Hi,

I have 2 questions.

1/ I would know how to configure video (in particular ffmpeg module) in order to import videos?
FFMPEG is already installed on my website server.
I followed http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery3:FAQ#GraphicsMagick_or_ImageMagick_are_installed_but_I_can.27t_select_them._What_do_I_do.3F but I do not find where is the path in modules/gallery/helpers/movie.php.

2/ gallery menalto website is a Drupal website but the Drupal module for Gallery is out of date. Why nobody want to support it in the development team? The gallery included in gallery.menalto.com is only a G2?

Thank you

Moving to a G2 forum

To configure the ffmpeg module for G2 head to gallery admin -> plugins and install the ffmpeg module.
You should then see a link to configure in place of the install link if gallery was not able to auto-detect ffmpeg.

As for question2, there is no Drupal module for G3... no embed API for G3 yet.

1. there is an advanced setting that you can adjust the path to ffmpeg if gallery does not detect the common locations.

2. Time and resources. Got some spare?

No, I test G3. My G2 works fine.

You said that G3 do not have API yet. Do you mean that G3 is on test until 3.1 version and not recommand to use as it is for normal uses?

Thanks

If you need help to test it, I can do it but for coding I'm not the right man.

G2 and G3 are two completely different products. Some features, like embedding, took some time to complete in G2 and are not yet available in G3. So if that feature is important to you, use G2.

OK, I find this option.

I put the same path that I have in G2 (G2's test passed with success) but G3 indicates that FFMPEG is missing...
Any idea?

Thanks

In G2 you just point to the directory ie. /usr/local/bin
but G3 you need the path to the binary ie. /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg

In terminal "whereis" given

Quote:
whereis ffmpeg
ffmpeg: /usr/bin/ffmpeg /usr/share/man/man1/ffmpeg.1.gz

I have tried:
/usr/bin
/usr/bin/
/usr/bin/ffmpeg
/usr/bin/ffmpeg/
Always G3 said

Can't find ffmpeg on your system. Movie uploading disabled.

I have the same problem, with a minor impact, with Imagemagick (convert)...
It's possible because my pathes are not in /usr/local/?
