--- Comment #1 from Michael Dale <[email protected]> 2011-05-27 23:39:49 UTC --- thanks for the bug reports, Do we want to limit this to admins? or expose this to general users in the case where the fail failed to transcode and some time has passed? I imagined that when we update ffmpeg we would run a maintenance script that would clear out all the failed transcodes, and the value of exposing a retry button to end users would be of limited usefulness. ( i.e it would only help in cases where things went very very wrong on our back end ) Or worse a broken encode gets re-tried and re-tried by everyone because ffmpeg / our system thinks its successful but its really broken ... If the user wanted to retry they would do good to upload a different copy of the asset if they had one available ( once bug 29179 is fixed ) Maybe we do a middle ground and only expose this to privileged users of some kind? and if we find people need to do it a lot we can broaden its privilege exposure? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
