Playing Windows Media Files Inline · **Released**: 09-16-2005

This just a port over from my existing hack for version 3.0.x

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=78235

What this hack does::

This hack allows your users to upload media files via your board file management and play the media fields within their post.. It is adivisable to have one inline per post.

Foreword:

This hack might not work on all system due to different configuration, platform, and such. I will try to help you all as much as I can.

This hack will use your board attachment system to run mp3, wma, wmv, flash files. It is a bit server intensive. So be warned

Security Risk:

It has been known that flash files can be used to exploit and compromise certain securities on user computer. You might want to verify your flash attachment before enable flash playing inline on your forum.

Sounds great, but I won't install it since it requires template changes/file changes.

COBRAws · #3 09-17-2005, 10:43 AM

going to make some good use out of this one! Thank you pal.

Refusing to make template changes is a bit extreme... You're going to miss out on a lot of great hacks.

Anyway, can't this be done using BB Code?

Gizmo5h1t3 · #5 09-17-2005, 02:28 PM

cant seem to get this working on rc2...

the product list doesnt show this as installed or active, when its been installed...and theres nothing in the postbit, or postbit legacy style to show its installed...

It's just that I don't want to do file edits... I don't care about template edits because I don't have to reapply them every time.

Anyway, I'd love this hack if it can be done without file edits.

Not always true. If you look at some of my 3.5 hacks, you will see that i do the template edits during runtime. No manual editing needed.

If you look at the 3.5 releases until now, you will see that most needed one or more templates to be reverted. With all the new AJAX this will only happen more.

Hi Gizmo

I haven't test this out on RC2.

It's a bit tricky, but I think it would be possible to do this without File Edits.
