In one of my previous articles, I've already explained on how to syndicate the Smart Tube XML feeds. However as you may know, there is a slightly improved version of Smart Tube XML, which is used by TubeX and Tube Ace XML scripts. These feeds already contain the paysite URL with your affiliate code, so you don't need to enter it into the PHP code manually.
Let's take a look at this feed:
http://www.christymarks.com/rss/flv_...Q5N y4wLjAuMA
As you can see, it has a tag called "<join_url>" which contain the link to a paysite - the value, which must be assigned to the "paysite_url" custom field. So we need just a bit change the contents of the "Custom Fields" box,a s shown below:
Code:
join_url::paysite_url
screen_url::screen_url
screen::screen
clip_url::clip_url
flv::flv
duration::duration
Now we also need to slightly change the "PHP Code <?php .. ?>" field and put the following PHP code there:
PHP Code:
// put site name into the "paysite_title" custom field according to Free WordPress Tube doc
$post ['custom_fields'] ['paysite_title'] = 'Christy Marks'; // you will need to enter the appropriate site name here
// format clip's duration as mm:ss
$post ['custom_fields'] ['duration'] = date ( 'i:s', $post ['custom_fields'] ['duration'] );
// create an URL of thumb from it's path and filename
$post ['custom_fields'] ['thumb'] = $post ['custom_fields'] ['screen_url'] . $post ['custom_fields'] ['screen'];
// since FLV videos have no uniqui GUID's let's use their URL's as post GUID's
$post ['guid'] = $post ['custom_fields'] ['clip_url'] . $post ['custom_fields'] ['flv'];
// now the most complex part. we have to create the FLV player code, assuming that our FLV player is stored as flvplayer.swf in the root dir of the blog
$post ['custom_fields'] ['video_code'] = '<object id="player" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" name="player" width="700" height="544">
<param name="movie" value="/flvplayer.swf" />
<param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" />
<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" />
<param name="flashvars" value="image=' . $post ['custom_fields'] ['thumb'] . '&file=' . $post ['guid'] . '&autostart=false&linkfromdisplay=true&link=' . urlencode ( $post ['custom_fields'] ['paysite_url'] ) . '" /> <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="/flvplayer.swf" width="700" height="544">
<param name="movie" value="' . $post ['guid'] . '" />
<param name="link" value="' . urlencode ( $post ['custom_fields'] ['paysite_url'] ) . '" />
<param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" />
<param name="linkfromdisplay" value="true" />
<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" />
<param name="flashvars" value="image=' . $post ['custom_fields'] ['thumb'] . '&file=' . $post ['guid'] . '&autostart=false&linkfromdisplay=true&link=' . urlencode ( $post ['custom_fields'] ['paysite_url'] ) . '" /> <p><a href="http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer">Get Flash</a> to see this player.</p>
</object>
</object>';
// now let's delete all useless custom fields
unset ( $post ['custom_fields'] ['screen_url'] );
unset ( $post ['custom_fields'] ['screen'] );
unset ( $post ['custom_fields'] ['clip_url'] );
unset ( $post ['custom_fields'] ['flv'] );
Have a nice day
