New version, installable/un-installable via the package manager, icludes all 3 media formats, QuickTime, Real and Windows media is now available here
Thanks to Hans_de_echte for starting it, babylonking for the real media code, and unknown for making it possible to work under FireFox.

Should it play inline or only in a new window? When I tried it, I had to click on the link and it opened in a new window only.

Can it also be adapted so attachments with the given extensions can play inline as well? I would prefer to have users attach an .mp3 audio file (so it goes to the smf/attachments folder) and shows up in the post, just like the image file attachments do (as opposed to pointing to an external file). The latter will be far too complicated for my userbase and space on my server is not an issue.

It would actually open a small player within the user's post and play the clip. All you have to do is click the play button. You just put the link for the media file between tags like [stream=256,256]http://www.url to file.mov[/stream].

Thanks 1948Pal

It did not work for my build ... I'd like to see it in action. Could you pm me a link?

Any idea how to get it to play inline from an attachment to the post instead of it pointing to a URL?

cheers

First, I must say .... You're a f***ing god! Thanks for the mod!

I'm having a little problem however - ok, two problems.

First, the option to post flash is now enabled during posting, even though I have it turned off in the admin panel. Related?

Second, If I have 'show most recent posts at the top' set in my profile, the initial post of a wmv will show correctly, but all subsequent posts with wmv's are double wide.

Thanks again for your work!!!

Has anyone gotten this to work correctly? I'm getting the same "Package is corrupted" error.

Wingman7659 · October 04, 2005, 01:42:43 PM

Hi guys,

I have it installed under my SMF 1.1b3 and it wroks great! The only thing that bugs me is the display size of the embedded media, it remains the same in size no matter what I put on [stream=xxx,yyy] (quicktime tag got the same problem too). The problem appears on both IE and FireFox.

Is there anyone of you gurus could enlighten me?

Thanks,

Bigguy · October 05, 2005, 08:39:29 PM

When I try to install this on smf 1.0.5 I get an error in the subs.php file How can I fix this ?

1948Pal · October 06, 2005, 07:18:57 PM

I am not sure if you guys are talking about my streaming 3 mod, if so please post your questions in this topic. And please tell what version of SMF you're running, and what version of the mod you're installing. Although they complete each other, these are two different mods with different authors.
Thanks.

Am I correct in assuming that the files to be streamed by code provided in this topic for flash and real player are attachment files (as opposed to pointing to a file elsewhere)?

DT

Is there a way to have video files such as *.wmv uploaded as attachments then stream or display instead of only being able to download them?

Bigguy · January 27, 2006, 03:56:48 PM

wmv, wma, mpg, mp3 all play in the streaming mod for videos inbedded in the post. I hope that answers your question.

Plus .mov files and such to.

yes, i would like them to stream when i upload them as an attachment. is that possible?

Bigguy · January 27, 2006, 05:48:36 PM

When the streaming mod is installed I found the best way to do it was to get the link for the video or music file you want to play and then post the link, highlight it and press the appropriate stream button. Post the message like this and it will give you streaming. Of course I guess you could post the file as an attachment and then get the link to it and stream it that way. I hope you can understand this, I ramble sometimes.

Phpbb allows you to do this is why i am asking. is there some code that i can add to the attachment mod to allow this to happen?

Bigguy · January 27, 2006, 10:11:35 PM

No code to add. You have to install the mod to get it to work.
