dailymotion preview as in ourtube script

[neofutur]

hi all,

I m using the ourtube script , allowing title preview ( and more ) when someone posts a youtube link.

I couldn t find any script doing the same thing as ourtube, for dailymotion.

I tried to have a look at the ourtube script to see if I could add the dailymotion support in this script but . . . I m really not good with tcl ;(


So , here is the request, "dailymotion title preview"

example of what ourtube does for youtube preview :

Code: Select all

(18:01) <  ne0futur> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=coxLw44dMnA
(18:01) <    spaola> Shot in the Back. (by visionontv) 59 views, 4 rating. Last comment:
                     <Cookie4XO (il y a 3 semaines)> . . .

This allows to know at least the title of the video before clicking on a link posted on the IRC

dailymotion ( http://www.dailymotion.com ) is more and more widely used in France and Europe ( faster than youtube seen fronm Europe )

How 'bout one that just does _ANY_ site? Sounds good right?

Webby can do all this plus more than you probably need. But what it does do it does well, so why not use it.. Titles + meta description. Does so much more than just that, but it's one of the best at doing what it does...

Yes I tried webby before setting up ourtube but I couldnt make it work and it seems webby does too much things for my small needs . . .

I ll give it another try, but still needing a small script doing just the dailymotion preview.
