test forum, deinstalled AME, and installed AME3 as the installation manual. But AME3 doesn't work.

Videos embedded in current posts have an AME tag around them like this, but the video does not display:

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1Z2kd0rg4Y"]Youtube video[/ame]

When I add video to a new post, the link looks like this and the video works:

[video=youtube;D1Z2kd0rg4Y]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1Z2kd0rg4Y[/video]

Why is it creating the AME tags? How can I get AME to correctly create the [video] tags on current posts?

Edit: I found the answer in the doc under the cutesy title, "Rebuilding and you". Good information. Poor title.

Thanks for any help.

Dan.

This is one of the coolest mods out there but I am hardly using it to the potential without definitions.

I have tried on my own to create definitions but apparently I am doing something wrong.

Is there a tutorial of some sort?

I couldn't find this when I searched ... but I've got it now, and installed, and loving it! Ran the rebuild and ran a few test posts, as expected, it works flawlessly - fantastic work DJ!

I upgraded to VB 4.0.2 and for the life of me I cannot get my code to work that was put together here by The Geek. ( thanks)

It did work in the past on 1 forum but not on another.
I once again I've spent hours triple checking and trying different options with no luck.
Very frustrated at the moment.

Is it possible a a good person could check to see if my code is still correct for the site?

Is there a code for youtube? My AME stopped embedding youtube URL's today. I see youtube completely changed their website and their embed codes over night last night.

YouTube's recent changes shouldn't have had any affect on AME 3 definitions.

I can't embed today. I've changed nothing. Any youtube url I drop stays just as a link.

FWIW, one of my less savvy users just posted a YouTube and it's working fine. Well, in IE8 anyway. As usual, with Firefox I have to reload the page to see it.

Did you install some other mod recently that may be interfering? Can you embed Youtube manually with video tags?
