Uploading media files only works with a file browse dialogue.

Many similar sites or services allow to drag&drap files from the file browser over the application/browser window. This results in the dropped files to be queued and uploaded one after another.

Because of this issue I have installed X server and latest chromium browser on my home Archlinux based server. I can played the attached test.webm file directly on the chromium instance on my server without a problem. But after uploading the same test.webm file to my mediagoblin installation (on the same server) embedded video player produces only sound - no video.

Please use an attached test.webm file for testing purposes.

So, I suspect this could be a transcoding problem (Yes this test.webm filie was transcoded).

I created an account at a media goblin site and uploaded a video. Was told woohoo success. Yet there was no video to be seen.

Perhaps this glitch happened because I didn't allow JavaScript?
