Video file size

Hi guys, I have just installed G2.3 and all looks great.

I want to host a lot of video, and in most cases pretty large videos files. I've chosen to go with flash.

I did a test video that came out at 20meg (1000x650 pixel) and that uploaded and played perfectly. see:

I then started the process of encoding some larger / longer vids to FL4 and have uploaded the first one. but with this larger video (313 meg) I don't get the embeded player, it only gives the option to download the file. Although the file size is much larger, the video size is smaller (720x576)

Is this something I can fix? Is it simply the size causing this?

Have quite a large drive on the server which I had intended to pretty much fill with large videos of this type.

Thanks in advance,

regards

Yes, sorry, my typo, it's an F4V.

All that is already done, as I said, the smaller (20meg) F4V file runs perfectly in the embeded player, did you try the link? It's this much larger (313meg) file that doesn't show the player, just a download link. could it be a limitation in the player? maybe there's a max file size for the player that I've exceeded?

Here's a link to the one that only gives the download option, without a player present:

I had that problem to start with on the first (20meg) F4V, but the player appeared, and ran audio, but no image. sussed that one out, set the size then it was fine.

This larger one is different. when I choose edit video, I only get the one tab . 'General', and not the second tab "Movie Size'. So can't set that.

Doesn't seem to like it at all.

Just half way through uploading another F4V, this one is under 300meg (291) will see how that pans out.

Yes, that's the way I'm doing it. using filezilla to upload them.
