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/

I can't even get to stage6 with the www in the address. Only http://stage6.com. Also that video doesn't seem to exist. It says that user doesn't have any videos.

I'm guessing this does not play mp3?

I tried this from sermonindex.net

[media]http://64.34.176.235/sermons/SID13928.mp3[/media]

It told me this:

" Error: unsupported media type."

flash mp3 player is enabled in my anymedia options too

[nix]

That link worked for me. Check your settings one more time to make sure you didn't over look anything.

[Chadi]

Maybe its vbseo? I certainly have all enabled.

[Chadi]

PS: it would be truly awesome if you can also have power point presentation format allowed! Just thought of this

[Chadi]

Ok, I realize when posting its best to hard refresh the page before trying to click the link ( most of the time).

Anyway, streaming windows audio (wax format) shows the player, but it assumes it a video so it shows it as video player instead of the mini audio player. Can you fix this please?

Thanks.

[nix]

You shouldn't have to hard refresh the page unless you use quick reply. But I'm going to fix that for the next release.

The mini player only works for mp3. Flash players can't play windows media.

Wow! what a thread what a hack, why don't you branch off in a product?
