BB Code Enhancements - AME3 - Auto Media Embeding and Video Extender

From the makers of Smooth and Jazz comes the singing sensation my mom has been waiting months for:

AME3. Bigger. Badder. Bestest.

NOTE ABOUT vB4.0.3: ------------------------------------------------------------

vBulletin 4.0.3 has changed the way video codes are handled and in the process, inadvertently broke AME3. I have submitted a bug report and believe that the issue will be quickly resolved. There is a manual fix you can apply for 4.0.3 here in the interim.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

AME3 is the sequel to the multi award winning AME 1x and AME 2x systems. AME3. This time, its different.

Vote for AME3 as MotM!

If you like AME3, you'll love AME'fy for your profiles!

AME3 does 3 things:

• It allows users to simply paste URLs into their message without having to use the video bbcode or video popup box.
• It allows you to add, edit and customise the video definitions that ship with vB4
• It allows you to import community created definitions to extend the system in ways you otherwise couldn't.

Now you can use AME anywhere you can use video bbcode: posts, blogs, visitor messages, the CMS, etc...

Note that I am releasing this early for beta testing and general feedback. There is currently a bug in RC2, RC4 and 4.0.0 that will prevent AME from working however there is a workaround posted below.

I have written a pretty comprehensive readme and attached it seperatly to this post. I suspect both this post and the readme will get updated as AME3 becomes finalised.

I run PhotoPost on my site, for video uploads/downloads and would like the possibility for users to play them in their posts.

Can someone provide me with a definition to use?

Or.... what do I have to, do so my users can display PhotoPost videos in their posts?

Thanks

You'll have to wait for the next new set, or develop some on your own if you can. I can't give an ETA at the moment, because I usually underestimate.

I can deal with that. Looks like the basics are already there, and I can keep my members happy with that for the time being. We're a really small board, so I don't think they used a quarter of the definitions that are there in my v3.8.4 current board.

Thanks for all the great work. :up: This has to be one of the most-used vB hacks of all time. You and Geek should be quite proud.

Since importing the old XML-Definitions doesn't work, what are the REGEX URL and EMBED Code for Myvideo? http://www.myvideo.de

Sample URL:

http://www.myvideo.de/watch/7051871/Britains_Got_Talent_2008_Veniamin_s_Eyes_Pre_Vorsingen_BGT

Sample Embed-Code:

<object style='width:470px;height:285px;' width='470' height='285'><param name='movie' value='http://www.myvideo.de/movie/7051871'></param><param name='AllowFullscreen' value='true'></param><param name='AllowScriptAccess' value='always'></param><embed src='http://www.myvideo.de/movie/7051871' width='470' height='285' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowscriptaccess='always' allowfullscreen='true'></embed></object>

Well, this is the 4.0 section of the forums, so I'd venture a yes.

The Upgrade instructions are included in the Read Me PDF.

Is there any way to have it "understand" the codes for HD (720p and upwards) for youtube videos?

[murekhalir]

My bad- for some reason i read somewhere that it was having issues, but it might have been a previous post not relevant to the current version. Hah thanks. Man i sound like a n00bers.

[murekhalir]

Have a few bugs to report.

Is there any way to make the video centered?

I put centered html codes in - however if you refresh the post - it'll left align.

If you edit the post again - slap another youtube link(s) it ceases to auto embedd
