hi - my videos are not getting converted after upload. I have the version of ffmpeg installed below.
ffmpeg version 2.2.git
built on Mar 19 2014 15:22:35 with gcc 4.7 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.7.2-2ubuntu1)

A .WMV or .AVI file get uploaded into rawmedia and stay there. ffmpeg extracts the thumbnail, but no conversion appears to happen, its a 30mb file. When attempting to play the video i get the error
"Error loading media - File could not be played"

Can you help me ?

Step 4 and 5 are done and you are sure details are accurate?

Thanks Alexander, my ffmpeg was pointing to a old version of ffmpeg on the server, i have updated the path to the new version of ffmpeg and conversion is now working, however the when clicking on the Thumbnail to load the video, the error message "Error loading media - File could not be played" still appears but if you click on the error message, the video will then play.

Any ideas?

which browser are you using?

[shpeedie]

IE doesnt play at all
Firefox plays but keeps having errors during playback
Chrome also plays but keeps erroring out too.

A safe choice (browser wide) if to link directly to the mp4 file, but that will show the real path.

You can try it:

in lib/class.providers.php

Code Select Expand

if(!isIOS()) {
				  $real_link        = site_url() . 'stream.php?file=' . base64_encode(base64_encode($path));
				  } else {
				  $real_link        = thumb_fix(get_option('mediafolder').'/'.$this->getVideoId("localfile/"));

              }

changed to

Code Select Expand

$real_link        = thumb_fix(get_option('mediafolder').'/'.$this->getVideoId("localfile/"));

Video plays for me?
But there's an weird padding under the video because video height it's 720px in config.
