Installation
------------

Upload the contents of the /includes directory into your forum's /includes
Upload the contents of the /icon directory into wherever you are storing your LDM icons

Install the flash-sites-plugin.xml as a VB plugin

Create LDM entries in the usual way, specifying the urls using the formats shown above.

Usually, you can get these by hovering over the entries on the sites concerned or by looking at the browser's url line

Your users must install the latest Adobe Flash player for this to work. Tell them
to visit http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/triggerpages_mmcom/flash.html if nothing shows
up on the screen.

Tests
-----

I've included a "sample test videos.xml" file in the /tests subdirectory - you can
import into LDM (LDM/admin/import and export/import) to set up a test for each player
