Custom BBcodes

Hi was wondering if anybody would be kind enough so supply the BBcode and html replacent so that I can play/embed mp4 files in the forum. Did a search in Google but the link shown directs me to these support forums.

Thank you

This one works on my boards:
BBCode:

Code: Select all

[MP4]{URL}[/MP4]
HTML replacement:

Code: Select all

<object classid="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B" codebase="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab" width="320" height="195">
    <param name="src" value="{URL}">
    <param name="autoplay" value="false">
    <param name="controller" value="true"><embed height="195" pluginspage="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/" src="{URL}" type="video/quicktime" width="320" controller="true" autoplay="false">
    </object>

Thank you very much :) Just out of curiosity have you any idea why the controls on the player don't show.

Thanks again for your help

Hi Bolverk, to have the controls shown on the player you need to add 20px to the height to allow for the controlbar to show, just thought I'd let you know or anybody else who is having the same problem, this is the replacement html I'm now using for the BB tags you supplied, it works a treat.

<object classid="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B" codebase="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab" width="400" height="335">
<param name="src" value="{URL}">
<param name="autoplay" value="true">
<param name="controller" value="true"><embed height="335" pluginspage="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/" src="{URL}" type="video/quicktime" width="400" controller="true" autoplay="False">
</object>

Thanks again for your help :)
