Hi!

1) With video galleries, is it possible on the displayimage.php page not to attempt to play the video but to have a `Click here to download this video' link. Some of my video clips are large and I want members to download the clip for offline playback!

Thanks
Ernie

You can modify it yourself by editting displayimage.php and changing:

            $pic_html = "<object {$image_size['whole']}><param name=\"autostart\" value=\"true\"><param name=\"src\" value=\"". $picture_url . "\"><embed {$image_size['whole']} src=\"". $picture_url . "\" autostart=\"true\"></embed></object><br />\n";

to

            $pic_html = "<object {$image_size['whole']}><param name=\"autostart\" value=\"false\"><param name=\"src\" value=\"". $picture_url . "\"><embed {$image_size['whole']} src=\"". $picture_url . "\" autostart=\"false\"></embed></object><br />\n".
                        "<p><a href=\"download.php?pid={$CURRENT_PIC_DATA['pid']}\">Click here to download</a></p>";



Copy the code at the bottom of this thread as a new file "download.php" in your coppermine folder:

[download code]

is there a way to have an option if the files in the album will have a download link

for example I have 2 albums .. pictures and videos.

I want the videos to have the download link but not the pictures album

thanks

merged your question with the thread you're refering to. Next time, please reply if you actually have a follow-up question on a thread, instead of starting a new thread.
Why don't you just try the code Omni posted? You will find out that it only shows the download link beneath multimedia files, but not beneath regular pics?

Another thing for video-files: It would be nice when the displayimage.php would not show the videowindow (WMP) but a preview screenshot of the video - and clicking on the screenshot would start the "save to..." - , so that for video you would need:

- video.avi
- video.jpg
- thumb_video.jpg

I've noticed that thumb preview images are shown correctly :)

Joachim Müller

The image libraries "GD" and "ImageMagic" (and the PHP functions that are used with them) that are being used by coppermine to create intermediate sized and thumbnails for pics don't support the movie formats, so you can't build movie thumbnails automatically with them. However, you can upload custom thumbnails that represent the movie by creating them on your client and uploading them separately. This is being covered in the docs.

I have done that already for thumbnails (created thumb on my client and uploaded it). However, I would like to see the displayimage.php to show a "video.jpg" for a "video.avi" (or .mpg) instead of the WMP screen.

In other words: same as with pictures, only with a downloadlink for the actual videofile. Or something like that, and NOT the Windows Media Player trying to play the video.

:)

Joachim Müller

then I propose you just upload a jpeg representation of the video in the first place (adding the jpeg the usual way to the coppermine database), upload the video to some folder outside of coppermine and add the video download link in the file description, using bbcode.

That's a good solution :), however, my gallery doens't seem to accept urls in file description. Is that perhaps some option I've missed?

It doesn't work with

[url=http://Jouwsite.nl/]Url Text[/url]

in the description field?

So? Is this a "glitch" in CM? Can I enable it somehow?

Joachim Müller

I don't get the point, this works fine for me - see the demo (take a look at the link in the description of the "vegetables" album) for album descriptions. A link in the pic description can be found here: http://coppermine.sourceforge.net/demo/displayimage.php?pos=-16

The point is...is doens't work on my gallery (latest version) :-\\

see http://www.stefijn.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=10&pos=2

Comes out only as google[/url ]

It works fine in the albumdescription btw.
