Quote:SAFE MODE Restriction in effect
Safe Mode is described here: http://php.net/manual/en/features.safe-mode.php

Note that the feature is discouraged, so maybe you should try to talk your provider into not setting it. Also you can ask to be running PHP 5.3.0 as maybe on this version Safe Mode is not set.

Unfortunately, the place you are getting the error is third party software so we really are not in a position to work around the problem (if that is even possible).

This error happens when attempting to process metadata in AVI files. What we can do is disable that functionality if SAFE_MODE is set. That change will be in tonight's nighty build. That should allow you to run.

Zenphoto actually does not support .avi files btw.

Yes, it is a container and not a format technically (as is .mov). But fact is we have no plugin supporting the .avi extension officially.
