Playing Windows Media Files Inline Using Plugin

This just an upgrade over from my existing hack HERE
to use plugin system for vb3.5 gold


What this hack does::

This hack allows your users to upload media files via your board file management and play the media fields within their post.. It is adivisable to have one inline per post.


Foreword:

This hack might not work on all system due to different configuration, platform, and such. I will try to help you all as much as I can.

This hack will use your board attachment system to run mp3, wma, wmv, flash files. It is a bit server intensive. So be warned

Security Risk:

It has been known that flash files can be used to exploit and compromise certain securities on user computer. You might want to verify your flash attachment before enable flash playing inline on your forum.

Demo











If you use this hack please click install.


As christianb mentioned in the other post, you might need to setup attachement types for your forum to play properly.



Use the following for your types

WMA ?  Content-type: audio/x-ms-wma
WMV ?  Content-type: video/x-ms-wmv
MP3  ?  Content-type: audio/x-mp3
SWF ?  Content-type: application/x-shockwave-flash
AVI  ?  Content-type: video/x-ms-avi
MOV ?  Content-type: video/quicktime
MP4 ? Content-type: video/quicktime
MPEG ?  Content-type: video/mpeg
MPG ?  Content-type: video/mpeg
RAM ?  Content-type: audio/x-pn-realaudio
RM ?  Content-type: audio/x-pn-realaudio
SWC ?  Content-type: application/x-shockwave-flash

NOTE: This hack use your board attachment.php to play those specified media files. Therefore, you will have to set up user right to download attachement in under forum permissions.

This hack did have some issues that I just sorted out. I am going to try and contact the author to see what they are doing with it.

I have fixed the posting ability of multiple attachments of the same file type where they start showing the prior ones. I am also looking to expand on the media capacity of this. Plus I have it working on 3.6.
