Embedded media player in post · **Released**: 11-24-2004

This is my first mod for VB, I personally need it on my site because it's focus is MP3's, it may be able to be customized for other uses I would think. What it does is embeds Windows Media Player into the body of the post (as well as the regular attachment) using bbcode and plays the attached MP3 file. What this does upon completing the upload is allows the user to copy and paste the URL to the attached file if they choose.

Also, since this bbcode is the Windows Media Player it may also be able to play .avi, .wmv, .mpg etc. So to broaden this you can change the [MP3] [/MP3] tag to something else like [MEDIA] [/MEDIA] for example.

There is no option to secure this to specific groups, however you can use Princeton's Allow Group to Read Titles / Not Content modification as an alternative.

Better template formatting, also maybe add a javascript function so that a user can click to add the line of code to the post.

If you find this useful please Click Install

Update: Added an option to allow only certain groups to add the option to view/paste the URL in their post.

Yes, that and added bbcode. Wasn't sure where to put this but it does add a new function.

Has anyone tested how this works on different platforms? Specifically Mac for instance? Will it still work if a system does not have wmp?

i am not making any garuntees but usually if you have quicktie installed and you come across a code like this it will just use quicktime.

In fact my PC always used quicktime but i changed the settings to use WMP

The only way I have been able to make it so the video window doesn't show is to use a lesser version of WMP.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
