ISSUE SUMMARY:
During a video upload, file uploads completely and then errors out with "unsupported file type".
File being uploaded is .mp4

Where do I check supported file types? Haven't worked it since ver 2.8.1
Strange thing is, some small file mp4 files will load, if they are just a couple seconds in length
php upload limit is 1024Mb
video config section of JomSocial is 200Mb
a 75Mb mp4 file will not load

This is on the development site

STEPS TO REPLICATE:
1 login
2 upload an mp4 file over 50Mb in size
3
4
5
RESULT
unsupported file type
EXPECTED RESULT
video uploads without problem
BROWSER
Safari current

Also, which file do I modify to adjust the ffmpeg conversion setting preferences?

thanks

btw, I'm looking at
../components/com_community/libraries/videos.php and see where it's building the ffmpeg statement to execute

just can't figure out why it's failing on larger mp4 files
thanks

building the ffmpeg statement

// Build the ffmpeg command
            $config	= CFactory::getConfig();
            $cmd 	= array();
            $cmd[]	= $this->ffmpeg;
            $cmd[]	= '-y -i ' . $videoIn;
                    /**
                     * @uses Server must compiled with libx264
                     */
            $cmd[]	= '-vcodec libx264';
            $cmd[]	= '-acodec aac -ab 64k'; /* Set a lower bitrate (for example "-ab 64k") */
            $cmd[]  = '-strict -2';
            $cmd[]  = '-crf 23';
            $cmd[]	= '-s ' . $videoSize;
            $cmd[]	= $config->get('customCommandForVideo');
            $cmd[]	= $videoFullPath;


            $command = implode(' ', $cmd);
            $cmdOut	= $this->_runCommand($command);

Use -h to get full help or, even better, run 'man ffmpeg'

Hi,

I cant replicate the issue at your site:

I will not modify the core files per your instruction.

The mp4 file you are testing is small, small files load ok.

Large files have a problem, but only after they have uploaded completely and then the error is displayed.

I have video debugging enabled but am not sure how to find the debug info you have displayed. Perhaps that will help me.

Hi,

please goto joomla backend > content > media manager, click Options at right, and changing Maximum Size more bigger.

Regards

I changed it from 10Mb to 300Mb.
(I thought this was for images only)

Also verified that JomSocial Video Settings were set for larger file and now have them at 800Mb.

Large Video Upload of mp4 file still fails.

Hi,

sorry, I just saw post_max_size still 40M.
please changing that value at php configuration.

Regards

I increased the sizes of;

post_max_size
upload_max_filesize
memory_limit

And that allowed the file to upload.
Upload was very very slow using Safari, but it worked.
