    No answers? I will rephrase the question as I would like an answer too.

    When you upload a file this is what seems to happen in maybe this order or something close...

    move original file to videos directory
    make flv in flvideo directory *
    make mp4 (if you have that set) in flvideo directory
    delete flv *
    delete original file (if set)
    apply atomic parsley (if flvtool set)
    apply qt-faststart (if installed)
    move file to remote server (if set)
    delete file in flvideo directory (if remote is on)
    also the thumbnails are made and stored in the above process

    In the unmodified version of vshare if I uploaded a flv file it was not reconverted if I wanted flv files for playing. But how do I set vshare to NOT convert mp4 files if they are uploaded?

    Please don't start a discussion saying this won't work because of faststart. I am the only one uploading on my site and I convert all my videos before uploading via ftp and then converting in the admin panel. MP4, faststart, correct size, bitrate, audio, etc etc.

    It has to be a line or few somewhere that will bypass all that server processing for nothing.

    This post has been edited on the lines with * as they only related to vshare 2.7 with the mobile addition- not any other setup. My mistake for mixing two versions while asking a question. The question relates to vshare 2.8.1 unmodified (non-mobile) that has had mp4 conversion activated along with fast-start. Looking at the post date of the original poster I would guess it is the same version.
