Hi guys
I found a nice script that removes all the work of writing individual embedding for a long list of video host, it works well and pretty easy to be tweaked even by non coders such as me. One problem seems to be that some host have that annoying autostart or autoplay feature when a person places a link to a forum. So if you have a forum page with multiple urls for videos that auto start or play feature drives you nuts.
I have tried to tweak the code by adding a param name= and used the 0 token and the false alpha word, still no luck with vimeo, it continues to start as soon as it finishes loading. This code block shows the script file for vimeo, there are only two files in my includes to run this script so both must be tweaked with the changes, I use the nifty free PSPad editor to do this and have no trouble making any changes needed.
My question is at what level can an option like disabling a feature take place, is this something that must be performed by the host or can this script actually take a param name= to disable it.
Thanks for any input or advice, pointing to a good read is most welcome also.
if (($vimeo) && (strpos($message, 'www.vimeo.com/') !== false)){
$message = preg_replace('#<a class="postlink" href="http:\/\/www.vimeo.com\/(.*?)">(.*?)<\/a>#U', '<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" style="width:400px;height:230px;" data="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=$1&server=vimeo.com&show_title=1&show_byline=1&show_portrait=0&color=&fullscreen=1"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="movie" value="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=$1&server=vimeo.com&show_title=1&show_byline=1&show_portrait=0&color=&fullscreen=1" /></object>', $message);}
