Some of my members are using Youtube links like these:

https://youtu.be/YRAx0wi6A90


And, those won't play with this Youtube mod. Does anyone know of a means of adding some additional codes to make these play?

This is untested, but you could try replacing the bit of code in "inc_func_common.asp" with something like this:

Note the bits in red. If you're running a secure forum, you'll have to switch the values in the replace and change the http to https twice in the second routine.

Also note the two bits in purple. If members post more than one video per topic (including replies), you need to change each 1 to 0. Otherwise, you'll get a mess of videos starting simultaneously.

NOTE: As of Jan 2015, Google (YouTube) is killing off the <object> method of playing YT videos in web pages. They want everyone to use IFrames instead. So if you want to continue displaying YT videos, we'll have to write some security code to preclude anything other than legitimate YT videos in an embedded IFrame.

Thank you, Carefree, but that wouldn't allow any of the Youtube videos to play.

Post a link to your "inc_func_common.asp" in .txt format. It should work as written.

I used the bad word filter.

Change https://youtu.be/ to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=

Switch the order of your title tags

That sounds clever, Bobby.

GROAN! lol


Carefree's coding worked perfect. Both type of links play the videos now. The problem was that my site is on a secure server so that had to be corrected.

Thank you so much, Carefree! I really appreciate you!

It seems that this is no longer supported, they are switching from flash to html5. What needs to be modified to still post the videos?

Ive been using the following for some time now but since Google (Youtube) changed to using iframes there is always a little nag telling users that the Youtube API has been depreciated, ala https://developers.google.com/youtube/flash_api_reference

Is it possible to update this ?

it would be fairly trivial to change the tag replacement to use iframes, however almost certainly any current videos would stop working as the urls required for iframes are different

IIRC the url for the iframe source is like https://www.youtube.com/embed/XXXXXXX

These codes below (for YouTube and Vimeo) work on my site using the [iframe][/iframe] codes, and they allow full screen.

[iframe]https://www.youtube.com/embed/r5L6QlAH3L4?color=ffffff" width="640" height="360" frameborder="0" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen[/iframe]

[iframe]https://player.vimeo.com/video/214844648?color=ffffff" width="640" height="360" frameborder="0" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen[/iframe]

If those codes, and possibly more for other video sites, could be incorporated into the video mods, oh how wonderful that would be! Just sayin'.

Hi guys. I also use lucapan's codes for displaying youtube videos and I'm thankful for that. Recently I noticed the modification for enabling fullscreen. I did it but I see that although it is successful in firefox, the fullscreen button is still greyed out / disabled in google chrome for embedded videos in our snitz forum. I don't know the result in other browsers. I read that this might be related to the html5/flash issue but my trials including installing the latest version of flash and using an extension to force the browser to opt for flash didn't change the result. So, do you know if this is a specific glitch about the chrome and is there a solution for that?

Hi MaGraham, I tried those "iframe" codes in my forum but they didn't work. Do you use a specific mod with which those codes work? As far as I can see, the "OnlineVideos MOD" in the snitzbit site is the only (?) mod for dislaying online videos in a snitz forum including from youtube, vimeo, etc. Is this the mod that you run the iframe codes with? I also tried the standalone youtube display codes ("tubeframe.asp") by Carefree but I couldn't make it work at all either with iframe codes or with [youtube] type codes. Maybe I should have cleared the lucapan's youtube codes first?
