You have had way more special treatment then anyone else. If I would have said half the things you have said in pubic I would have been banned long long ago

You even had your own board on the official smf site which is way more visibility than any featured mod rotation area. No other person had their own board for a mod ever.  And the board was created mainly due to arguments in the avea support topic

You basically bundled the Auto Embed mod to promote the gallery. The auto  embed mod got so many hits due to updating the site definitions files which is why it was the most downloaded mod.
Holy crap. I wrote a very long post, and Opera crashed the moment I pressed the Post button.
What a waste of time.

I'll be very quick then.
- If I didn't have special treatment, I'd have been a SMF dev for at least a year now. But there's always this "oh, he's special you know, we can't have him in our ranks"......... <_<
- I should be banned if whatever I said was untrue. It's the only reason for banning me.
- I never asked for a board. NEVER. I actually rejected this when the project leader (Sleepy or Kindred or someone else, can't remember) offered to do it. I said it would be unmanageable. It was true. I then asked for moderationdid. rights to be able to get rid of offending messages -- never got them. Even though the board was about my work. Talk about special treatemtn...
- I only bundled Aeva Lite into Aeva Media because it made sense. SMG had been leveraging the power of Aeva for so much time, it was pointless not to have them together. That way, I could ensure I'd be able to use the Aeva code inside SMG at all time. And I did.
- SMG had already been in the Top 5 of the popularity rankings consistently for many months. I figured that by merging them together, I could also free up a spot for another mod to be promoted. Yes, I did consider that in my decision. Also, when some people complained that they didn't want the gallery, I put the old Aeva back online. I didn't plan for it, it was a mistake on my part, I fixed it. I never forced anyone into using the gallery area. (Actually, I added a feature in AeMe2 to entirely disable the gallery, button and all, even for admins.)
- The hit thing with the sitelist wasn't the original goal. I was already distributing the sitelist separately, so that people could download it whenever I had a new site added to it. I had already implemented code to download the mod page with fetch_web_data or something, and get the latest version number for Aeva. Then I figured I could also get the sitelist automatically, and then wrote some code to do just that.
- I didn't update the sitelist in the last few months (except this week to remove BBC News support). Yet, Aeva Media still remained in the #1 spot of popularity rankings. So it has no influence on that. If you remember, when Karl was in charge of AEVAC, it was *already* the most popular mod of the time. Overall download numbers don't matter. What I care about is the number of downloads per sitelist update. It gives me anonymous stats about the userbase, and I like that. Basically, Aeva Lite has about 8 to 9.000 barely-active to very-active installs, of which about half are active (at least one view of an Aeva-embedded video per day.) I have yet to establish stats for Aeva Media sitelists (they're hosted on my website).
- And finally: why should I need visibility? Of course it's nice and all, but I'm not working for cash. Do you know how many copies of Foxy! I sold between July 2009 and July 2010? 55. Would you spend your life working on something for about $1500 a year? I personally wouldn't. What I want to spend time working on, though, is something I enjoy doing. Marketing issues never come in the way. Can you say so, in the light of your ipbfree post from last month?
I will not make any deals with you. I've resigned. I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered.

Aeva Media rocks your life.

I installed this mod but was unable to figure out how it works. Can anyone explain to me?

The abbreviation for this mod is cool " SAVE " :P

vbgamer45:
Could you post a query here that removes tags from posts, assuming the db prefix is "smf_" and the tag is [mediatag]

Thank you.

There is a new menu entry added that allows you to toggle supported media sites on and off (I sent a suggestion to have it moved to the correct area in the 2.0 menu instead of top-level).

Once you enable sites, when someone posts, a search is made on the content of that post for a URL to a video at one of those enabled sites. If the URL matches, it turns that into an embedded video player. No tags are needed.
