Future Video uploads functions?

[skidpics]

Since PP has built in video upload functions, will the software ever be modified to auto create thumbnails, and perhaps enhance this function a bit using ffmpeg??

I would beleive in the future this could very well be an option. The issue has always been being able to find a stable download to try and actually in the past it was extremely hard to get a working server install to be able to write this up. Also in that mix is hardly no servers run the software capable for this technology. Michael has had a few posts over the years on this.

I tried at one time to find a download to try since I have a server totally in my control but was never able to find a valid download. I know Michael I think tried getting it working on his server and had trouble. So I guess if I can find a valid download and able to actually get it installed maybe I can try seeing what can be done.

SourceForge.net: FFmpeg

I see no downloads available.

Just curious, since most sharing sites are going to video uploading also.

I am not sure how it works, but my hosting tells me I do not have ffmpeg support, however the case. I have beta install of dolphin community software and it works fine for video playing, and it itself requires ffmpeg to run.. So I am not sure what the deal is.. on the fact why it works without the server support? I do know certain requirements are hard to get, as I had to switch servers twice already to get it all to work..

I know this is just the tip of the iceberg for an option, one that would be a nice addition in the future. Like I stated before, Photopost Pro standalone is a wonderful product, one that should be considered getting away from the Vbulletin version and marketed as an outstanding standalone product also. ;-) But that is my opinion..

On the download, is this the same stuff? ffmpeg.exe??

ffmpeg.exe for Windows
ffmpeg for FreeBSD 6.2 (3 Mb)

Ffmpeg for Linux

Integrations aside Photopost Pro is the best gallery out there for the money.

As far as ffmpeg I will check to see if those links result in a successful compile of the software.
