Is there a way to embed video into the forum? I was transfering posts from my YaBB forum and we have some embeded videos in the posts. I didn't see an obvious way to embed the video in PHPFusion video.

I am wanting the same thing. I don't think the link to modding to add youtube video is what Michael means if trying to transfer posted videos in YABB forums which are automatically imbedded in the forum message as readily playable. That's what I've been trying to figure out how to do. When someone attaches a video to a forum message, instead of just a link to the video file I'd like a player loaded ready-to-run embedded video with the start frame viewable like many other forums do. Has anyone seen a mod like that?

The youtube codes aren't what I'm looking for. YaBB 2.2 has a [media][/media] tag. I can point to a video directly and it will put a player in the post. It doesn't have to be video that is posted to play on another site. I can point directly to the file. Maybe someone that knows how to do coding should look at YaBB 2.2 and see if they can use the coding or convert it. I'm sure this would make a great infusion if not into a version of PHPFusion.

You sure that youtube mod doesn't work? It should be the player right on your forum post. Make sure that when you get the embed code such as:
<object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/SArnDIieXyE&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/SArnDIieXyE&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>


that you take the http://www.youtube.com/v/SArnDIieXyE&rel=1
link and paste it onto your forum post. Highlight it and click the youtube bbcode button. A player for the video should be right on your forum post. I don't know about the media tag thing. all I know is that it works great for me here: http://esmith423.awardspace.com/forum...7#post_307
Other than that, I don't know. Hope that helps a little

Yes I'm sure. The code I was looking for had nothing to do with youtube. I wanted it to work on a wmv that I had in a directory that it was uploaded to. The youtube code embeds flash video. I have video embeded now. Even though I don't think it's completely correct. I think it waits for the video to download and doesn't stream it to the page.

What I would like to see is a smart code that uses [video]The video source[/video] and it can figure out if it was youtube or just a video file or some other video site and it embeds the right player for it to stream the video. I'm sure someone could do this if they tried. I think the mediacenter.pl in YaBB 2.2 does this. Just need someone that know pearl and php to convert this.

Druid, the code for youtube buttons can be found above in my first post. The images for the bbcode buttons can be found here: http://php-fusion.co.uk/forum/viewthr...ost_102767 at about the seventh post down. I see what you're saying now, michaelsfriends, That would be nice to embed any form of video.
