problem uploading video: failed to convert frame to gd image

[MrStinky]

Hey all,

i seem to be having a problem when uploading a video with my vshare script.

Fatal error: failed to convert frame to gd image in /var/www/include/classes/class.video_thumb.php on line 190

all is installed but for some reason im getting this error, has it to do with ffmpeg and no gd support for it? anyone got some pointers on how to fix this? am running ubuntu kernel 2.6.15 8.01 release.

Thanks in advance!!

seems like i solved it recompiled ffmpeg and now the error is gone! :)
if anyone else runs into this problem let me know and ill help you out.

ok well now that that problem is solved, i run into the other problem.
Before i mess stuff up maybe someone here has a solution for this.
Upoading video's goes fine however when i want to check the preview in admin section it stays loading and doesnt do anything, also on the frontpage it does post the movie but with a x that it cannot be displayed.
also when i click on the link through the main page i get a 404
the link it refers to is:

http://localhost/view/11/testing-229-pm/

dont mind the localhost i tunneld to the linux server as i didnt secure it yet, so i see that it refers to a folder named view, when i ls my /var/www/ i dont see the view folder i need to create that folder?
maybe im being a noob and if so smack me please ( hope u do it with a manual ;) ).
Thanks in advance.
