    Automated Media Embedding

    Falafel made the most recent request to update our media embedding tools:

    [ame="http://www.cougaruteforum.com/showthread.php?t=12422"]Embedding videos (other than Youtube) - cougaruteforum.com - BYU/Utah/LDS sports forum and message board[/ame]


    I just installed a new add-on that is supposed to be the ultimate in media embedding:

    [ame="http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=202476"]AME 2.5 - Media Embedding for posts, sigs, vm's, groups and blogs - vBulletin.org Forum[/ame]


    Supposedly, you just type or paste the URL for media content in your post and it automatically extracts the media content and properly embeds it. It should work for ~160 different types of media:

    Here is a summary of how it works:

    Here is a site illustrating embedded media using this system:

    I removed the YouTube button in the editor to avoid confusion.

    Try it out and let me know how it works.

          Thanks Jeff!


          (I had to do this image the old way)

          Bummer.... Does it not work for images? I can't remember. Maybe this is my own FAIL.

          Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

              That's interesting. It looks like it even parses non-media URL's and replaces the link text with a title. Hmmm....

                  I can turn that particular feature on/off. Let me know if you like it. I am not so sure I do. We can always use the link tool to change the link text.

                                      I don't think you want the embed. You just want the URL

                                          Yeah, just paste the url and see if it converts it automatically.

                                                          It looks like TMZ doesn't have individualized urls for each video. That's probably the problem here.
