Description:

This is unlike my past video mod which used bbcode, this one is more simple and works much better for the user too. What it does it parses the url when the post is viewed, so it will work with past links and new links.

So basically the user enters a video link in a post and its automaticly displayed as the actual embedded video.

Myspace videos do not work. I don't just mean myspacetv domain links (which aren't included in this mod).

Solved both issues, see https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?p=1373172

Also includes update of embedded video size for YouTube, as they have updated their video controls and their videos are now a different default size. No more ugly white bars on the sides if you use this.

Just install product as you normally would. (With overwrite option enabled to upgrade.)

I have updated it with another plugin for boomp3.com (sorry, still no working myspace videos.)

Overwrite my old one with this one to add boomp3.com support.

Okay. Here we go. This is my third updated version of 1.0.4 which includes:

Fix for Myspace videos
New Myspacetv.com link support
Boomp3.com support
Support for YouTube URLs as given by RSS (?v=XXXXXX format [no "watch" in URL])
Updated object size for YouTube videos as they have changed their video control sizes
Rewritten internal product description for spelling and clarification

If you grabbed one of my previous versions, overwrite with this one.

To install: Import product as usual. To upgrade: The same with Overwrite enabled.

Need this to work with vBAdvanced news modules. Any ideas or plans to make this compatible?

[Coders Shack]

i may add support for vBAdvanced, depends if its going to be easy or hard.

[snapshotz]

seems metacafe isn't working with your latest 1.4

[kiwivc]

Running 3.6.8 ... installed and it ran flawlessly from the start. I love mods like this

[Coders Shack]

hopefully tonight ill be able to release 1.0.5 which includes the option to turn on/off specific sites via checkbox settings. And will also be adding some shady sites :P
