I have previously been able to upload videos and I have one whole album with them. I have a bunch more that I want to upload and I can't get them in using either Add photos, Server add, or Add video. Using Add photos, it show the upload progress and says one upload completed, but back to the album there's nothing there and nothing in var/albums/foo or var/thumbs/foo. Using Server add or Add videos, it doesn't recognize any of the flv files for adding and then says "Successfully added 0 photos / albums". There are no table records with text field unique to the filename I tried to upload. ffmpeg is present. The other videos play fine. I ran Fix Your Gallery in Maintenance. I have Edit and Add permissions in the album. The folder has 755 permission on the host and its owner and group are www-data. All the video and audio codecs and the flv extension are the same as the other videos I uploaded. I can add a photo to the album. In short -- I'm stuck! Any ideas? Thanks. Update: I'm using Gallery 3.0.3 on Ubuntu server 12.04 |

SOLVED!
First, I added flv to the allowed video extensions. I thought I had done that before, but it must have "fallen off" when I did some other changes including moving the site.
Second, I had some problems in my Server add settings that were causing me to tell it to look for the files in the wrong "import" folder.
Then when I got them all in, the thumbs wouldn't display on the videos, but removing the Videos module fixed that as before.

In the future, to reduce confusion, I would suggest possibly moving the advanced setting videos->allowed_extensions to gallery->allowed_extensions. It appears to affect the behavior of the normal Add photos function, for videos, even if the Videos module is not activated.
