How can I add more allowed file extensions?

[V@no]

try use .asx, .pls or .m3u  type of playlist and add your mms:// url in there.
For example you can create one with MP player:
add one URL to the playlist, then go to File -> Save Now Playing Playlist

And, perhaps, you'd like to share it with us ?

Ok, so I've read all of the steps of the tutorial and added my new file perfectly.
I can also download it with ease from my gallery (after reading other posts).
The problem that I'm having now is there is no image for it. I created a new template in the
templates/media folder. I copied the one for jpg.html and renamed it imf.html
All I see when I open my gallery and click that image is a red x.
I'm not sure what to do now. I've searched up and down. Can someone help me with the right code for this?

This is what I have now...

<!-- Template file for IMF Files -->
<img src="{media_src}" border="1" alt="{image_name}"{width_height} /><br />

It's an incredimail file .imf
Thanks bunches!

What image are you talking about? About icon? Then perhaps you need to add imf.jpg into templates/<your template>/icons/

[rossgirl]

The file I uploaded was a .imf file so I had to add a new file extension because at first it wouldn't even upload the file. Then I followed the tutorials and I changed the code where specified and was able to upload the file. Then I copied the jpg.html template (in templates/media) and renamed it imf.html so that I would be able to view the file after the upload. But the problem I had is that I still could not view the file.  Instead of seeing the file, I see only a red x. I'm wondering if someone can help me with this?

The code I showed in my first post was the code for my imf.html template. Is there something in it that I need to change?
Thanks.

[V@no]

I doubt you can view .imf files in the browser...

Ok, thanks vano. I actually had to do a preview image manually and upload that and point the download url directly to the file on my server (in case anyone else has this problem). You were right, they weren't viewable in the browser. Oh well. Thanks for the help!

@ m3tallica and all other wmv-friends,

WMV as new valid file extensions

1. add wmv as new file extension in your ACP -> Settings -> Valid file extensions

2. for wmv-files add the following code line into your includes/upload_definitions.php

Code: [Select]

$mime_type_match['wmv'] = array("video/x-ms-wmv");

3. create a new wmv.html in templates/<your_template>/media/ like this

Code: [Select]

<!-- Template file for WMV Movies  -->
<embed id="VideoVIDEO"
name="VideoVIDEO"
pluginspage="http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/en/Download/default.asp"
src="{media_src}"
type="application/x-mplayer2"
EnableFullScreenControls="1"
AUTOREWIND="0"
SHOWSTATUSBAR="1"
AnimationatStart="false"
SHOWDISPLAY="0"
AUTOSIZE="1"
ENABLECONTEXTMENU="1"
SHOWCONTROLS="1"
PLAYCOUNT="0">
<br>

4. create a new wmv-icon as wmv.gif in templates/<your_template>/icons/ like this


... thats all ... now you can present wmv-files in your 4images gallery ...

Вроде все сделал как указанно выше. Файл загружается, воспроизводится на странице member.php, но при переходе в категорию с файлом страница просто не открывается. "Невозможно отобразить страницу". В чем может быть проблема?И еще вопрос, если можно. Что нужно сделать, чтобы воспроизводились файлы mpg? Заранее спасибо!

I am trying to add .wmv files to the allowed extensions.  I've followed the instructions here as said and can't find a problem.  When I try to upload a .wmv file I do not recieve an "error" message, however, the text "Select an Image File!" does appear...   Any ideas on how I can fix this?

[V@no]

the files might be larger then max upload size set in php.ini
check phpinfo() and contact your host administrator if its too low, otherwise nothing you can do, but upload them via ftp

...wait...where am i supposed to be checking this info?  php.ini is where?   phpinfo() is where?

[IcEcReaM]

if you have 1.72 you find phpinfo in the CP.
there should be then a value for max uploaded file size
