[ABD] s9e/mediaembed - Embed videos and third-party content without a single BBCode

I don't know. If you post a link after the extension is installed then it should be replaced by the video. Try a new post and make sure the extension is installed and enabled. Check for conflicting extensions too. A custom YouTube BBCode could interfere with it too.

iframe.
It would be beautiful. Inserting a video.

Can't say if it's a bug or intended behavior:
if you use a starting point to play Youtube video, f.e. https://youtu.be/is8GEEwJSVM?t=9m0s, it starts from 9 min as it should. But if you skip the seconds here, like https://youtu.be/is8GEEwJSVM?t=9m, it starts from the 0 mins 9 sec point instead. If you follow the latter link in the browser, it starts ok (from the 9 mins point).

I'd call the behaviour expected; I have encountered 3 kinds of timestamps generated by YouTube: t=X, t=XhXmXs and t=XmXs, where X is a number. The embedded player only accepts the first kind so we need to do some arithmetic to convert the other two. Adding more timestamp formats increases the template's complexity, that's why it only covers real-world usage rather than any theoretical input. Do you know how that link was generated?

Yes. F.e. open Youtube video page in browser (paused), set the time slider at 9.00 mins, then click "Share" below and check the "Start at:" checkbox in the window opened. The link generated will get t=9m parameter (without seconds).

Alright, then I'm going to look for a solution that's backward compatible. Until then you can get a link with the timestamp in seconds by right-clicking on the video and choosing "Copy video URL at current time". Thanks for the heads up.

nice plugin working great on my forum, jsut wanting to ask is their a way to add the following sites to this extension

Raptr

default url http://raptr.com
My profile example http://raptr.com/Atomicfire/wall

Plays.tv

Default https://plays.tv/,
My profile example https://plays.tv/u/Atomicfire

JoshyPHP · Post by **JoshyPHP** » Fri Oct 20, 2017 3:58 pm

Plays.tv is already supported, you just need to use a VOD URL such as https://plays.tv/video/59e91b3c9b6c0c3fc6

Raptr is half past dead and should be offline any day now: http://about.raptr.com/goodbye-raptr/

Hi everybody,
I try to add a vidme video to my board. According to the manual of this extension I should just add the url.
I did that, but the video isn't displayed. I only see the link.
This is the link: https://vid.me/SeBee
What can I do?

Johanna

The extension depends on the s9e\TextFormatter library that's bundled with phpBB and the version that's currently bundled isn't up to date with Vidme's current website.

Until it gets updated you can post Vidme's videos manually like this: [media=vidme]SeBee[/media]

Thanks a lot. That works like a charm.

Will this code still work after the update?

Yes, as long as Vidme is supported that code is supported.
