Setting cronjob for batch video processing

This problem may be related to batch processing but it is specifically for video importing.

I want to use the FTP feature to upload files and then import them to various users. I can FTP the files to my "import" folder in /templates_c and I have made sure that the folder and the files are all chmod 777.

When I use the admin feature to import a file from the list, the screen stays forever telling me that processing is taking place. However, the file never appears on the site. BUT, the mov file disappears from the "import" folder and appears in the "videos" folder. I assume this is because it is then waiting for a background cron job to process the file to flv.

My site is running realtime processing. I have tried background but that does not work at all. I don't mind the realtime but does that mean the import feature will never work? I am not interested in importing from other sites like uTube, only in importing files that I have FTP'd myself.

Are there some specific php files that I can find the code to make some changes? Can these changes even be made if I am not using cron to process my videos?

Video imports, including folder import need cronjob set to work.

If you need, you can run cronjob yourself by accessing the cron.php like http://yourdomain.com/cron.php

When uploading is done I get this error:
Fatal error: Class 'ffmpeg_movie' not found in /home/parsmb/public_html/index/video/include/functions_upload.php on line 174

What is it? How can I fix it?

You don't have ffmpeg-php installed or it is not working properly.

I had set this up in my CPanel, but it appears the cron job does not want to run on it's own every 5 mins.

i have run the cron.php on my site i am getting this error tho :(

cronjob started
Video (3) Conversion starting...
File: /home/wwwdonk/public_html/video/bdprojectfrozen_2.wmv
-------------------------------------------------------------
UPDATE video SET active='0' where VID=2
-------------------------------------------------------------
Video id: 2
Calling ffmpeg-php -> ffmpeg_movie()

Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: ffmpeg_movie in /home/wwwdonk/public_html/include/functions_upload.php on line 174


what does this mean ???

ffmpeg-php is not properly working on the server.

If you setup Batch processing, when a user uploads a video, does it not get converted until the cron job kicks off? Currently I use background processing and have to run cron jobs manually for converting imported flv's. I run my own server locally, so no cpanel or plesk.

Hi, i need help, i have been uploading videos to my youtube clone site and it never uploads the first time. When i upload a video, i would say complete, however it would never covert correctly. Only when i upload it again will it covert correctly. Theses are the errors that i get... Convert Error (convert now), when when i click on convert now, i get File: /home/mymusicl/public_html/video/0017 Clubbed to Death mymusiclogs.mpg

ERROR: file not found.

however, when i try to upload it again, its comes up and works.....y is this?

This error is happen to the wrong path put it in the files.So please make sure about the path.
