Pet Videos - Having problems?
 
Dear members,

We are adding a new video feature to the bulletin board.
(We are testing it now - so even though you may see the link in the main navbar, there is no access for the next few hours)

Once it is live - THIS is the place to post your comments questions or troubleshoot.

many thanks
Marko (admin)

marko December 13th, 2008 09:57 AM

Thx - Marko

Diamondsmum December 13th, 2008 08:16 PM

Ohhh Thanks Marko

Diamondsmum December 15th, 2008 11:49 AM

marko December 15th, 2008 12:33 PM

I've looked into this myself..unsuccessfully - and now I'm waiting for some outside help which will hopefully come soon. Sorry for the delay - Marko

I uploaded my first video and was wondering if I did something wrong. It appeared on the BB but when you go to view it all it shows is a red x and when you push the play button it says "error" in red at the top of the screen. How did I mess up? Thanks in advance

Diamondsmum February 4th, 2009 04:20 PM

Hi there dogcatharmony,

I just uploaded one as well to test it.

Did you upload it or did you post a link from youtube?

after mine was uplaoded I got this message..


Media not visible.

This can have 2 Reasons:
1. Media is waiting for Admin's Approval
2. The encoding Process is not finished.

Please call this Link later...
- Don't forget to rate your favourite videos. Just click on a number between 1 and 10 and your vote will be counted (only once).

I think its still encoding but I will keep an eye on it & see if it has same issue as yours

marko February 4th, 2009 04:25 PM

I'm checkin into this - Thx!
marko

marko February 4th, 2009 04:27 PM

Yup seems to be an issue - I'm on it though.

Added - need Dave (tech support :) )for this one - so I'll (or Dave will) post back soon.
Added - it was workin fine though until recently which makes it easier to diagnose.
Thx- Marko

dogcatharmony February 4th, 2009 04:29 PM

Thanks a bunch Marko!!!

Diamondsmum February 4th, 2009 04:30 PM

Thanks marko :)

Mine did same thing so Its not just you dogcatharmony:)

marko February 4th, 2009 04:39 PM

No Prob, my pleasure:)
Question - can both you and Diamondsmum triple confirm that you are trying to upload your own videos NOT youtube or any other shareplace.

Can you also confirm the filetype and size of the file?

Many Thx
Marko

Diamondsmum February 4th, 2009 04:47 PM

yup mine is a AVI size is 16.5MB defiantly uploaded from my PC.

dogcatharmony February 4th, 2009 08:59 PM

yes, mine are uploaded from my PC. One file is 4.79 MB (the cookie one) and the other file is 2.38 MB. And one question, where do I find file type? I know they play on my windows media player and I did upload the same files to my facebook(oh i should put that i did this after they wouldn't load here, so they are not any type of link, straight from my PC). Sorry I am a bit of a computer idiot...

added- the file type is AVI (thanks for the help DM)

marko February 5th, 2009 05:42 PM

Dogcatharmony - I'd like to do a test with your video please.

Can you email the smaller video to pets.ca (A ttt)gmail dot com

use standard email formatting please.

many thanks!

marko

Mat&Murph February 5th, 2009 05:59 PM

Hi Marko,
I have never tried uploading a video yet ( I have a hard enough time with pics) But It says I have send video to Admin. befor posting. How do I do that??
Thanks

Diamondsmum February 5th, 2009 06:43 PM

Ohh M&M I see what your saying.. When you upload a video after its completed uploading it has to be approved by the admin before its actually posted. You dont need to email it to them. HTH. (The vbvideo program does that automatically):)

Mat&Murph February 5th, 2009 06:46 PM

Thanks DM, (duh.) :laughing: I really need to learn to use this

dogcatharmony February 21st, 2009 05:56 PM

Marko,

I was just wondering how the video issue was going. I just recieved two emails from pets with a message saying that my two videos were not approved because they were inappropriate. Was this just a message to clear the videos? Can I repost them or is there still issues?

Thanks a lot,
DCH

marko February 23rd, 2009 10:06 AM

Sorry for the delay everyone,

We have emailed the developer of the software and are awaiting a response. For now you can still add youtube videos though. Hope to have this fixed this week.

thanks again - Marko

marko February 24th, 2009 09:32 AM

Just an update - we have upgraded the video module since yesterday but it's still not working. (Looks cool and new features but still wonked out).

We are now working with the developer to troubleshoot this issue and should have some feedback and a solution real soon.

Thx again,
Marko

marko February 25th, 2009 09:17 AM

Another update - We have located the conflict and are working on a workaround.

Thx
Marko

dave February 25th, 2009 01:57 PM

Please note that while we are able to support several different video formts, there are multiple ways to create an avi file.

If you have a file that will not display properly, please let me know and I will investigate and convert it for you (after you email it to me). PM me or Marko and we will tell you where to send the file.

This will allow us to better resolve any bugs in the software.

dave

marko February 26th, 2009 09:20 AM

So basically what Dave is saying it that it's sort of fixed but if you still have problems please let us know.

Thx
Marko

dogcatharmony February 26th, 2009 08:08 PM

Okay I am lost now. I submitted a new video, got my approval in my email....said to log in to be approved. Come back to pets and log in....and no video. Tried it three times.....is there somewhere else that I am suppost to be logging in? Thanks in advance

Sorry Marko.....I feel like I am being a pest:rolleyes:

DCH.. I am not sure why we get that email I think its not for us. (I think there is still a bug to be worked out)

Your video will be up when one of the admin comes online.:D

cant wait to see it :D

Perhaps Marko or an admin could explain the technical difficulties. There truly must be a light at the end of the tunnel :lightbulb:

I have spoken with both dave & marko via phone & have been Pming/emailing back & forth for the last couple of weeks on this issue.

The reason I say the email is NOT for us is because in the email it says

[B][I]On behalf of Diamondmum[/I][/B] (which makes me think its NOT meant for us)

it could be CC'd (carbon Copied) to us as a acknowledgement or a bug.

Hi Diamondmum...Here's a copy of the e-mail that I received and it doesn't make any mention of diamondmum...humph?

[ATTACH]48865[/ATTACH]

Diamondsmum February 26th, 2009 11:19 PM

Dm is or Diamondsmum is me

as you see on mine its the [B][I]behalf[/I][/B] issue that I am refering too I think it is meant for the admin to login & approve

You will also get one that says Your video has been approved

Thank you for posting your video it will be live soon

marko February 27th, 2009 10:02 AM

Klm your video is approved.
Dogcatharmony Zoe's flying snow leap did not work but dave will make it work.

Basically there are many ways to create file types like .avi and unfortunately not all of them are supported. There is still no one standard which makes it hard when you are trying to share it across the web.

We are on this though and are doing a back and forth with the developer.

but REST ASSURED no one is being a pest.
If anything, WE feel bad that it's not working at 100%.

Unfortunately when we tested it before we bought it worked 100% so we assumed all was good. As often happens in the real world, different camcorder makers use their own proprietary way of converting files. If that way is vastly different from a few common standards, issues arise.

Thanks everyone!
Marko

dogcatharmony March 4th, 2009 06:59 PM

Thanks Marko and thanks Dave. I am hoping he can get it to work.....if not should i just put a youtube link?

marko March 6th, 2009 12:29 AM

Actually I wanted you to email Dave a small video that's not working so he could do a test. Do you have a smallish video?

thx
Marko

dogcatharmony March 9th, 2009 04:02 PM

yes i do. It is quite small. Where do I send it?

marko March 10th, 2009 11:47 AM

I sent the address by PM.
many thx
Marko

marko April 1st, 2009 09:28 AM

We realize their are still some probs...sigh.
There is a new version of this software though so hopefully updating it will help.:fingerscr
Thx for your patience everyone!
marko
