Module: BBcode Video

Hello !

We use the BBcode Video module in order to help deaf people to talks together via a Phorum based forum.
Thanks for the quite good job !

Some users asks us to enable [www.dailymotion.com] videos, is this video provider support planned in a future release ?

Kind regards,

Hello !

Here's a patch to add support for Dailymotion videos :

Edit the bbcode_video.php file :

[code="php"]
$search[] = "/[url\]http:\/\/(\w+\.)?dailymotion.com\/video\/([a-z0-9]+)_([a-z0-9_-]*)[\/url\]/is";
$replace[] = "[video]dailymotion:$2[/video]";

$search[] = "/http:\/\/(\w+\.)?dailymotion.com\/video\/([a-z0-9]+)_([a-z0-9_-]*)/is";
$replace[] = "[video]dailymotion:$2[/video]";
[/code]

In the near end of the file

[code="php"]
// Final replacement for Dailymotion videos
$search[] = "/[video\]dailymotion:(\w+)[\/video\]/is";
$replace[] = "<br /><embed type=\"application/x-shockwave-flash\" src=\"[www.dailymotion.com]\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" width=\"480\" height=\"384\"></embed>";
[/code]

Hope this helps !

Kind regards,

I am not sure if it is the ampersand int body or in the search that is voiding the test:
remove the ampersand after embedded in the code and body and it works, put them in and it doesn't. is the ampersand getting encoded in the body and do I need to search for something else?
thanks
Rob

$search[] = "/http:\/\/(\w+\.)?youtube.com\/watch\?feature=player_embedded&v=([\w_-]+)[a-z0-9;\/\?:@=\&\$\-_\.\+!*'\(\),~%#]*/is";
$replace[] = "[video]youtube:$2[/video]";

Can you please add support for the "new" youtube embedding links?

thanks!

nice one folks, am a newbie and i want to start using phorum....

Attached to this message is an update to the BBCode Video Module, which I am calling Version 1.1

It adds support for Daily Motion videos, thanks to Bouchon66 for contributing the code which I modifed a bit (he had it parsing [url] tags which I changed to parse [video] tags instead in harmony with the modules intent).

It also adds support for the new YouTu.be URL's as suggested by noe.

I have it working on my forum, and it was the new YouTube URLs (youtu.be) that served as motivation to make this update.

Phorum lover, nothing more.
Ruminations

For some unknown reason the module doesn't work at all on my site: [www.dubaimania.net]

Am I doing something wrong?

No idea, did you enable and configure it?

I believe so

IMHO you are using a non supported url. A regular youtube url would look like
[www.youtube.com]
if you want to support the url shown then the regular expression for that needs to be added.
