ffmpeg should be installed correctly.

But I don't understand how this error happens.

Is it a problem with the video file itself?

But I've tried several different MP4 files.

Never said anything about FFmpeg not being installed. I showed you how the system pass the upload to ffprobe, if that tells me "invalid file" then that's what Chevereto gets. Most likely the file is corrupted or your FFmpeg package doesn't support the file you are trying to upload.

Try with Chevereto Docker.

 

[Thirsty Tuck]

I have had all these same issues and tried several approaches. URL link (which does nothing) to include various MP4 resolutions with same error. Please advised as this was a selling point for me to sign on with the PRO version. Time is $$$! 🤔THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!!!

Please see attached... #3... snapshot = Size: 126.3 MB, File: MP4, Resolution: HD1920x1080p

Please, this is self-hosted software. You must to do your part, which is to enable debug and show me these messages. I don't have access to your websites, I don't have access to your logs, you must provide the error logs.

Same error getting "Invalid video file provided (610)"

Same error, same response. Chevereto just pass the file to FFprobe binary and if FFprobe command output says "invalid file" then that's what Chevereto gets. Chevereto rely on FFprobe for detection, simple as that.

I can't help you any further, the issue you have here is between you and the FFprobe binary.

Perhaps the file is corrupted or maybe the FFmpeg is outdated in your systems. Try uploading these videos as a zip to Google Drive to test on my own.

 

[user_4735f]

I found a solution to fix the error. You can edit your PHP configuration file and remove proc_open and proc_close from the disable_functions setting.

I discovered this solution by commenting out this code:

if (!$ffprobe->isValid($file)) {
  throw new Exception("Invalid video file provided", 610);
}

This revealed the actual error message: "The Process class relies on proc_open, which is not available on your PHP installation."

@user_4735f Thanks, I've added two patches for covering this situation which will improve dealing with these issues. Patch #1 and Patch #2.

after removing proc_open and proc_close, it is working fine now. Thanks for the solution.

 

[user_0094e]

After open proc_open and proc_close functions,Video can be uploaded now.

But after open video link show



Didn't see the video thumbnail generated either.

What caused it?

 

[Rodolfo]

What caused it?

Thumb wasn't generated, the system expects the thumb to always being generated.

 

[user_0094e]

Thumb wasn't generated, the system expects the thumb to always being generated.

Weird, I even open exec and shell_exec.

But it still reports an error.

Was any of the permissions not given enough?





The file is a vertical video shot on a cell phone.

I looked at the video thumbnail file that was generated.

It just doesn't show up on the web side.

After clicking Delete, the file remains in the folder.

Have you managed to fix this error?
I have the same issue

No, the problem is still there.

I updated to v4.1.1, even though the ffmpeg environment should be fine.



I tried to download a video from demo.chevereto.com to upload to my site.



Uploading is fine now.

But, came up thumbnail issue.



I found that it should be a file permissions issue.



I manually changed the 600 to 644 and the thumbnails show up.





But opening the link still reports an error > Undefined array key "thumb"

Looked at the server error log.

Guess it could be a problem with my PHP-FPM environment configuration.

Or maybe SSL/HTTPS (private_html) or (public_html) permissions issue?

Or maybe .htaccess issue?

No solution found so far.

 

[sharemyimage]

after removing proc_open and proc_close, it is working fine now. Thanks for the solution.

The video is currently being stored on the local disk instead of being stored on S3, what could be the reason?

Storage needs to be enabled for video, by default existing storage is enabled for images.
