The following information is required to get an answer:
Get this information from the PHP diagnostic (in the configuration wizard).
Gallery URL (optional but very useful):http://206.116.129.73:8080/katrinanathan/gallery/
Gallery version:1.5.4
Apache version:2.0
PHP version (don't just say PHP 4, please):php 5.16
Graphics Toolkit:both netpbm and imagemagick
Operating system:win2k
Web browser/version (if applicable): ie6

Hey folks, having a problem adding movies. I haven't tried any other formats yet. I have no problems adding pictures. What I think is happening is that gallery is not recognizing the .mov as a movie file and thinks it is an image file, so it is trying to perform all the processes to it like an image. so it gets an error. I can't tell if it is uploaded or not. Attached is the debug I got. Any help would be apprceiated.

NEVER MIND,
I fixed my own problem. I went into the config.php to double check the location of the thumbnail for the movie image. I just reworked the '/'s and it worked.

Hello nathanenge,

I had the same problem with my .fla movie clips. I could not also figure out that the clips were uploaded or not. Then I came here to search for any previous posts if anyone had faced the same problem. My problem was exactly the same as yours except that my clips were flash clips with extension .fla.

So I checked my config.php and then reworked the "/"s as you did to see if it works for me.

Bingo !!!!! It did work. Superb.

Tnx & cheers !!!!!

There are some converting program we can use it to convert any video format.
I remember some of them can convert .mov format to other.
Therefore we can try to convert the video format if we have problem with them.
Hope it can help you !

Oops.You cut me off. That was exactly what i was going to say. Just to add that most of those converting programs are free. If you're not sure how to find them, just do a search for .mov format convertion or something similar. You'll notice that they easy to use and do not require technical knowledges.My own son of 4 years can use them succesfully.

Hello,

I am trying to upload a movie file (I tried .mov and .avi) using the gallery 1.5.10 webtool and it finishes but there is no movie thumbnail showing. According to the webtool, here are the Supported file types: jpg, jpeg, gif, png, asx, asf, avi, mpg, mpeg, mp2, wmv, mov, qt, swf, mp4, rm, ram.
I have no problems of uploading pictures with this tool, just problem with movie files.

I also redid my config.php file and no luck. Is there another area in the config.php that I am missing?

Thanks in advance,
Rick

Hi,

i hope you do not expect a picture from the movie as thumbnail.
Thats not possible with Gallery 1.

Gallery 1 uses a fixed thumbnail for all movies.

Please verify that the path to the movie thumbnail is set and correct in the config.php

I have rentered the absolute path for the movie thumbnail. Another thing I notice is that when the transfer window is finished, your "Add Photos" windows goes black with a dismiss button and no other text, like you would when you upload a picture i.e
Processing 1 element.
Adding IMG_0925.JPG
- Creating resized intermediate Version of IMG_0925
Item successfully added.

Is there a size limit to movies? The one I am trying is 20Megs.

The default PHP limit for file uploads is 2 meg.

Your exact value is shown in the phpinfo (reachable via config wizard)
