Live Demo:

Passive Video 2.00

Full Version:

Get the full version of Passive Video 2.00 here

Description:

Version 2.00 is a major step up from the older versions.

The main difference in 2.00 is the way it works, before PassiveVideo would make the server do all the work. Now 99% of the work is pushed onto the clients machine.

Another major difference is the amount of control Passive Video gives the Admin and User.

Oh and i almost forgot, the embedding is now done with swfObject 2.0 so now you can globally control settings like wmode and it should work in all browsers now.

Admins can now Enable/Disable videos per forum and per usergroup.

Users can now Enable/Disable video embedding too.

2.00 is a COMPLETE REWRITE!

Works With:

vBulletin [3.6.X to 3.7.2]
vBlog [1.0.0 to 1.0.3]
vbAdvanced [3.0 RC2]

Passive Video Lite Supported Video Sites:

1. YouTube v2.00

Check my forum and you'll see it in operation in vB 4.0.1.

There are a couple of mods we were able to salvage. The rest didn't work until updated or replaced with something different.

Peace,
Gene

Do you have any plans to post what you had to do to get it to work with vB 4.0.*

Nothing of note to report.

I disabled all plugins before the installation. It took a few days to get the style redone to fit the 4.0 design, and then I tested the plugins to see which ones worked. This one did not require any changes -- not that I'm capable of fiddling with the code anyway except for very, very minor stuff.

Peace,
Gene

Hello Gene,

I try to install it on my testforum but when I activate the addon and make a new thread I only get:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '<' in /srv/****/includes/class_core.php(4031) : eval()'d code on line 68

When I deactivate everything works fine again.

Greetings
Hans

I installed the PassiveVideo200_Lite and it failed to work, again. So I uninstalled it as I did when I was using vB 3.8 because it wouldn't work with it either and then installed passiveVid 1.1.2 and it is working also as it did when I was using vB 3.8. Thanks for trying it out and reporting on it.

OBTW. I have a number of mods installed and I did not uninstall anything. I just did a typical install on top of all my others and it works. It does leave the YT URL link on top but I can live with that.

OK -- I figured out how to fix the problem with IE giving errors on page with vBadvanced using the Lite version of Passivee Video:

Go to manage plug ins -- edit parse_templates
Copy the code in plugin to Word Pad
Replace all

src='clientscript

with

src='{$vbulletin->options['bburl']}/clientscript

I hope this save people the time I could have saved with clear instructions somewhere.

Problem:

When I post v?deos from youtube using Internet explorer or any browser that supports WYSWYG the video is showing up duplicated.

Here is the code created when I use the wyswyg:

PHP Code:

 [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjXU7I6aBpA&feature=player_embedded"][url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjXU7I6aBpA&feature=player_embedded]YouTube - Grupo Niche Gotas De Lluvia[/url][/URL] 


Any Help??

I try the reinstallation several times but doesn't work.

Thanks.

Confirmed, is a bug on this plugin...

Hope a fix in the next upgrade...
