Melissa,

I'd strongly urge you to consider using ffmpeg or even ffmpeg-php to convert the video from most of those formats to FLV, and stream it with in an SWF. (Google "FLVPlayer" for open source code to generate an SWF player that streams FLV files with Ming/PHP.) Or at least, use ffmpeg to convert 3gp and some of the other troublesome formats to MP4, MOV, or AVI...

Ido

Hi all,

I'm producing a project with a video upload component... Its a php, mysql solution. Wondering if any of you have tips/ experiences doing this kind of thing.
I'm thinking of restricting to the following formats:

avi, asf, wmv, mpg, mp4, fla, swf, mov, 3gp

with a 20MB limit per person for their total uploads.
Is it only quick-time playback that enables 3gp? We are really trying to encourage mobile phone content.
Are there any formats that you would stay clear of?
Thanks!
Melissa
