Passive Video 2.00

Full Version:

Get the full version of Passive Video 2.00 here

Description:

Version 2.00 is a major step up from the older versions.

The main difference in 2.00 is the way it works, before PassiveVideo would make the server do all the work. Now 99% of the work is pushed onto the clients machine.

Another major difference is the amount of control Passive Video gives the Admin and User.

Oh and i almost forgot, the embedding is now done with swfObject 2.0 so now you can globally control settings like wmode and it should work in all browsers now.

Admins can now Enable/Disable videos per forum and per usergroup.

Users can now Enable/Disable video embedding too.

2.00 is a COMPLETE REWRITE!

Works With:

vBulletin [3.6.X to 3.7.2]
vBlog [1.0.0 to 1.0.3]
vbAdvanced [3.0 RC2]

quick note

http://www.varesano.net/blog/fabio/d...youtube+player

to disallow related videos, append &rel=0 to the url.
however,
this mod does not cater for the & after the video id code.

should be easy to fix.

I've run out of ideas on how to fix a problem with this new Lite version. About an hour ago all my YouTube posts are showing two of the exact same URL post, i.e. two players in the same post of the exact same URL.

Example: http://www.thekaraokesinger.net/foru...?p=139#post139

But here http://www.thekaraokesinger.net/foru...hread.php?t=83 where I posted a (my first) URL when I had the last version of passiveVid - (YouTube, Myspace, Google...) Not BBCODE installed. I since uninstalled it per instructions and installed the Lite version and followed the instruction to rebuild the forum information. The first post I made using Lite seemed to work okay and I then deleted the test post but then after that it went to making double images of the player in the same post as show in the examples I showed above after that.

Anyone have a clue? I've uninstalled it twice, rebuilt the forum info each time and then reinstalled it again twice and rebuilt the forum info with the exact same results. If all else fails I will go back to using the previous (older) version even though I really don't want to do that if I don't have to. At least I know that works flawlessly for me. Any clues? I'm hoping it is something that I did wrong perhaps. If it helps I uploaded the first time the folder Upload/ but later deleted the folder as I did first misunderstand the instructions to just upload the contents instead.

I think there's a known bug when people try to use URL tags with it. I mean, look back a couple pages and you'll see I had those double players too. Maybe I still do in older posts, but when I edited the new ones to just have the youtube link by itself they worked fine.

Yes, so I had to make a choice and stick with the older Passive Video, and Automatic Thread Tagger. I want both, so I'll sick with what I have until one or the other is fixed so I can use version 2.0.

Peace,

I went ahead and uninstalled version 2.0 Lite due to the double posting of the image of the player bug and will reinstall it when the double posting of YouTube links get resolved or worked out. It is a fine product but it still needs some work before it is ready for prime time. At least on my forum and apparently some others as well. When it is finally fixed and has proven itself I will purchase it. Thanks.

i had initially 1.1.2 and now uninstalled it and installed this one on my vbulletin 3.7.1.

But after installing i tried to create a thread in one section and it's showing following error:

i would like to purchase premium version if lite version works properly on my forum.
rightnow i;ve disabled mod on my forum to avoid it.

hi, news about the new release (2.01)?

[mickknutson]

I want to know if there is a way I can support inlining the videos I have in vBtube:
http://blincmagazine.com/forum/vbtube.php

Such as using the "Link to share":

I'm getting the double videos with YouTube too.

Untagging, uninstalling 1.1.2...

Maybe the coder is on vacation, who knows. Coders Shack mods are typically real tight, but this version for 3.7.x has issues, as many have noted. Quite unfortunate, as this was my choice of mods for video rendering from other sites. Switched to another due to these issues.
