Video Duration not working all the time

[Solved]

Foliovision › Forums › FV Player › Bug Reports › Video Duration not working all the time

    Here (redacted) if you hover some videos, you can see the video duration, but on most you can’t. Why would that be? Thanks!

    Hi Tio,

    Thank you for reaching out to us. I can see the issue with missing durations in the playlists.

    Could you please provide us links to separate videos – from which one shows the duration and other not, so that we could test the issue hands-on?

    Thank you,
    Chiara

    For sure!

    Works for these videos

    But not for these:

    I can give you more examples but we have a lot of videos so it might be difficult. However, if you want more examples I can give you.

    Cheers!

    Hello Tio,

    I really do not think hosting a video for free like that on Archive.org is a good idea.

    These videos are slow to load, so I guess our video duration check just times out on these.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Hi Martin,

    From our tests archive.org works really well. I am wondering how the video duration is checked o your side, since it works for a few videos that are over 20 min long and over 600MB in size, but not for some that are 1-3MB in size, and under 1 min long. Maybe there is a bug somewhere in the detection?

    Like this video works https://archive.org/download/the-elephant-in-the-room/15.%20The%20Trade-Free%20Directory.mp4 but not this one https://archive.org/download/TROMSnippets/12.%20What%20is%20the%20trade-free%20directory%3F.mp4
