Set uploaded video path -to- download URL of Image
« on: June 25, 2003, 10:20:59 PM »
I am currently serving videos and I have member Upload feature turned on at my site. The problem I am having is with the server play. I do not want these videos to be played on the server but just be available for download. I want these uploaded videos to be saved under a particular folder and the images tables updated with that link in the Download URL field. Is there anyway this can be done?

Thanks in advance.

I dont understand what's the problem to set download URL that pointing to the videos?

Sorry for not being clear. When a member uploads a video to the site, I want that video path (http://www.site.com/data/media/1/video1.avi) to be populated in the database under the download url automatically. The user uploads both the thumbnail and image for the video along with the video.

When the user clicks on the thumbnail, it takes them to the details page where they see the bigger image and video can be downloaded by clicking on the download image. Basically I want the member uploads to work the same way as Admin upload except that the members do not have to give the Download URL part but just upload the video and the script automatically gets the video path.

Hope I am clear in describing the issue. Thanks.
