Simple Audio Video Embedder

[shawnb61]

Since it is eating code, it is possibly the source of formatting issues also.

I'm pretty sure there are much fewer changes to make if you go the #iU route.   Feels safer to me, because you are aligning the default behavior to your desired behavior.

Some background... 

The site I help out at is a guitar-processing and FX junkie website.  Lots of knowledge about guitar FX, modelers, synthesizers, MIDI guitar, etc. is shared.   So, many tutorials, demos, patches, etc. are shared. 

This is an example of a page where SAVE works beautifully and is a great asset to our site - a bunch of YouTube tutorials:

This page has issues, which is why I have Locals disabled at the moment:

Is it possible to disable the video embed function or to inactivate it, for example, when i put the link in the url code?

If i write:

Code Select Expand


- www.vim*o.com/12345678 --> the video appears
- [url=www.vim*o.com/12345678]link[/url] --> the video shouldn't appear


Look at reply #2540

Just use a URL shorten like https://goo.gl/ or https://tr.im/ That works for me, and it's a lot easier than hacking the code, especially when you need to upgrade in the future and you can't remember what it was you modified.

[Arcturus]

Of course but telling all my users they should shorten their URLs is not an option.
I tried hacking the code like this :

Is there a way to NOT embed a video, and just get a plain link? I'm trying to put a plain link into forum signatures, but it embeds the video. I even tried using HTML tags with an HTML link, in case that would prevent it from being embedded, but it didn't work. Ideas?

Edit the REGEX in the database.

Example :
Before :

Code Select Expand

htt(p|ps)://[\w.]+youtube\.[\w]+/watch[(\?|\?feature=player_embedded&)\#!]+v=([\w-]+)[\w&;+=-]*[\#t=]*([\d]*)[&;10wshdq=]*

After :

Code Select Expand

(?<!])htt(p|ps)://[\w.]+youtube\.[\w]+/watch[(\?|\?feature=player_embedded&amp;)\#!]+v=([\w-]+)[\w&;+=-]*[\#t=]*([\d]*)[&;10wshdq=]*

This URL matche in mediapro : hxxp:www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxxxxxxx [nonactive]
This URL not matche in mediapro : [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxxxxxxx[/url]

All the BBCode block mediapro.

But it does not work. And it should be default behavior to not embed URLs that are inside BBC code blocks.

Please vbgamer

Yeah haven't thought of a good way to do this yet.

[RFD]

errors out on v2.012 install.  no clue as to what the problem is.  this shouldn't be a mod, it should be part of the software - who doesn't want to play vids on their forum, really???

[vbgamer45]

It looks like file permission issue since it is asking for ftp information.

[shawnb61]

Yeah haven't thought of a good way to do this yet.

Would a negative lookbehind assertion work?   Fail any <a href that has a ] immediately preceding it?   

[RFD]

what is the problem?  i really need the vid embedder to work!

smf version is the latest 2.012
latest vid embed version 3.6.5

see the two screen shots below.

error msg = "5.1.63-community-logi<56KY]G+ÿ÷ADr5La$,Q2GL"

[vbgamer45]

I would post in general SMF support for that issue I am not sure exactly  5..1.63 looks like mysql but you get the ftp screen.

[RFD]

yeah, php version is 5.1.63 - is 5.3 or higher required to make it work???

[vbgamer45]

No shouldn't matter you would need to post in General SMF support they would better be able to help you with this issue.

[RFD]

i thought this was the sub-forum for mod support?  do you want access to my server to work on this?  if so, no problem, email or pm me direct.  i need this mod installed and working asap.

[vbgamer45]

Yes but it looks like a general SMF package manager issue not an issue with the mod itself.

[vbgamer45]

Looked at your screenshot.
Your FTP port number is wrong 3306 is for mysql thats why you see that appear.

The FTP port number should be 21

[RFD]

changed to port 21 go this error msg, changed all the permissions of all sub-dirs and files to 777, still get the same err msg ...

[RFD]

set to 777 ...

[vbgamer45]

All files and folders normally with the package manager

starting all over, blew it all away, upgraded to php 5.3 ..................
