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.

Can anything be done about mobile youtube links auto embedding? Ones that start with m.xxxx.com?

For example a link like this: http://m.youtube.com/watch?gl=US&hl=...&v=derzWWYf3-w

Cell phone users can't figure out how to embed the videos so a definition for mobile would be very, very useful.

Anyone?

Solution for this is you create new description:

Provider: YouTube - mobile (you can put here any name you want, as long as it is unique).

Tagoption: youtubem (you can put here any name you want, as long as it is unique).

URL: http://m.youtube.com

Regex URL: http:\/\/m\.youtube\.com\/watch\?.*v=([a-z0-9-_]+)

Regex Scrape (leave this empty)

Embed: <object width="660" height="400"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/{vb:raw code}?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0&amp;hd=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/{vb:raw code}?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0&amp;hd=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="660" height="400"></embed></object>

(put here code you already use on your forum for other YT videos, so you have uniform videos in your posts)

Any progress on the Google Maps definition?? Really need something to point a map at places in threads ....

[Alan_SP]

If you really need it, use BBcode for that purpose.

Are you referring to this thread?

This works perfectly! Thank you so much been looking for a way to get mobile video links to auto-embed for a while now.

Thank you!

[Alan_SP]

No problem. :up:

You can mimic this code in case if there's new YT video links, just adjust key settings to comply with new links.
