Simple Audio Video Embedder

Yup that is good one too. I think I will need to add an option to select between the two. I did the same with RSS Feed Poster to work best for certain configurations.

I wouldn't even be configurable. If curl is available, use it, if not use SMF's routine. Giving people options is usually counter intuitive.

Hi everybody,

Firstly thank for your work !!

Do you think, you can add Twitch.TV to your list ? 

Have a good day,

Good work.

I've noticed over the past 2 weeks that a lot of my members' Youtube links are no longer converting to embedded content - I'm having to perform surgery on their links. I'll get a list together of failing URI types.

Ok cool thanks let me know what you can find out.

It's interesting that "standard" link type stuff is also misbehaving. The YT-provided links haven't changed as far as I can see - the only timeline I have is since installation of 3.0.1

Thank you for this Update.

I have another suggestion : Do you think you can add an option to center automatically the videos in a message ?

Thank you again !

Spooky eh?

I run parallel websites (live & test)

i30ownersclub.com
i30ownersclub.uk

In the .com I'm at version 3.0.2 and the above link fails to render as an embed.

In the .uk I'm at version 2.6 and it renders fine.

There are no other mod differences, so I'll push my .uk version to your 3.0.2 later and see how it goes.

[vbgamer45]

Yeah very odd. I haven't touched the youtube links in a long time.

Something is changing the ? to & I would do some other tests on random urls/made up urls and see if it gets changed.

[Shambles]

I'm actually changing the '?' to '&' to get it embedded properly 

The raw link - as provided by youtube and containing '?' - embeds fine on 2.6 but not 3.0.1 or 3.0.2

As I said, I'll do some work myself to bottom it out, and appreciate that which you've done.

[Steve]

You may have said already but I forget, are you clicking the share button on YouTube videos and using that link?

[Shambles]

^--- why would that matter?

[Shambles]

Ok. versions 3.0.2 and 3.0.1 remove the rendering ability.

Regressing to version 2.7.1 restores it, FYI

Additional info:

Vimeo video types also fail to render as embedded objects, until 2.7.1 is reinstalled.

That link works on my test 2.0.x board...

2.7.1 to 3.0.2 no changes in youtube...
Vimeo only change was https support and using iframe instead of object

Make sure you have this change in your post.php

Thanks for looking, veeb, my 3.0.2 installation does indeed have those two changes applied.

I'm happy to regress and stay with 2.7.1 as it fulfils my requirements and works a treat

[vbgamer45]

The last option I can think of you checked the disable embeding in mobile browsers/tablets and somehow it might have picked up your browser.
