Problem with .flv files was created by StevieG
Hi
I have installed AllVideos and am able to display videos from Youtube. However, I am not able to refer to files stored locally. My video parameters show images/stories/videos as the location. As the file cannot be found, I suspect that if I could see the absolute path that AllVideos is using I would see that I am referencing a wrong folder.
Can anybody help me to identify where the software is looking for my videos?
Thanks
Steve

Hi, I have same issue. My problem is I can't play flv files (jwplayer), while I am able to play mp4, wmv, mp3 files. Here are my settings:
All Videos "Local Video Folder": images/stories/videos
php Global configuration "path to media folder": images
php Global configuration "path to images folder": images/stories
The error is Video not found or access denied
I am hosting with a 3rd party on IIS 6.
The article at the following URL has this code (first one works, while 2nd doesn't):
{wmv}WindowsMediaSample{/wmv}
{flv}race{/flv}
al-keetab.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=10:test&catid=10:test&Itemid=2
Please help.

I added a mime type (video/x-flv) via Control Panel of the of the hosting provider, that resolved flv problem.

realplayer, it will allow downloading of youtube videos, and can convert to other formats.
Please note the latest version have certain formats locked out,unless you buy pro, and it is not compatible with firefox 5. ;D
