fv_flowlayer_tmp_ files

[Solved]

Foliovision › Forums › FV Player › Troubleshooting › fv_flowlayer_tmp_ files

  • Camillo 6 years, 2 months ago

    Hi everbody.
    Today i find lots of files on my ‘uploads’ folder. They have names like:

    fv_flowlayer_tmp_9232fe81225bcaef853ae32870a2b0fe_u and mostly same size (4mb).

    Where do they come from?
    Can delete them and not worry?

    Thank you and best regards!

    Hello Camillo,

    FV Player checks the video duration when saving the post. So it has to download a a small piece of the file to your server for analysis.

    I see that it’s not getting removed properly anymore – it’s a bug introduced by the FV Player database.

    We prepared a fix for the next plugin version. Could you please reinstall FV Player from this link? https://github.com/foliovision/fv-wordpress-flowplayer/archive/master.zip To do that you will have to first deactivate and delete the current FV Player plugin you are using. WordPress will warn you that you might loose settings and data, but it’s not the case with our plugin, no settings now videos will be lost. Or you can just replace the plugin files via FTP.

    Then these files will be removed properly and the old files will be cleaned up too.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Hi Martin!

    Now everything works fine! :-)

    Thanks 4 your reply and support.

    PS. Can you tell my why, using old interface is not recommended? I like when iframe code included video source, so im using it that way.

    Martin 6 years ago

    Hello Camillo,

    the old interface is the FV Player editor interface, it doesn’t affect the player HTML code. As there were no issues reported with the new interface we will get rid of this option.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Hi Martin.

    It’s me again :-) It’s sad what you say, because I want the path to the mp4 file TO BE included in the code.

    If I understood correctly, I will not be able to do it soon?

    Hi Camillo!

    We will revisit this option with the team again and I’ll let you know.

    Thanks,

    Hello Camillo,

    FV Player is not using a tag with clearly visible video URL for a while. There are no plans to put that back as it was just making everything much harder – it needed a separate code for single video players and separate for players with a playlist.

    We did receive a request to make sure the URL is part of the enclosure tags in the RSS feed though: https://foliovision.com/support/fv-wordpress-flowplayer/troubleshooting/new-player-update-has-killed-all-our-videos-via-xml Perhaps it’s a use case similar to yours.

    Thanks,
    Martin
