Lightbox Ultimate – Can't get lightbox to show s3 videos, help

[cflyrun]

I have the access/secret key set from amazon and the shortcode copied from the documentation but when I try to load the video I get this error:

200, Stream not found, NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound, clip:'[Clip]’http://bucketname.s3.amazonaws.com/?AWSAccessKeyID=*randomkeyhere*&Expires=….

then a bunch of other random numbers.

my bucket name has no capitol letters or non-alphanumeric characters in it.

Thanks,

Please post a link to the page where you are using the shortcode. It usually happens when the player can’t find the video. You need to make sure that the video and bucket name are correct.

You can do the following steps which will help you resolve the issue-

First, keep the video public so that you can directly access it from outside. Now create a page and place the following shortcode –

[wp_lightbox_flowplayer_anchor_text_video link=”https://s3.amazonaws.com/your-bucket-name/your-video.mp4″ width=”640″ height=”480″ text=”Click here to open the video”]

Does the video play fine in overlay? If it does you can move to the protected shortcode.

Change the video to private again. Now use the following shortcode –

[wp_lightbox_flowplayer_anchor_text_protected_s3_video name=”your-video.mp4″

bucket=”your-bucket-name” width=”640″ height=”480″ text=”click here to open the s3

protected video”]

Let me know how it goes.

The video is an FLV video, and no, I can’t get it to play in overlay. For the moment I’m using ProPlayer with an unlisted Youtube video but I don’t really want to stick with that solution

I’m trying to display videos on a members only page so unless you’ve got the password you won’t be able to view the full article content including the video link.

Can you please create a test user and send me the login details? Please also post the exact shortcode you are using. For now keep the FLV video public so I can test it out on my server.

I’m having the same issue, however, I can see the video play in overlay, but not in protected mode.

@keving, Can you please post a link to the page? which shortcode are you using?

I’m having the same problem. The overlay does work, unprotected. – that’s the second link. Also, for some reason, they are not appearing as pop-up windows with the nice lightbox effect. Please help. Thanks.

Here’s my page: http://www.forexartofwar.com/level-1-test/

The two shortcodes I have on the page are:

[wp_lightbox_protected_s3_video name=”Live_Forex_Trade_012913.mp4″ bucket=”tradeoftheweek” width=”640″ height=”480″ source=”/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/video_icons_l1_1.gif”]

[wp_lightbox_flowplayer_video link=”https://s3.amazonaws.com/tradeoftheweek/Live_Forex_Trade_012913.mp4″ width=”640″ height=”480″ source=”/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/video_icons_l1_1.gif”]

Hi, I checked the page source and found the following error:

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'style' of null   jquery.newsticker.js:25

You need to make sure that there is no JavaScript error when the page loads. Otherwise lightbox popup may not work. Here is how you can check for JavaScript error:

Lightbox Ultimate – Debugging JavaScript Errors

As for the “200 stream error”, try using a simple name for the video file. For example: tofweek.mp4. Did you check if your Amazon S3 credentials have been entered correctly in the Lightbox Ultimate Settings?

[yanner11]

Thanks for the info. I will try what you suggested and post back.

I managed to get the secured video playing using the S3 protected files anchor code. However, after removing all the javascript errors, I’m still unable to get the videos to load in a lightbox pop-up window. It’s still loading the page: http://www.forexartofwar.com/level-1-test/

Here are my library settings:

PrettyPhoto Settings – unchecked

Fancybox Settings – enabled

ColorBox Settings – unchecked

WP Lightbox Special Settings – unchecked

Flowplayer Settings – enabled

HTML5 Settings – enabled

HTML Overlya Related Settings – unchecked

Please help. Thanks.

The video plays fine now but if you click on the shortcode image you will see that there is still an error. I’m guessing its happening because there are multiple copies of flowplayer.js on the same page.

Can you please deactivate the following plugin to see if it changes anything?

fv-wordpress-flowplayer

[yanner11]

Once I disabled fv-wordpress-flowplayer, it worked like a charm Thank you so very much!!! It looks awesome now!

You’re welcome.

Hi

I am having the same problem. I am getting the message 200, stream not found. The video is working when unprotected. I have checked and double checked the bucket name and file name and they are the same as in my S3 account. I have checked the security credientials and they are correct.

here is the shortcode I am using at the moment. [wp_lightbox_flowplayer_anchor_text_protected_s3_video name=”open_your_heart1.mp4″

bucket=”openyourheart” width=”640″ height=”480″ text=”click here to open the s3

protected video”]

I have also tried this shortcode: [wp_lightbox_anchor_text_protected_s3_video name=”open_your_heart.mp4″ bucket=”openyourheart” width=”640″ height=”480″ text=”click here to open the s3 protected video”]

A couple of things I noticed. I have watched the videos. When I try to play the video without html5 enabled it gives me a message saying I need to enable it. Also the shortcode button doesn’t give me the option for flowplayer protected videos, only non-protected.

Also, one other question. Can you have your videos in a folder in a bucket or must they be directly in the bucket?
