    How to Embed Media on the Forum

    Ok people, this will server as a quick "How-To" on how to using the new Anymedia BBcode that allows you embed just about any video, music, or image file on the net including direct embedding of any Google video.

    I ask ask that you use common sense when embedding any media anywhere on the forum. Always post media relevant to the topic and absolutely no porn of any sort is allowed. I will not give warnings, offensive content will result in a permanent ban.

    @ Supported Ext.:
    ---------------------------------
    flv, swf, swf, spl, mov, qt, mqv, mpeg, mpg, m1s, m1v, m1a, m75, m15, mp2, mpm, mpv, mpa, flc, fli, cel, rtsp, rts, 3gp, 3gpp, 3g2, 3gp2, sdv, amc, mp4, sdp, rm, rmvb, ra, rv, ram, smil, mp3, wma, wav, ogg, ape, mid, midi, asf, asx, wm, wmv, wax, wvx, avi, pdf, fdf, xfdf, xdp, xfd, gif, jpg, jpeg, png, bmp, xpm, torrent, google, youtube, vsocial, vlog

    @ Features:
    ---------------------------------
    1.Use the (Google) Flash Video Player to play the (Google's) flv file;
    2.Use the Flash Single Mp3 Player to play the mp3 file;
    3.Use the PHP BEncode Library to show the Torrent file info.;
    4.Codes could pass the XHTML Validation;
    5.Supported explorers: IE, Mozilla, Firefox, NetScape, Opera...
    6.Supported OS: Windows, Linux, Mac OS X...
    7.You could custom the width and height, and decide whether to autoplay.
    8.You could custom the tag name.
    9.You could custom the title of the player box.
    10.You could choose whether to collapse the player box by default.
    @ How to Use:

    The examples below would be MEDIA, not BEDIA.
    ---------------------------------
    Tag without options:[BEDIA]url_of_the_file[/MEDIA]

    ex.
    [BEDIA]http://server/file.mp3[/MEDIA]

    Shown as a mp3 player (Use the flash mp3 player by default).

    Tag with options:
    [BEDIA=width,height,autostart,extension]url_of_the_file[/MEDIA]
    [BEDIA=width,height,autostart]url_of_the_file[/MEDIA]
    [BEDIA=width,height]url_of_the_file[/MEDIA]


    ex.
    [BEDIA=100,200,yes,rm]http://server/file.mp3[/MEDIA]

    It will use the real player to play the file.mp3,
    the object is 100px width, 200px height, and it will autostart.

    [BEDIA=150,250,0]http://server/file.swf[/MEDIA]
    It will use the flash player to play the file.swf,
    the object is 150px width, 250px height, and it'll NOT autostart.

    [BEDIA=211,421]http://server/file.pdf[/MEDIA]
    It will post the pdf object on the page,
    the object is 211px width, 421px height.

    Other Rule:
    1.WIDTH and HEIGHT are both required if you want to use options;
    2.Available values for the AUTOSTART option: 1, true & yes.
    3.Separate the options with commas, don't add quotes.

    Here is an example of a Google Video URL wrapped in simple MEDIA tags.

    [MEDIA]http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=499138313821366216[/MEDIA]

        Yeah, Moogy is right. Bad idea.

        And is this possible to add to signatures? Probably a good idea to outlaw that if it's possible. Well, I guess it doesn't matter unless it's autoplay though, since you can set the dimensions so they're within the sig limit.

          Sigs are fine as long as it isn't overly large, autoplay is now turned off.

                1) No, that person sucked
                2) There's no need to post twice in a row. You might as well just type the entire sentence into one post. This isn't a chatroom.

                3) This is the most amazing addition ever to the forum. Win++;

                  How do we do these two?

                  Also, you can make all the BEDIA to this:

                  [media=121,122,yes]http://blah.com[/media]

                  Just change the BEDIA to media, with a bold tag thrown in the middle.

                          Can I use this to force it to use winamp to play the file?

                          If so, what is the extension for it?
