PostSubject: Important Information Regarding Stream Links   Tue Sep 09, 2008 3:30 pm

I have researched some important information regarding stream links. Be sure to read the entire post on that page.
Link: http://artifrac.forumotion.net/anime-links-f10/death-note-stream-links-t50.htm

Here is a copy of the information that i wrote. It has been taken in-context, so if you are confused, go read the whole topic by clicking the link above.

Quote:
IMPORTANT INFORMATION, READ WHOLE POST

Well thought Lost, however, the loading doesn't start for megavideo unless you manually click it, which goes to show that the browser only loads the flash player at the startup. Since the flash player is the same for all links, the browser needs to cache it only once, and hence download it only once rather than 37 times, effectively reducing download time. Even though my view still stands, i'll defer to you, in case there are any other unseen consequences as well.

Those people who post only single or double links. Please Post them using the bbcode shown above.

EDIT: Apparently, Lost you and I both didn't research this well, thats why when I tried to create a test thread with lots of embedded links I found out that the stream links weren't hotlinks but only reference links, meaning you couldn't embed them in bbcode. Megavideo guys are stupid (and other stream linkers as well especially YouTube; well megavideo copied the YouTube layout so its no big wonder), they put the url of the reference link in their url box. I checked the html embed and found that the actual link is different. T_T. Due to certain important reasons and to prevent abuse, I have turned off html code in the forum posts. Hence you can't embed those links.

(People keep telling me, make the site more sexier, thats why I said embed the links).

EDIT 2: After some more research AND testing on this forum, I have come to the conclusion that you CAN embed links using bbcode. However as I have said before, this requires the correct link in the flash url tag in the bbcode.

e.g. The reference code for your first Death Note link is:
http://www.megavideo.com/?v=6X873KXH , which is the wrong link to point to.

However the embed html code is this:
<object width="432" height="351"><param name="movie" value="http://www.megavideo.com/v/6X873KXH09f701f762aa18b75837ed0f21dc068b.6340303921.0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.megavideo.com/v/6X873KXH09f701f762aa18b75837ed0f21dc068b.6340303921.0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="432" height="351"></embed></object>

Where you can CLEARLY(I've made it bold) see the actual hotlink.

Therefore it takes no genius that to embed using bbcode, you have the use the bold link above.

Hence, the actual bbcode would go as thus:
Code:
[flash(320,240)]http://www.megavideo.com/v/6X873KXH09f701f762aa18b75837ed0f21dc068b.6340303921.0[/flash]


Which if the code is made active. Will look like this, the first stream episode of Death Note:


I've made this stream dimension size lesser than the actual one. You can set it to the actual 432,351 in your posts.

EDIT 3: There is also another option, I've realized. If you embed the flash bbcode within the spoiler tag code i.e.
Code:
[spoiler][flash(320,240)]http://www.megavideo.com/v/6X873KXH09f701f762aa18b75837ed0f21dc068b.6340303921.0[/flash][/spoiler]
then its possible to embed links without them opening up on loading of the page. The users click on the episode link to open the video up. Its useful to open up the video in the forum page, since there aren't any ads or other annoying things to distract you. You can do it like this:

Click 'Spoiler' to open Episode 1 of Death Note
Spoiler:

There drew he forth the brand Excalibur,
And o’er him, drawing it, the winter moon,
Brightening the skirts of a long cloud, ran forth
And sparkled keen with frost against the hilt:
For all the haft twinkled with diamond sparks,
Myriads of topaz-lights, and jacinth-work
Of subtlest jewellery.
