Can I put a movie in the new album?

Can I put a movie in the new album? If so, how?

I have a 14.5 MB movie of Caroline, which far exceeds the size limit for uploads (1 MB).

Hi Everhard,

I can understand that one wants to have a limit for image sizes in it to avoid too much hard disc usage.
I've seen that the 1024 KB limit is a default setting in the config panel of my own coppermine on my own small server, which is version 1.35 (slightly older than the 1.4 version of TDA). An administrator can put in a higher value there.
It should IMO be nice if one could filter on extension and put e.g. a 1024 kb limit on images (e.g. jpeg and others) and a higher limit on movie files (mpeg and other movie file types) but I can't find such thing in coppermine v 1.35.
I don't know wat the policy will be on this, maybe Inkling or Ish can give a clear answer on it!

Hi Everhard,

Finally an answer on this.
Movies are not allowed, they consume too much bandwith. People keep playing them from TDF instead of downloading them.

With Kind Regards,

Okay, I might be able to put it on my dolls' web site.

Hi Everhard,

Good idea, that saves TDF probably a lot bandwith. Anyway TDF is meant IMO to host things like images for dollowners, and also movies, but if the last generate that much traffic, then I can understand that the job of keeping it running and get it paid becomes too big.

I have been out of touch with TDF for so long I have forgotten how to access Leyna's album. She is in the Archive Gallery. Page 26 if I remember right. I'm think about doing so new shoots of her but I don't know how anymore.

I opened a Yahoo Group to post videos for the forum here http://groups.yahoo.com/group/TDFVideos/

I will post my Vegas clips here once I edit them. There is a 5 meg limit on size and total 20 megs in file so I will make them small but a decent size.
:wink:

Thanks Crazy.

My videos, although very short (twenty seconds I reckon) range between 6.5 and 14.5 MB, which I assume is why they failed to upload when I tried it...
