Find all videos with playback issues?

Foliovision › Forums › FV Player › How to … › Find all videos with playback issues?

  • James M. 1 year, 1 month ago

    Is there a way to check which videos have playback issues?

    I have around 2000 videos stored in the FV player. Some of them don’t play because of the wrong URL, etc.

    Is there a way to do a mass check without doing it manually?

    Thanks :)

    Hello James,

    In FV Player 8 we improved the database and it should be possible to get such report.

    Please check if all of your videos are showing on wp-admin -> FV Player screen.

    Did you ever use the [fvplayer src="..."] shortcode or is it all [fvplayer id="..."]?

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Hi Martin,

    Thanks for the reply.

    All the videos are using the shortcode [fvplayer id="...."]

    They are all listed in the Videos/Playlist.

    However, most of the videos are hosted on a third-party server, So I wanted a way to check that they are all still up and running.

    I can do it manually per video using the “Admin Video Checker”. But I don’t want to check 2000 videos manually.

    Is there another way?

    Thanks,

    James

    Hello James,

    If you are using FV Player database then it should work in version 8.

    I’m running a test to see if all our videos on foliovision.com end up being checked properly using the background scheduled jobs in WordPress.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Hello James,

    It actually only checks the videos for which it failed to get the duration.

    But at least we have a better database structure in FV Player 8.

    We will discuss the possibility of checking all the videos in database periodically.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Hi James,

    We do log failed plays. We can certainly make a list of videos with failed plays and how many failed plays took place. This would help a publisher see at once what videos are failing.

    We’ll work on this next week.

    Thanks, Alec
