filename change - after upload problem. mine is a little dif

[tubeeireann.ie]

, after uothe files are being renamed when uploaded through the site. i.e if i upload the file 'sample video file.MOV' the file will be renamed to 'sample-video-file.MOV.mov'

It causes the spaces in the file name to change to hyphens '-' and also adds on an extra extension onto the file but usually in lower case.

when these itms are added to the process que I get convert error and it reports 'file not found' because the file is listed in the process que with the original filename and it does not look for the renamed file.

Any one else getting this one?

Yes if you use only one word for the file name it works fine but if you name the file with two words or more then you get errors. a file name like < test test.avi > and also < test's test.avi > and < test 'is' test.avi > on the server the file names will be end up as < test test.avi will be test-test.flv > and < test's test.avi will be test\'s-test.flv > and < test 'is' test.avi > will be < test-\'is\'-test.flv >

edit it so it uses unique names for uploading

[tubeeireann.ie]

how do yu mean unique names? do you mean filenames with only one word? that would at least be an improvement or a quick fix but the script should be able to handle files with more than one word in the filename and spaces.

if only the process que did not look for the original filename and simply searched the contents of the /video folder

The system can handle multiple words and spaces in a file name... its just that when it gets beyond a certain length (which I haven't determined yet) the last few letters are dropped in the database, while the file is left with it's original name with the spaces removed and converted to hyphens. Sometimes I've noted that the first letter of the file is dropped.

Edit the Uberuploader or upload.php
and change "unique name" to 1
Something like that.

the upload.php file is encrypted from what i can see.

his appears to be a serious issue that a lot of people are experiencing.

anyone who views this post and has this issue please post all info you have so hopefully it can be resolved
