I suggest to look at the admin files for upload then. Generally I would suggest to read the object model tutorial if you haven't already.

Okay i will.

thanks again, much appreciated

I'm so glad I saw this thread. It looks like [b]marjolein[/b] figured it out but I'm confused by what he/she wrote:

Quote:I also added .ipad()to the flowplayer call in flowplayer3.php.
Even with the documentation I don't know where to put this code.
Also, do I have to change any plugin settings, i.e., disable 'Autoplay' and/or 'Splash image'?
If I don't get my videos working on an iPad my wife will stare at me with disappointing eyes. Heheh.. Any help is much appreciated.

You need to make your own custom flowplayer plugin by modifying the existing one.

As said before FLowplayer will play even without on iDevices if the correct movie format is used (mp4 that is).

Thanks but mp4 doesn't do the trick, I still get that prompt to "Install latest Flash player.." I tried uploading an m4v but zenphoto doesn't seem to read it. Not that I'm complaining... zenphoto is an absolutely outstanding and brilliant cms. I would cry if I had to live without it.
I was kinda hoping someone would know what line to put that bit of code, as I'm not adept enough to create my own plugin.

The flowplayer site says it would play directly by default. I don't have any iDevices so I neiter can help nor test anything (although I am Mac user otherwise).

I have put adding that iPad plugin to the official plugin on my list for Zenphoto 1.4.2 (scheduled December 1st). It will probably sometime before that in the developlement nightly build.

Zenphoto does not recognize .m4v currently, only the generic .mp4. It is planned to change that for 1.4.2 as well. There are also plans to make a proper jPlayer (jplayer.org) plugin (There is a 3rd party one only for audio playlists).

Acrylian, you guys have an amazing product here. I'll be looking forward to the next update. In the meantime I'll keep tinkering along. Thanks for your help.

Just thought I'd pop some info in this thread based on my own experiences.

As Marjolein stated above,there are some tweaks you can make to Flowplayer to get it to play mp4 videos embedded in ZenPhoto on the iPad instead of going full screen (on the iPhone they will only play full screen).

Download and copy flowplayer.ipad-3.2.2.min.js to your /zp-core/zp-extensions/flowplayer directory.

Now you need to make two changes to flowplayer3.php:

Add the following line underneath the similar ones within the flowplayer2JS function:

Thanks, that will be in Zenphoto 1.4.2.
