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.

Any chance you are going to release a 3.5 version?

I had considered it but this mod was released and appears to do much more https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=106239

I've managed to set up this for the most part. But there is an issue with bbcode parsing in some special cases:

What could possibly cause this:

If I add an url into a forum posting inside bbcode and it contains an ampersand the result looks like

Code:

http://www.soundchilds.net/backstage/play.php?band_id=29&amp;song_id=24&amp;mode=song_hifi

and gets parsed all ok ie. the media can be streamed when using the [MEDIA] bbcode tag..

example post. http://www.soundchilds.net/loud_loun...35&postcount=3

If I add the same [MEDIA] tag at member.php in a profile field that can take bbcode the url breaks at a few places and looks like

Code:

http://www.soundchilds.net/backstage/play.php?band_id=29&amp;amp;  song_id=24&amp;amp;mode=song  _hifi

My member.php calls the functions_bbcodeparse.php. Including the file got the img tags properly showing instead of plain url's (I have the image resize hack installed).

Is there anyone around with an idea what might cause the above difference in parsing? Where would be best start looking?

I'm running a vb v 3.0.3

Thanks for any ideas!

Best regards,

-Mika

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