Hi,  Happy new year !


I discovered a big problem for me since I updated to Coppermine 1.4 :

I have files in my albums with the name "exemple_com-123.avi" etc. And I just discovered that the src name of these files becomes : "exemple.com-123.avi" so videos are not embedded ! I can't change file names (too much files in a lot of directories).
Please help me to correct this issue !

Thanks a lot !

And I see that the videos thumbnails work only with the name "thumb_exemple.com-123.jpg" and not "thumb_exemple_com-123.jpg" even if the video name is "exemple_com-123.avi" !!

Hi
There is a feature in the admin config, under file and thumbnail advanced settings,
Movie playback auto start.  set it to yes.    also click the ? next to it for an explanation.

there is also a feature in the admin tools section for changing file name to file title.
Hope this helps.

Hi,

This is not a problem with file titles, it's a problem with file names !
I have a file "exemple_com-123.avi" and when I try to open it there is nothing because it is embedded as :

<param name="src" value="albums/exemple.com-123.avi" />

It should be :

<param name="src" value="albums/exemple_com-123.avi" />

Underscore is replaced by Coppermine by a dot , it seems only when there is a "com" after (_com gives .com)

I can't change the name of my (thousand of) files to "exemple.com-123.avi" .

Thank you in advance

I found a way :

I replaced the filenames in phpmysql and now I am downloading the thumbs to change their names.

Never name your files with a "_com" !!
