I found, that i could not convert M4V videos.
The reason is, that eZ (4.4) does not know the .m4v extension and does not return the valid MIME-type for it (video/x-m4v). As a result, ezvideoflv refused to convert it, because it does not identify it as a video.

Fix:

create a mime.ini.append.php in /settings/override and add




[m4v]


Types[]=video/x-m4v


Then clear your INI cache and convert the files again.
Try
php runcronjobs.php flv
or
php runcronjobs.php flv -all
for re-converting the files.

If that does not help, upload your M4V files again.


The other solution is to rename the M4V files to .mp4 before uploading.

Great.

This is a good one as m4v is a very common and useful file format.

Though it is mime.ini.append.php (not mini).

And one question... if a Video is uploaded in this format, should it be uploaded as Quicktime or Flash Video?

Cherrs. :)
