New Posting Features - VB AnyMedia Player / Media Sites (youtube, google and many more)

Goldbrick Media system for vBulletin 3.6.x

Thanks to all who nominated or voted this for MOTM.

Some of you might be looking for Anymedia. Well this has replaced it. It's a total rewrite from the ground up. A huge thanks goes to Sir Adrian for creating the framework. He can't cook soup but he sure can code.

Why the name goldbrck?

From Wikipedia:

Goldbricking, in today's terms, generally refers to staff who use their work internet access for personal reasons while maintaining the appearance of working.

From Urban Dictionary:

Goldbricking: To loaf or goof around on the job. Supposedly an old union term describing laborers (or more specifically, bricklayers) who were going so slow, it was as if each brick were made of solid gold. One can alse be referred to as a "goldbricker".

Dude, I spent all day at work goldbricking - surfing the web, making long distance phone calls - basically just picking my ass.

Goldbrick uses the following third party Products:

• Highslide Javascript. I've packaged it with the 3.1 download. Please read the license agreement on highlide's website. In short it's free for non-commercial use. http://vikjavev.no/highslide/
• - - -
• The media player and mp3 player are from http://www.jeroenwijering.com/

Hello,
First I want to say thank you so much for making this hack and it is very powerful.

Here is my problem and I appreciate any hints or advice if anybody has one: I installed 3.0.9.1 on my VB 3.6.7 PL1 and got to get Youtube video to work perfectly. However, when I tested other videos, here what I got:

For myspace : I got Error - Unsuport media type error. I did select yes for myspace.
For photobucket: I got a frozen leading. Again I did select yes for photobucket

here is the link to my test page http://www.rchelicoptertown.com/foru...ead.php?t=1175

It seems like only youtube works so far. Again I appreciate any hints I can get.

Thanks for everyone being so patient. I had some paid work to get done but I'm just about done with it. I have most of the problems people have posted fixed but there might be some left over bugs in there.

I should have a new version out today or tomorrow. I also have something in mind for version 3.1. I think all of you will like it.
