The code doesn't touch your apache config, it's a flash embed code, has nothing to do with your web server really... It should just load; assuming you inserted the bbcode in the proper place...

Can you link me to an example of your embedding?

It could be that you don't have the flash player installed; or a current version of it... I know I had to jump through all sorts of hurtles on my linux machine to get it to play any java applets...

I'm not sure if it'd be:

But it looks promising...

I'm curious about that too.
I uninstalled all my extensions to see if perhaps there was something in there that was causing it.

The one thing I SHOULD have done - and didn't was clear my cache.
Oh well

Mines working smile

I've added a improved gif,
it does have white text no transparency.

First Post Download txt needs to be updated,
as you read through this thread there are amendments.

As in [7.1] changes.

Love it, wasn't too bad to implement.

Another great Hack from the Gizmo camp.

Youtube also has underscores in the ID's. So you should add it to the regex.

Code
array( "#\[youtube\]([a-zA-Z0-9-_]+)\[/youtube\]#i", '<object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/\1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/\1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>' ),			array( "#\[u\](.+?)\[/u\]#i", "<u>\\1</u>" ),

Mark, the problem with updating the inital post is that this isn't my set of addons, i just hijacked the thread wink...

blaas, I figured they may... I'll update mine and hell, I'll start my own thread wink...

Mark, I'm not sure on taht issue, the video id for that video looks completely differant than what I crafted the regex to accept... I'll look into it later...

Nevermind I fixed that issue.

I am still having an issue playing the Video with Firefox even though I updated my flashplayer, it still will not let me click the play option.

Clearer instructions and more updated code are available on the other thread.

your problem is quite simply, you're entering the URL; all you need to do is enter the video ID.

I really need to check the post before responding to see if it's been edited vs relying on email notices... lol...

Not sure why firefox would give you these issues though, I'm using FFoX2 and haven't noticed any such problems...

Hi - I modified the file to add the YouTube and Google Videos - and YouTube works fine.

But for some reason the Google vid doesn't work.... the black space where the video should be appears on the page along with the bottom (google video) menu, but nothing moving even if I click play.....

Can anyone help me troubleshoot?

Thank you

Hold on a sec I don't want to waste your time so I will redo it all once more triple carefully.

If the vid ID is "-5980380351326007052" then I just sandwich that between [googlevideo] and [/googlevideo], right?

Appreciate the help.

Thanks Gizmo.

I'm NEARLY there now with setting them up. The only thing I can't solve at the moment is the favicon.ico thing for browsers. I just can't get it to appear in the browser, but will keep at it!
