Here is how things are setup in vb3.8, and it works splendidly. Lets say someone wanted to post this sample video, as an embedded video on my vb3.8 forum:
http://vincentlaforet.smugmug.com/gallery/6042742_wZKiA#377930419_dgxvY
They would go to that url, click on 'share' in the upper right hand corner, 'get a link', embeddable links tab in the popup, click on the 'Copy' to the right of the iPod/DVD tab, then past into a post. Here is the code for reference:
Then delete everything except one of the 2 ids starting with the "s= up until the next quote. Which for that sample video would be this code:
ZT0xJmk9Mzc3OTMwNDE5Jms9ZGd4dlkmYT02MDQyNzQyX3daS2lBJnU9dmluY2VudGxhZm9yZXQ=
Then they would wrap smugmug tags around it like this, and it shows up beautifully as an embedded video:
[smugmug]ZT0xJmk9Mzc3OTMwNDE5Jms9ZGd4dlkmYT02MDQyNzQyX3daS2lBJnU9dmluY2VudGxhZm9yZXQ=[/smugmug]
Here is the BB Code manager in the vb3.8 admin control panel
Here is the code in the Replacement box:
Here is the Example:
[smugmug]ZT0xJmk9NTg0OTg4MzUxJms9YUFQSkQmYT04OTAzMTkyXzlSVWZUJnU9Y2FmZWh1c2t5[/smugmug]
(I removed the code tags because that was inserting an extra space for some reason)
Here is the code from the description box:
Obviously the goal is to get embedded video in xf, not vb. This is what I have at the time being, which of course does not work, or there would be no need for this thread..
In the matching URLs this is what I have now:
And this is in the Embed HTML, which is the same as the matching URLs code:
I am well aware that embedding smugmug is horribly convoluted and not very friendly. But there are historical reasons for using smugmug.
Ironically I could not find any way to embed smugmug on vb3.8, until I sat down for a long time and did it myself, but I cannot seem to figure out how to do it on xf, although I've not spent as much time on it.

Use the movie code from the Smugmug URL in your browser. For example: ZT0xJmk9NTg0OTg4MzUxJms9YUFQSkQmYT04OTAzMTkyXzlSVWZUJnU9Y2FmZWh1c2t5
