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.

Works With:

Wow, if only I had known this has been 10 months with no fix I would have never installed it. Does anybody know a similar mod that DOES work?

Mine works fine and all embedded videos work. Myspace, google, youtube. I just can't get my own locally hosted video's to play. Has anyone a clue how to do that. I need either .mov, .swf or .wmv to play in the discussion board. and it's not really important to have this feature for the members.
Thanks
Marcus

Hi again
I managed to resize the window and to read the file. IT WORKS.
The only tiny problem that is left is that the video with 640/480 is a tiny bit bigger than the max window in the script. If I could reduce the frame to 1 or 0 border then it would be perfect. Where do I find this setting.



Thanks
Marcus

So with the mod switched on it affects SOME members and only on a FEW threads.

Any ideas? I love the Mod and really want a workaround.

Thanks in anticipation

FCS Webmaster,

the link code undeneath of myspace videos has "tv" in it. Instead use the url of the browser address, where there's no "tv".
