SMF Media Gallery (SMG) - 2.0.5 is out! (December 2)

[Nao 尚]

Was that video uploaded before the installation of 1.5?

Yes, it was... If you look at the timestamp, it says 1224487921, which is October 20th.
The question would then be: did the error already happen before installing v1.5...?
And I don't see where the 1.5 install process would ever touch these settings...!

Dragooon> I found another PHP version related bug... PHP4 won't download Youtube thumbnails. This is because headers are tested via get_headers() which is PHP5-only. Grmpf!!! So I'm replacing it with a custom version of url_exists() from Subs-Package (custom not because it's not in smf 1.x -- actually it is -- but because it wouldn't work with Dailymotion thumbnails in the current situation, as it returns an error code different from 200.)

As for the SGL converter, I committed many changes today, *normally* it should work, but I have no SGL install anywhere... (And I have no interest in installing it just to test the script.)
There are just a few things I'd like to bring to your attention, Dragooon: why a 20 second max_exec time? Remember how the new converter also generates the previews and thus is a lot more taxing on the server? The number I used for the CPG converter (5 seconds) is the highest possible number where the script doesn't crash at one point. Anyway, I lowered it to 5 seconds.
As for the rest -- we already discussed it via MSN.

Uninstall. Reinstall with the compatibility setting... (At the bottom of the install page I think.)

this gallery is beautiful. i've fixed all of my issues as i've been installing, but i'm stuck on one. when i upload an album icon, it doesn't show. i get a little box that says "sorry, you are not allowed to view this file. make sure you are connected to the server." i combed this thread and saw another user on page 7 with an icon issue, but it wasn't answered. can anyone help me with this?

also. i would like to be able to do the following on the individual picture pages, if anyone knows of a way:

remove rating
remove filename
remove html embed code
remove "click on picture for full size" - i would like the page to BE the full photo, and i've set the parameters for this. i don't want another one to open.

ETA
i'm getting this error when i create an album, even though the album shows up fine.

thanks

one more thing. i'd also like to know if there's a way to disable user albums. i may want it in the future, but i'd like just the albums i specify to be available for now.

is there a code i could paste onto my forum's index that would display recent items added to the media gallery?

Go into the permissions for the group you do not want to have personal albums, and uncheck the box for:
Add User Albums

mmkk.. installed the new version and it's awsome but..

Videos now show an icon that says "Sorry you are not allowed to view this file. Make sure you are connected to the server."

also, whenever I try and add a new embeded video item to an album it just brings me to a blank screen.

I'm guessing this is for the same reason I can't view videos. Pictures are working just fine.
It's just the videos that are messing up.

Any idea how I can correct this error?

Please, everyone, when you see a bug, please watch the boards at smf-media.com first before reporting them!! (Or even read this topic! It's been reported just a couple of posts above!)
This one has actually been reported several times since yesterday, and fixed the very first time it was reported.

I simply cannot stand there for days and keep repeating the same things over and over... -_-

hcar> removing stuff? Just edit the templates and remove what you don't like... "Click for full size" only shows when the picture is larger than the preview itself. Just make sure previews are disabled or are at width/height > picture's width/height.

It does not generates the previews(I skipped it).

[Nao 尚]

Oh... Okay... But it still doesn't change the fact that a script can't survive for 20 seconds at any rate

[Dragooon]

Yeah I am fine with that .

Ok, no problem, will continue to wait.

You can't help it if you make a mod that everyone loves and is dying to get going and get there hands on it
