Hi,
I am trying to set the thumbnail for the video. I click on the button to chose the file. It does not show in the image place holder. Also, it does not show when I click on the save button.
This is Firefox: http://img29.imageshack.us/img29/3403/firefoxxf.png
This is Google Chrome: http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/7976/chrome.png
Any ideas?
Thanks!!

Researching, I see that I am getting this:
{"message": "Unsupported image type", "id": 79, "success": false}
The image loaded is in jpg format. I've tried with png and gif.
Any help?
Thanks.

One more thing. Firebug says "ThumbUploader is not defined".

I did find something called ArtAlbumUploader. I am trying to rename all the instances of the names of the classes, variables and methods, but I still cannot make it work.
Here is where I am now: http://img186.imageshack.us/img186/8477/uploaderx.png . As you can see, now I see the button, the status bar and the error message, althought the file was a jpg image.
Any idea?

Little step forward?

I am still getting jpeg encoder not available. Suggestions?
You've installed MediaCore from the git repository, yes?
I see two problems going on here:
First is probably a caching issue with your browser, or an incorrect checkout. All references to AlbumArtUploader were replaced with ThumbUploader in this patch: http://github.com/simplestation/mediacore/commit/c6204ad3d0963ada7b2d5991bc5c458b3faa2943
Second is a problem with the PIL (Python Imaging Library) installation. It looks like when PIL was installed (part of the setup process for MediaCore) it couldn't find the JPEG libraries on your system (see http://effbot.org/zone/pil-decoder-jpeg-not-available.htm ). Probably, this means that you don't have the JPEG libraries installed on your system. I honestly hadn't tested installing MediaCore without jpeg libs installed. We may have to add instructions to the install docs to ensure this dependency is satisfied. What OS are you running?
Hi Anthony,
Thanks for the reply.
Yes, I get MediaCore from git repository. I will try the patch.
We are running MediaCore in Ubuntu server.

I still can not make it work... Any idea?
We cannot make it work yet, so we have downloaded the git version for today.
Now we have a new issue with a table when creating the database (see here: http://getmediacore.com/community/topic/install-error-in-sql-table-mediacorecategories-doesnt-exist)
Thanks for your help.

Hi dmferrari,
I'd recommend that before you continue updating MediaCore to the latest development version of git, you resolve the PIL/jpeg issue. That's a problem with the installation of the python module itself which won't be fixed by updating the MediaCore code. Did you try the process that Anthony linked to?
Cheers, Nathan
Nathan,
No, it doesnt. But, after installing the git version it works.
Now, my problem is other. This was solved by installing the new version.
Cheers.

Did you have any luck with this?
I am having a similar issue. I've just updated to the latest version in the GIT repository and while i'm now seeing PIL compile with JPEG support, for some reason the thumbnails are not visible on the site.
I know the upload method is working, as if i do an "ls" in the images/podcast directory I see my images, its just they aren't physically visible on the site... Almost like the template file is pointing to a different image directory.
in Firebug i see the path for the broken image as /my_media/images/podcasts/6m.jpg
the weird thing is the default post which comes with mediacore that points to /my_media/images/podcasts/1m.jpg shows the image fine with no problem.
Any help would be much appreciated as i'm stumped.
Let me know if you need any more information, I am using mod_wsgi so I can dump my apache config here if you thing that may be the problem.
I managed to fix this. Not sure why the apache config included in the mod_wsgi documentation wasn't working correctly.
Adding this line to my apache config and then restarting the apache server fixed my issue
Alias /my_media/images /home/zach/MediaCore-0.8.0/mediacore/public/images
