Dear admin Could you please replace the the existing file? http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:The_movie_ALMA_—_In_Search_of_our_Cosmic_Origins.ogv with * file: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/51588233/The%20movie%20ALMA%20%E2%80%94%20In%20Search%20of%20our%20Cosmic%20Origins.ogv * file description: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/51588233/The_movie_ALMA_%E2%80%94_In_Search_of_our_Cosmic_Origins.txt * Username to use: DrLee --------------------------------------------------------------------- Could you please delete: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/TimedText:The movie ALMA — In Search of our Cosmic Origins.ogv.grc.srt It has a wrong language file extension, it should be el.srt instead of grc.srt Thank you! -- DrLee / Martin

Hi Alex Ah, but the uploading is okay? -- Martin
It should be.
Super, thx!
* The TimedText file has been moved to the correct name on the wiki. * Since the file description page is already on Commons, the only thing that needs doing is to overwrite the current 256.54 MB file with the 931 MB version from <https://dl.dropbox.com/u/51588233/The%20movie%20ALMA%20%E2%80%94%20In%20Search%20of%20our%20Cosmic%20Origins.ogv> * Username to use: DrLee I am assigning Sam (Reedy) to this bug, since he's the person who has been responsible for doing server-side uploads for the past few months or so.
Thx Tomasz & Sam!
I uploaded the new version, but thumbnails give: Error generating thumbnail Error creating thumbnail: '/usr/bin/avconv' -threads 1 -ss 493 -y -i 'http://ms-fe.pmtpa.wmnet:80/v1/AUTH_43651b15-ed7a-40b6-b745-47666abf8dfe/wikipedia-commons-local-public.9b/9/9b/The_movie_ALMA_%E2%80%94_In_Search_of_our_Cosmic_Origins.ogv?temp_url_sig=4c052410bc18300cef60c9d690df4168404197ad&temp_url_expires=1364685500' -ss 3 -s 120x68 -f mjpeg -an -vframes 1 '/tmp/transform_7366e4457c35-1.jpg' 2>&1 wgMaxShellMemory: 409600 avconv version 0.8.5-4:0.8.5-0ubuntu0.12.04.1, Copyright (c) 2000-2012 the Libav developers built on Jan 24 2013 18:01:36 with gcc 4.6.3 [ogg @ 0xb768c0] Unknown skeleton version 4.0 [ogg @ 0xb768c0] max_analyze_duration reached Also seeking seem to stall on FireFox.

@Jan: can you look at how this file is encoded a bit?
Weird, on my system, the video files works perfectly fine with Firefox 20.0 beta and VLC. And the file has been encoded by ffmpeg2theora, like all other videos I've uploaded so far. And they all work. -- Martin
Never mind guys! Maybe the Wiki video encoder doesn't like big files. I'll re-encode the file to 499MB and re-upload it myself. Thanks for your efforts -- Martin
The encoder that's currently used on Commons definitely likes big files, I myself have asked for files much bigger than 1 GiB (and a few just slightly below 2 GiB) to be uploaded on Commons. The file looks perfectly OK on my computer, and is of an amazing quality, so please do not re-encode it again :-) Therefore I am closing the bug as RESOLVED FIXED.
@Aaron, the uploaded ogg files is fine, it just hits our memory limits for image scaling (currently 400Mb). Decoding the given 1080p Ogg Theora video would require >1087 Mb for image scaling with avconv. oggThumb is able to create a thumb with a lot less memory (<40Mb) but requires a local copy or local path. Not sure why transcodes are not processed though.
Good news in regards to the file being okay. Because there was no error indication from ffmpeg2theora whatsoever. I hope you guys can fix transcodes and the thumb image, because the video is a great one indeed. And I'd like to reembed it into the ALMA articles. -- Best regards, Martin
Apparently the file was somehow broken[1] and was reverted[2] — can someone please look into it?[3] == References == * [1] The file looked OK to me when I viewed & tested it on my sister's Win7-based box back in March/April. * [2] https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:The_movie_ALMA_%E2%80%94_In_Search_of_our_Cosmic_Origins.ogv * [3] My current, ancient box does not work well with any videos, so I'm not really able to test that at this time, sorry!
(In reply to comment #14) > Apparently the file was somehow broken[1] and was reverted[2] Current version is from September 13, 2013. If there is really something broken it would be good to know which exact version (and how and where to see that "brokenness").
(In reply to comment #15) > Current version is from September 13, 2013. If there is really something > broken it would be good to know which exact version (and how and where to see > that "brokenness"). Apologies for the lack of clarity, Andre; I don't know what was broken myself, and only posted comment 14 to report that the file was reverted. Note that for some reason, I can't view the file with the built-in media player we use on Commons, but when I click on 'Full resolution' and use the video plugin for my browser (VLC media player Web Plugin 2.0.6 [from VLC 2.2.0-git] on a Firefox 25.0.1), the file plays fine and with breathtaking quality. So if there is anything wrong with the way the file plays, it's probably due to a bug somewhere else, because the video itself is just fine. Therefore closing this as RESOLVED FIXED.
