Hi guys Wink
 
 
I'm just learning about mybb so go easy on me....lol
 
 
I've managed to allow video attachments (avi,mp4) but i need a way to allow the used to play them.
 
There's a few threads saying to use:

http://mods.mybb.com/view/simple-audio-video-embeder
 
But these seem to be payers for embedded urls and not to play the attached video files within the browser.
 
 
Can someone please let me know what i need to do to allow the attached files to be played within the browser?
 
 
Thanks

Anyone ? Sad
You could upload to youtube if its not private, otherwise I can only think of downloading the content. Anyone else got an idea for the OP?

Thanks you for the reply Wink

Allowing embedded videos from the like of youtube is not what Im really after.

I've set up some video types to be attached to posts easy enough but i need them to be played from within the post and not need to be downloaded to be played.

I thought that maybe there was some sort of player or a  code mod that would allow the attached videos to be played from within the post but i cant find anything Sad
Am not sure if this will help. Only mod I could find.

Thanks again for the reply Wink


I actually come across that in my search but from the description it seems like its for embedding links like youtube...etc.


I really didn't think this would be so hard as there are a lot of sites out there that allow the user to upload a video to a post hat can be played Sad
I found this: http://community.mybb.com/thread-79574-page-2.html

Someone suggested Coppermine, not sure if they support videos (though someone believes it does) and I am not sure if it works with 1.8 so be sure to run it on a test install and see if that meets your requirements.
