video doesnt upload

when i upload video files it says its completed but the when i go to play them it says file not found. can anyone shed any light this

d7 beta2

Hello!

After upload page will be reloaded. But in case with sound and video files should be converted by Cron which is run every 5 minutes. And only successful convertation it will be available in browse menu.

Regard

this is the email i get from cron can you assist in thi

X-Powered-By: PHP/5.2.6 Content-type: text/html register_globals is On (warning, you should have this param in Off state, or your site will unsafe)
Please go to the
Dolphin Troubleshooter
and solve the problem.

You need to turn register_globals off.
If you have access to the php.ini file you should be able to change this.
Or you may need to contact your host and ask them to turn register_globals off.

it is off this is the email response i get from cron have double checked

For that e-mail, get with your host if it's saying it's off.

Next, why do have these cron jobs set to run every 5 minutes for videos and then giving an error video not found when people try to play it?  Wouldn't it make more sense to tell them the video is awaiting approval and will be ready in 5 minutes for them to review/play?  Or better yet, why don't we run the cron job every minute or every 10 seconds for that matter?  In the world of the internet 5 minutes is an extremely long amount of time to wait for something that should be done in seconds.

Move that we post in TRAC to improve this feature massively, I can just imagine the endusers uploading the same videos 20 times and then getting mad and leaving when it seems to them it's not working.

Testing Beta 2:  does cron have to convert audio also? On my test site mp3 files are working properly. but video files in flv format uploaded a week ago, not been able to play.  Only blank thumbnail exist and when clicked to play the player says file does not exist.

I don't think I have a folder permission issue because if I check under the /flash/modules/video/files/

all uploaded video files are here numbered as 1,2,3,4,5,6 etc. So, the files are physically written on to the disk, I don't understand why it can not be found.

Any ideas and suggestion will be appreciated.

Thank you guys.

Hello webreplicator!

Seems in your case Cron Jobs weren't run at all. That's why you see in folders files like 1,2,3 etc. instead 1_small.jpg, 1.flv, 1.mpg... Check Cron Jobs and permissions to flash/modules/global/app/ffmpeg.exe (must be 777).

Hi

I am facing the same issues like webreplicator. I have checked the permission permissions to flash/modules/global/app/ffmpeg.exe and it is 777.

I have also checked my cron job set and that too is set to run every minute. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Another information that I am looking for is where to set the max upload limit of video files. I was able to do that in the D6 but in D7 I can not find the setting in administrator. I know its a silly question but i felt it better to ask then to keep hitting my head on the wall and getting frustrated not finding it

Thank

Believe it or not - my video upload started working. I noticed a small typo (actually one small mistake took out one whole functionality :D) I set crons.php in the cron job setting instead of cron.php. Thanks LeonidS - I would not have double checked the cron settings if u would not have mentioned it.

Thank

Well if you would like to run cronjobs every minute.. you can.. just replace 5 with 1.. but if you don't have many members and you run cron 1440 times per day, on a shared host they will kick you out..

I don't think many want my opin of shared hosting here mastermindsro.

any other conclusions? I also get the email about the register globals being on, when I checked several times and see their off.

btw, cron.php is also spelled correctly for me. I wish I could have been that lucky and simply to fix it.

after a lot of trial and error this was my fix my hosting has php.ini set up in cgi mode therfore i placed php.ini in the periodic folder configured cron as usual and that was it

hello..
can any one help me by saying the video uploading path and the function where this task is performing in dolphin ?
it is very urgent. Please help me

and I also want to creat new video uploading section  name "comedy video".

Can any one help me please. How i can do it...??

Thanks, bdebouck.

I followed your way to put php.ini into ..\periodic\ sub-directory and make D7.B5's video

working which didn't worked since D7.B1.

But I still have little problem for video uploading.

The video uploading stayed at stage "Video is being processed" even uploading is completed.

Click small video picture starting reloading and then video is in normal display and ready to play.

After that, the video is working fine.

Any idea for this issue?

How about your video?
