XF 2.2 Embed videos in post

[kvnhtbs]

Hello, I want to know how I can embed videos in the posts, without these being the ones established by XenForo by default such as Youtube, Vimeo, etc.

But from services like Fembed, Netu, etc.

I don't see the way.

I tried adding a new service inside the Xenforo configuration, where I had to indicate an html code, a url sequence like service.com/embed/v/{$id}, but there is no way.

Click the insert video button or just drag and drop.



You need to allow video uploads in the settings in the ACP.

But I understand that that is for downloaded videos and store it on the server. I want to embed videos from external servers.

You will need to create a media bb code for those sites, if the sites provide one and allow embedding.

There should be a faq or help section on the sites explaining what you need to do.

The manual explains how to create a media bb code: https://xenforo.com/docs/xf2/bbcode/#bb-code-media-sites

This is the one I'm using, or trying to embed, I found it elsewhere.

<div class="bbMediaWrapper">
     <div class="bbMediaWrapper-inner">
         <iframe src="https://vanfem.com/v/{$id}"
                 style="border:0px #FFFFF none;"
                 name="myiFrame"
                 scrolling="no"
                 width="852px"
                 height="480px"
                 frameborder="0"
                 marginheight="0px"
                 marginwidth="0px"
                 allowfullscreen="true">
         </iframe>
     </div>
</div>

However, I will take a look at the FAQ you mention to see if I can clarify something.

There are Media Addons available.

 

[kvnhtbs]

Can you give me some examples? I've searched but haven't found what I'm looking for.

Thank you.

This one https://xenforo.com/community/resources/s9e-media-sites.5973/ but vanfem.com is not include.
You could ask to the dev to add it.

 

[kvnhtbs]

Thank you, I'll check it.

The problem is that I have to upload NSFW videos and I can't upload them on the most of the resources the dev includes.

 

[kvnhtbs]

Another option or idea? Youtube, Vimeo, etc, work, but a new resource I can't make it work properly.

Strange none of my old BB Media Code Sites are working anymore.
Looks like that the <div> parts will not be inserted:


here one which is working (youtube)



Possibly a bug in parsing the BB Code?

If I edit the post, I see that the entered URL has been changed to [MEDIA=xyz]dhsadhajk[/MEDIA]

 

[kvnhtbs]

So I understand that it is a Xenforo error or what is it?

@Brogan could you help in here, please

 

[TheSkullKid]

Anyone who could help in solving that issue?
Thank you

 

[TheSkullKid]

Is there no one who might be able to help.

Well, first you really need to show what BB Media embed code you are using from the ACP settings.
Not what you see rendered in HTML.

See the content of post 5, this would be an example which do not work

That would explain why embeds don't work for that site.

 

[TPerry]

That is apparently a CloudFlare error.. but I did look at that site, and it appears that you have to log into it to be able to view ANY video on it...so it's not surprising that a simple BBMedia code would not be working for a site that requires authentication to see the media.
Would probably need to have an add-on done that creates a connection using credentials defined in the ACP and NOT displayed on the HTML that shows up on the page.
