Add-On Releases - DJ's AMEs :: Media Definitions for AME 2.5 :: More Video, Twitter, Pinterest...

NEARLY 300 SUPPORTED SITES FOR VIDEOS, AUDIO, GAMES AND MORE!

This is the most current repository of definitions for DJ's AME :: The Ultimate Automatic Media Embedder. These media definitions will expand your AME to support embedding from hundreds of websites. More videos. More than videos. These definitions will let you embed content from sites that include games, widgets, music players and so much more.

This repository was seeded by contributions from the vBulletin community over several years, but are curated here for easy access. Special thanks to Hotwheels and Danyloski for starting the tradition.

NEWS
DJ's AME 2.5.7 is out! What are you waitin' fer?!


[hr]#CCCCCC[/hr]
IMPORT
DEFINITIONS ARE NOT INSTALLED They're imported through your AME CP. Which means you have to have AME installed first. You DO NOT import definitions through your Product Manager. I mean, you can try. But I'll make fun of you.

The READ ME file explains in more detail. Please don't skip it. I named it in big letters and everything.


[hr]#CCCCCC[/hr]
VERSION INFO
These definitions are for AME 2.5.

A BETA set of definitions for AME 3 can be found here.


[hr]#CCCCCC[/hr]
LIVE DEMO
This is my development area with a lot of test thread. As such, it's not a comprehensive list of all working definitions. You can find that below...


[hr]#CCCCCC[/hr]
MEDIA DEFINITIONS LIST
The full list of definitions is available in the second post of this thread. Requests for new definitions should be made here (no registration required), rather than in this thread. It makes it easier for me to keep track and to prioritize. Please do not use this area to contact me.

The password is: LetMeIn#33

SUPPORT
I can't stress this enough. I NEED LINKS in order to troubleshoot problems. Links to the video. Links to the thread. I can't do anything without knowing what videos are causing the problem. If all you do is post that a particular site is not working and provide me with nothing to look at, well, how can I fix it? Following this simple guideline will save us both a lot of time and effort. (And check the FAQ on the first page. I worked really hard on that one. :erm: )

Please note that I do new definition requests in the order they were received and as timely as I can.

Hi the geek, I'm interested in using AME for two things:

-Youtube (works beautifully out of the box)

-local hosted .swf


The second one is what I'm having trouble with... I've imported the definition for it and configured my hostname for it (only 2 instances right?)


I can't get it to work though. It embeds the .swf, and shows the background or first frame of it, but otherwise is unresponsive. For an example see this: http://charles-song.com/testvb/showt...hp?p=17#post17

The .swf (a slideshow) works fine in other areas of my site, and by itself, if I put the direct url in my browser.

What am I doing wrong?

For example:

if the embed code for www.myvideo.com/watch.php?v=123456 looks like:
<embed src="http://www.myvideo.com/watch.php?v=abcdef" ... />

In this instance, the URL doesnt 'tie up' to the embed HTML so AME needs to go to www.myvideo.com/watch.php?v=123456 and find the abcdef part. With the Embedding Regexp, AME pulls down the page and runs something like:

http://www\.myvideo\.com/watch\.php\?v=(\w+)

Which grabs the abcdef part so the video will properly embed.

In the event that the URL contains the information you need (i.e. the dailymotion definition I just posted) then this process is redundant and a time waster. Furthermore, the Embedding Regexp is generally different than the regexp used to match the URL in the first place.

Hope this helps.

The Geek, 1st, I am much appreciated that you speak with me.

2nd, I understand that for the current moment the dailymotion can work only with "Regular expression". This is 100% clear for me.

3rd, I am just trying based on dailymotion to make it working also with "Extract destination data".

As I understand this one can be done so?

And at this point I meet with the problem.

Here is my test case.

1. I use URL
   http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x9m63m_canarias-timelapse_creatio
   
2. There in HTML Source I see:
   

       <link rel="canonical" href="/video/x9m63m_canarias-timelapse_creation" />[*]

3. I am trying to get the needed video name from this line.
   
4. So I make:
   
   • Regular expression
     
     PHP Code:

     http://[w\.]*dailymotion\.[com|alice\.it]+/[\w/\-%]*video/([\w\-]+) 

   • Extract destination data
     Yes
     
   • Embedding Regexp
     
     PHP Code:

     <link rel="canonical" href="/video/([a-z_0-9-]+)" 

     • I also tried:
       
       PHP Code:

       href="/video/([a-z_0-9-]+)" 


And this one doesn't work.

I am trying to understand - why?

What I am doing wrong?

Hi 'The Geek' firstly thanks for looking into CAgeFilm.com before.
I have disabled the registration process on the site to ask if you could have another quick look for me, see if this site will work with AME?

I would realy appreciate your help. Am trying to launch my forum this weekend and the vid embedding is a key feature!

Thanks - Tim

Sadly, I can't really help with the local files as I haven't ever even looked into it before. Its a question best suited for DJ

I don't think I totally understand what you are trying to do. The embed Regexp is designed to extract important parameters from a web page where the URL doesnt contain enough data that it needs. This feature won't extract other information for other uses (i.e. the title), though I suppose I could add a hook into the system which would make it easier.

Thanks, hopefully DJ will chime in. I really need to get this ironed out before I take it on my 'real' forum. :up:

The Geek, I am trying to extract data from HTML source of that page.

As I can see there is no meter if the URL does contain enough data or URL doesn't contain enough data.
We can extract in both cases.

I didn't understand this one.

Any HTML page consists smth like this:

<HTML>
<TITLE>Test</TEST>
<BODY>
</BODY>

That future Embedding Regexp can't extract data from any part of HMTL Source? Can extract from only specific one?

I recieved the message

YouTube
Duplicate key.This key would clash with an existing item

I understand an old one needs to be deleted.

Where do I find it to delete it?

Then I assume I need to upload the xml again?

When I get to the media definitions page do I "add new" or "save"?

It means that you are importing a definition that you already have, or that conflicts with one that is installed. Change the key and/or delete the one that is installed you are replacing.
