Introduction
Automatically embed video and audio clips in your SMF forum posts from OVER 130+ sites including YouTube/DailyMotion/MetaCafe/GoogleVideo/BBC Iplayer (uk only) from urls. Without the need for bbcode or messy html.
Just copy the url from your address bar into a postand let the mod will do the rest. Its the ultimate user-friendly way of posting clips.
35+ of those sites require doing a 'lookup' on posting to get the actual embed url/filename in order for embedding to work.
This may not work on all servers. (Such as those with PHP Safe Mode and/or OpenBaseDir enabled).

o No configuration necessary
- No admin settings/permissions to fiddle with. Install and DONE!
o Works for all themes/languages, no manual edits necessary
o Lookups to grab the actual video url/filename, enabling sites to be supported which could not be previously
- On POSTING, the mod checks the post for links to sites that require lookups
- This may not work on all servers (Such as PHP Safe Mode and/or OpenBaseDir enabled)
- Doing a lookup is likely to count towards your host bandwidth limits. (But it should only be eg 20kb each time)
- Lookups will NOT affect pre-existing posts. You'll need to edit the post to make it do the lookup.
o Use bbcode to prevent links being converted to embedded clips
o Prevents embedding inside quote and code blocks
o Hard-coded limit to number to converted links per page (to prevent flash overload/browser crash)
- Only applies to links converted by this mod
o Disabled for Printer Friendly pages & Signatures (& on SMF 2.0 inside the WYSIWYG)
o Safe from security standpoint
- They can't just embed ANY object hosted ANYWHERE, it only works for trusted supported sites
- Properly validates/sanitizes/parses the video id before including it in the url
- Disables script access (allowScriptAccess="never")
o Since all the videos are hosted by external sites, it won't consume your bandwidth
o The mod does NOT allow embedding of video/audio clips on your own site.
