hi i am uploading videos with gallery remote and it won't let me upload more then 2 megs, and also when i go to my gallery after uploading a mpg file it shows no thumbnail and you have to click on no thumbnail then you have to click on "download the movie". i was wondering if there was a way for me to upload more then 2 megs and if there is a way to create a thumbnail for all the movies i upload in the gallery, thank you any help would be appreciated. i am using gallery 2 alpha 4 |

1. this max upload size isn't a G2 restriction, it's from your webserver (php) configuration. Change this php configuration to raise the limit.
2. G2 alpha 4 is a little old by now. You should upgrade to a more recent nightly snapshot. There was also a upload limit bug in G2 alpha 4 which is fixed now. But as far as i know, this just displayed a wrong max upload size and not really limited the upload size.
3. if you want thumbnails of mpeg movies, you need to activate the ffmpg module in G2, which requires the ffmpg program to be installed on your webserver.

thumbnail manager can also add thumbnails for movies (a single image for all movies, not a thumbnail created from the movie itself.. ffmpeg can do that)

- the thumbnail manager is a G2 module which is part of the nightly snapshot. you can activate it in Site Admin->Modules
- php configuration: usually, you configure php with a php.ini file, somewhere in your filesystem. browse to your gallery/lib/tools/phpinfo.php
there you'll find quite on the top of the page "Configuration File (php.ini) Path", edit this php.ini file and restart the webserver.
