  • Ron Wallace added a new discussion topic Request supported site
    Is it proper to request that a site be supported by iZap Vdeo here? http://magnify.net should be supported - they are huge. We use them and wish iZap Video would support them. Thank you
  • ura soul added a new discussion topic comments not being saved
    I'm still playing with this plugin and have found that when I write comments to videos that have been uploaded I receive a green 'comment saved successfully' message but the comment is not listed anywhere and the number remains at 0. I haven't...
    • Do one thing, Install fresh izap_videos on fresh elgg version. And than try this. I guess there could be some conflict. Because, we never get such problem with izap_videos plugin.

      Thanks

    • Ok, I have installed a fresh version of elgg 1.7.3 and now the comments work ok...

      I have no 'live' version of elgg at present so I will just keep working on this fresh installation without exploring why the comments don't work on the old installation (1.7.2) - I have all the same plugins enabled now in the fresh version of 1.7.3 as I do in the old version (1.7.2).

      thanks

  • Grizwald added a new discussion topic Blocking uploads by type + spit error
    For some reason, iZap really hates WMV. On my Queue Status tab, if a user uploads a WMV file, it will sit there until I remove it from the DB manually. It will list the WMV as zero bytes and the resulting FLV as zero bytes. I think it would be...
    • Is there some way to stop iZap from even looking at WMV files? Actually, I think a better option would be to just list acceptable formats. I'm using Arvixe, which is supposed to have support for all this multimedia stuff. I've got no idea and I obviously can't ask them to recompile FFMPEG for me. AVI works just fine and I believe SWF also works. This would be a great feature for a future update of iZap. Amazing software and quick support-- impressive and happy!

    • Well you can ensure this , if you have ssh access of the server. I would suggest you to encode WMA file from command line. I would narrow down the exact problem.

    • I do have SSH access as well as access to your standard items through cPanel (such as error logs). I'm a bit hesitant to use it to compile anything via the command line since I don't know exactly what is crossing the line of what appropriate use is defined as for Arvixe. Getting WMV to work would be a lot better than getting rid of it.

       

      I'm running the most recent (25-sept?) release or iZap and Elgg 1.7.1. I'd really rather not give my site's address since its a private community catering to specific private things.

  • martinez added a new discussion topic Any way to add thumbnail to a riverdashboard?
    Instead of text somebody has posted video i wish to have it like facebook - by adding thumbnail to a riverdashboard.. if this featue has been discused?
  • oh, additionally.. It would be a great help if this plugin supported the Elgg category system. :) view reply
  • when I embed a youtube video the youtube thumbnail is not imported/created in the elgg system, so I see a 'placeholder' image instead of the thumbnails. the 'on server' thumbnails seem to be working correctly. I have also discovered that if i... view reply

  • I have installed the latest release - 3.71b and the thumbnails are still not showing. could this possibly be because I am running the plugin on my local pc rather than a webserver?! view reply

      So I would say if everything else seems alright then it's just an issue of the version information not updated in the files. I don't know what else has changed and if you should see a difference elsewhere that would tell you that the update was successful.
