Hi,
Great work!
Having a little trouble, appreciate some help.
I have wmv files working perfectly but having trouble with flv files and videos that are on youtube. I'm more concerned getting the youtube working right now than the flash.
I think I'm missing the youtube code and the tags to do this which isn't in the original instructions. I tried to follow the youtube message discussion but was having trouble understanding exactly what I need to do to get youtube to work.
I followed all the instructions here:
http://oxle.com/topic.asp?tid=3437
Thanks again for this great enhancement. Appreciate any comments or help.

Zenfor,
For YouTube to work you need to use the function ReplaceTubeTags.
Here's my source : http://oxle.com/source.asp?page=inc_func_common.asp&lines=yes
On line 546 of my inc_func_common.asp I added the call to ReplaceTubeTags to the function FormatStr(fString).
fString = ReplaceTubeTags(fString)
And then, further on (starting on line 2023) the function itself.
I cannot paste the code here....(cause some of it is being interpreted).
To prevent the youtube urls from being interpreted as normal urls, we need to exclude them from that process.
This is done by adding a line to the function ChkURLs.
(UCase(Right(strArray(Counter-1), 6)) <> "[TUBE]") and _
In my version this is on line 402, but in a default inc_func_common.asp you can add it below the lines that say this:
elseif ((UCase(Right(strArray(Counter-1), 6)) <> "HREF=""") and _
(UCase(Right(strArray(Counter-1), 5)) <> "[IMG]") and _
(UCase(Right(strArray(Counter-1), 5)) <> "[URL]") and _
(UCase(Right(strArray(Counter-1), 6)) <> "[URL=""") and _
(UCase(Right(strArray(Counter-1), 8)) <> "_BLANK"">") and _
so it looks like this:
elseif ((UCase(Right(strArray(Counter-1), 6)) <> "HREF=""") and _
(UCase(Right(strArray(Counter-1), 5)) <> "[IMG]") and _
(UCase(Right(strArray(Counter-1), 5)) <> "[URL]") and _
(UCase(Right(strArray(Counter-1), 6)) <> "[URL=""") and _
(UCase(Right(strArray(Counter-1), 8)) <> "_BLANK"">") and _
(UCase(Right(strArray(Counter-1), 6)) <> "[TUBE]") and _
Then, make sure you've got the right js file loaded ; http://oxle.com/video.js
Load that one in inc_header.asp.
Above this:
Response.Write "<style><!--" & vbNewline & _
Add this:
response.write"<script type=""text/javascript"" src=""video.js""></script>" & vbNewLine If you also have the line about embedding.js, remove that one, as video.js replaces it completely. Video.js also has the functions for GoogleVideo in it, but you'll need to add those functions to inc_func_common.asp similar to the YouTube functions.
That's it.
For the FLV files, I've added the [flv][/flv] function.
fString = ReplaceFLVTags(fString)
fString = ReplaceWFLVTags(fString)
Again the approach is similar.
Add the functions ReplaceFLVTags(fString) and ReplaceWFLVTags(fString), exclude them from ChkURLs, and you're set to go.
Only thing I ask you is to change the entry http://storage.oxle.com/flash/flvplayer.swf in video.js to your own flv-player location. This will save me some bandwidth.< |

MarcelG,
I got the youtube videos to play in my forum (woohoo) and I will try the flash later after my brain takes a rest. This is a great enhancement to message forums.

| Well, it might be that more than 3 youtube flash objects is simply too heavy for the resource intensive IE ?< |

Hi,
The video is working great on my site and a great way to enhance and stimulate discussions. The only thing I'm missing is adding the Format icons and code so I don't have to hand code the [tube] and [/tube] each time. My users haven't figured out how to do it yet so I have to edit their video posts. I must have missed that part in reading the documentation and postings on it. Appreciate any help or ideas. Thanks!< |

Youtube changed their link format again. These functions in embedding.js should fix the problem while supporting the old style links.
function EmbedTubeVideoT(YTPermalink, width, height, autostart) {
if(autostart != true && autostart != false && autostart != "true" && autostart != "false"){
autostart = false; //Replace with default. Default = false.
}//See if we can continue.
if(YTPermalink == null || YTPermalink == "illegal"){
//Nope, we can't.
document.writeln(" error: illegal use of video tag! ");
}else{
//Add the code to the document.
genCode = YTPermalink.replace(new RegExp(/http\:\/\/www\.youtube\.com\/watch\?v\=/g), "");
genCode = YTPermalink.replace(new RegExp(/http\:\/\/www\.youtube\.com\/v\//g), "");
//document.writeln("gencode-"+genCode);
document.writeln('<object width="' + width + '" height="' + height + '"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/' + genCode + '"></param>');
document.writeln('<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/' + genCode + '" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="' + width + '" height="' + height + '"></embed></object>');
document.writeln('<br><center>Hosted by <a href ="http://youtube.com" target="_blank">YouTube</a></center>');
}
}
function EmbedTubeVideo(YTPermalink, width, height, autostart) {
if(autostart != true && autostart != false && autostart != "true" && autostart != "false"){
autostart = false; //Replace with default. Default = false.
}//See if we can continue.
if(YTPermalink == null || YTPermalink == "illegal"){
//Nope, we can't.
document.writeln(" error: illegal use of video tag! ");
}else{
//Add the code to the document.
genCode = YTPermalink.replace(new RegExp(/http\:\/\/www\.youtube\.com\/watch\?v\=/g), "");
genCode = YTPermalink.replace(new RegExp(/http\:\/\/www\.youtube\.com\/v\//g), "");
//document.writeln("gencode-"+genCode);
document.writeln('<object width="' + width + '" height="' + height + '"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/' + genCode + '"></param>');
document.writeln('<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/' + genCode + '" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="' + width + '" height="' + height + '"></embed></object>');
document.writeln('<br><center>Hosted by <a href ="http://youtube.com" target="_blank">YouTube</a></center>');

Hi all, I did not read this whole topic because of the length, but I think I may be able to share some info about embedding video to your Snitz Topic / Forums.
1. I use the JW Media Flash Media Player http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?item=JW_Media_Player
2. I have my boards set to only use HTML mode, no smilies, no basic forum code.
3. Here is an example of what I have been doing and it works great! NO Extra Snitz Mods needed :) http://djshawn.com/forum_/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=141
Rock On!

Now I've read through all nine pages of this thread... is the info here put together somewhere or do I have to do all changes mentioned in the thread one by one? =)
