PHP - Need Help Creating A Simple Video File Server
Hi. I am trying to create a simple video file server. I finished the skeleton of it but when it came to creating the multitude of pages I realized that there could be an easier way to do it.
I started out basically getting the folder names in the server then printing them on the page.
<?php $dirs = glob("*", GLOB_ONLYDIR); echo '<ul>'; foreach($dirs as $dir) { $forbidden_folders = array("not4u", "ignore", Styles); $filename = str_replace($forbidden_folders, '', $dir); if (!empty($filename)) { echo '<li><a href="'.$dir.'">'.$dir.'</a></li>'; } } echo '</ul>' ?>Then I created in each of the folders with files a php file with this code: <?php function date_sort_desc($a, $b) { preg_match('/\w+ \d{4}/', $a, $matches_a); preg_match('/\w+ \d{4}/', $b, $matches_b); $timestamp_a = strtotime($matches_a[0]); $timestamp_b = strtotime($matches_b[0]); if ($timestamp_a == $timestamp_b) return 0; return $timestamp_a < $timestamp_b; } $files = array(); $dir = opendir('.'); while(false != ($file = readdir($dir))) { if(($file != ".") and ($file != "..") and ($file != "index.php")) { $files[] = $file; } } natsort($files); $i = 0; foreach($files as $file) { $i++; $string = str_replace("TV Show Name S1 E$i - ", '' , $file); echo '<div><a href="../Discriptions/'.$file.'.php">'.basename($string, '.m4v').'</a></div><br>'; } ?>This opens up a php file with the same file name as the file to be played containing the episode's thumbnail and description. That file then contains a link pointing back to the real file. The problem here is that I'd have to make a new php file for every file in my collection. I'm wondering if there's somehow a way to simplify all of this. Edited by chrisyroid, 11 August 2014 - 12:13 AM. Similar Tutorialshello dear PHP-experts have set up a server at localhost with phpMyAdmin i get back the site " it works " if i type in localhost i get access to the phpMyAdmin if i type localhost/phpMyAdmin so far so good now i wanted to go ahead: i ve uploaded a file called php_info.php to the htdocs folder. i changed permissions accordingly.

I have a PHP web system that store in a windows server. In the system, there is a function for user to upload files to another server (Shared server in Unix). When i try to upload a file, it gives warning: Warning: move_uploaded_file(\\unixserver/sharedfolder/upload/test.txt) [function.move-uploaded-file]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in C:\wamp\www\upload\index.php on line 40 For your information, my username has been assigned in xxx's group that has access to read and write on that folder. Besides, i'm able to open,create and delete files on that folder's server manually (samba). The safe mode setting is off. Does anybody has any idea why this thing happen? Hello,
How can I make gif from video while uploading it or after uploaded? Is there any tutorial.. I've been searched but didn't found anything.
The reason I want this is because when I upload video then I will show few thumbnails of the video on the page. Then when user hover the video will play short gif from the video 2-5 seconds and when the user click on video will play the video.. Hope you get what I mean.. I don't know how to explain it better. Just point me somewhere to read or watch about this..
Thank's in advanced!
p.s. Sorry for my English!
EDIT:
Here is the exaplme.. when you hover over the video an hold your mouse there it will play some gif

I am wanting to move a couple of files from my current server to another. If i am uploading the file this is fine but if it is already on the server then im not sure how to move it. When uploading I can just use ftp_put($conn_id, $destination_file, $myFile, FTP_BINARY); What i need to do is figure out how to get a hold of the file and store it in $myFile then this would work fine. Is this possible? Cheers I have written a piece of code that create a directories, files on the server using mkdir and touch and also inserts the form data into the table.. the code gets executed and the info gets stored in the database but the part which has the create directories. and files dont work as it doesnt create the directory and files on the server.. do i need to make changes to the php.ini file to enable the mkdir and touch feature to get enabled? as i said the code executes without any error.. I dont know wat to do.. please any help would be appreciated!! thanku Is it possible to do this? fpdf just opens a dialog box asking the user to save the pdf instead of saving it on the server. Also, is it possible to create a pdf from the data in a mysql table with PHP? Thanks! Hi, Well I have been working on Php for quite sometime but creating Word Docs is something I am totally new to. I googled about this and found different methods of creating word documents via php. The most promising one that I found involves writing HTML code and inside header, save it as a *.doc file (I know thats not exactly a Word File but what else can be done). Like this, Code: [Select] header("Content-type: application/vnd.ms-word"); header("Content-Disposition: attachment; Filename=Report.doc"); The whole word document came out perfectly fine, but there was one little problem (later on turned out to be the BIGGEST one) was placing images in the document. All the images were saved on a secure server so like we do in HTML, I used the following line of code, <img src="https://somewebaddress/users.png" /> The word document appeared to be fine for me, but when that document was sent to the client, client was unable to view the images. Now, I guess you all know what my question would be, and that is, is there a way we could somehow make this work. I even tried downloading all the images to disk and giving their path, still in the end, the document only needs to be sent to the client and images do not appear. Please help me in this regards, Thanks in advance to all P.S. Please see the following sample (mini) code of the real thing, real document is a bit toooooooo big and kind of confidential Code: [Select] <?php header("Content-type: application/vnd.ms-word"); header("Content-Disposition: attachment; Filename=Report.doc"); ?> <html> <head> <title>TCS Monthly Report $month $year</title> </head> <body> <b><h3> Monthly Operational User Statistics</h3></b> <br> The red line is users logged in over the month. The green area is users recently logged in (last few days).<br> <br><img src="https://somewebaddress/users.png" /> </body> </html> Hey everyone, I'm pretty new to this, not my full time job, but just something I thought I'd give a shot... I have a database, in postgres, in which I make my query and I go fetch all the info I need. What I need to do next is the tricky part for me. For each line of results received, I have to output to a text file (.txt) but I have to respect a format that was given to me from the person requesting the info. Example: Character 1 must be G or N. Character 2 to to 11 will be a result from my database search, which is a 10 digit string. Character 12 to 14 must be spaces. Another rule is: start at character 78: input a value from my database search but it must not exceed 20 characters and if it is less then 20 character, fill the remaining with spaces. If anyways has a code I can copy and work off of I would really appreciate it....thanks! Anyone know how I can print a file (specifically a PDF) that is stored on the server to the clients computer with a button? I don't want them to be able to view it, just print it. I've done some research and understand that there is no way to print directly without popping up the Windows Print dialog. And that is fine. I just want them to print this file, but not no where it is or be able to type in a URL to access it. Thanks Mike Hi, I have made a basic html site and it has two forms on it. I have the forms linking to a file called process.php. Basically i need to know what code to put in the php file in order for the forms to save whatever is entered in them to a txt file on my server or computer. Or any other easier way to do the same thing, save the content of two forms on my site. Hope i posted this in the right forum subject. Thanks very much for anyone that helps. helloi'm desperately trying to create a simple chatbox for my website using php and whateverthe logged in user posts to there box then gets wrote to a sql database called km_babble and then displayed in the room for others to read. the max number of posts per box should be like 15 or so .. can someone assist me or lead me to docs that will help? thanks much in advance OK, here it is. I have been trying to do this myself, but it has been driving me insane and I turn to professionals here for help.
I am a basic web developer for a company that I work for in other capacities. I have a reasonable understanding of HTML and that is about where my expertise ends. I am not typically a programmer, just a simple (extremely) part time designer that uses Muse and Dreamweaver when necessary.
However, recently my company has asked me to accomplish a task for their website. In plain English, they want a large database that exists currently as a CVS file made into a searchable web page. It is 21 columns by approximately 6,700 rows.
To explain what I need a little more technically, here are my ideas and where I have gotten to so far:
1. The company uses godaddy, into which I *believe* I have successfully imported the spreadsheet. I believe it is successful because through godaddy's SQL Control Panel (phpMyAdmin console), I can do the EXACT searches that the company needs, and it spits out the EXACT results that I need.
2. The end result needs to be a .php that I can upload to the website's root folder that can be then inserted into premade pages using:
<iframe src="SMQ.php" scrolling="yes" width="950" height="800"></iframe>3. On the .php page, I need to have a way to log in to the SQL server and a simple search box built in that will allow the user to input a very simple search string consisting of no more than 4 numbers and 3 letters at a time. No buttons, no check boxes, just a search box. 3. This query then needs to be output as a nice data table, similar to this: This in fact is a screenshot of a search I performed out of my SQL database, in phpMyAdmin using the column "Scott" for the search, and the number 226 as the search term. All column names are visible with the exception of the first column, entitled LINEID, made to be the key, and the output should not include the key but have everything else as above. 4. I can see what the simple line of php is that performed this task: SELECT * FROM `SMQSQL` WHERE `Scott` = '226' ORDER BY `LINEID` ASCbut I can't figure out how the hell to get this incorporated to a .php search. To sum it up, I need a .php page written that can connect to a SQL database, perform a data based search, and spit out a clean table when it is done. I had accomplished this in the past using an import into google docs and using it to perform a search and result display via the following code built into a php called SMQ.php: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> <title>Example of Google Spreadsheet Data Visualisation</title> </head> <body> <form id="form1" method="post" action ="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>"> <label> <input id="search" name="search" type="text" /> </label> <label> <input id="Scott #" name="Scott #" type="submit" value="Scott #" /> </label> <img src="loading.gif" width="16" height="11" /> </form> <p> <?php $search= $_REQUEST['search']; if ($search > ''){ $search = $search;} else { $search = '';} ?> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.google.com/jsapi"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> google.load('visualization', '1', {packages: ['table']}); </script> <script type="text/javascript"> var visualization; function drawVisualization() { var query = new google.visualization.Query( 'https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AronCwm9QPefdGpIUllscGgtLUJod2pOazc0bjU0cUE&usp=sharing'); query.setQuery('SELECT A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O ,P ,Q ,R ,S ,T WHERE (A) LIKE ("<?php echo $search; ?>") order by A asc label A "Scott #", B "Den", C "Color", D "Cond", E "40", F "60", G "70", H "70J", I "75", J "75J", K "80", L "80J", M "85", N "85J", O "90", P "90J", Q "95", R "95J", S "98", T "98J"'); query.send(handleQueryResponse); } function handleQueryResponse(response) { if (response.isError()) { alert('Error in query: ' + response.getMessage() + '' + response.getDetailedMessage()); return; } var data = response.getDataTable(); visualization = new google.visualization.Table(document.getElementById('table')); visualization.draw(data, { page: 'enable', page: 16, pageSize: 16, legend: 'bottom'}); } google.setOnLoadCallback(drawVisualization); </script> <div id="table"></div> </div> </body> </html>But as you can see, this may not be the most secure thing in the world, plus we want to be able to expand it in the future and not be so simplistic, hence the need to switch to SQL. Please let me know right away by contacting me at disead@gmail.com if this is something YOU might be able to help with. I'm sure for an experienced programmer, once you have the details from me that you need, it would take maybe 10 minutes to write. I don't have much, but I can pay a little bit for this one time job. If it ends up working out, I may be able to pay more down the line for more advanced options such as being able to do drop-down searches based on the column titled "ISSUE", as well as more things down the line as it grows. Thank you so much, I hope to hear from someone soon!!! This is a section of my code that goes and gets videos from any video site. What I’m having issues with is having it post a random title, that are all in a text file called titles.txt. What I’m wanting to accomplish is have my script go pull the video embed code, the duration, the tags, etc. Which all works fine until I get to the title part where it pulls locally from the server from the text file. I'm not an advance programmer so not sure if I am even approaching this correct way. Here is the code I have that is responsible for putting the title in. I appreciate your help. $video = array( ‘user_id’ => $this->user_id, ‘status’ => $this->status, ‘site’ => ‘my site’, ‘id’ => ‘’, ‘embeddable’ => true, ‘url’ => ‘’, ‘titles’ => ‘’, ‘title’ => ‘’, ‘description’ => ‘’, ‘tags’ => ‘’, ‘category’ => ‘’, ‘thumbs’ => array(), ‘duration’ => 0, ‘embed’ => ‘’ ); function random_title () { $titles = file (“titles.txt”, FILE_IGNORE_NEW_LINES); $num = rand (0, intval (count ($titles) / 3)) * 3; return ucwords($titles[$num]); } //Title if(preg_match(’/title="(.*?)"/’, $match, $matches_title)) { $video[‘title’] = random_title(). ’ - My site name’; } else { $this->errors[] = ‘Failed to get video title for ‘.$video[‘url’].’!’; if (!$this->debug) continue; else $debug_e[] = ‘TITLE’; }
Have page#1 with thumbs view_thumbs.php , when a thumb is clicked thumb link goes to page#2 which is the video_play.php page(which must play embed codes from xml sheet) Using GET method to identify incoming link from page#1. QUESTION is how can i retrieve file(embed code) from xml to play on page#2 with incoming GET info from page#1? (embeds not you only from you tube, so no youtube solutions only, just retrieve file) I somehow have to fill play video div on page#2/video_play.php according to GET data from page#1/view_thumbs.php Hi guys, I'm currently in the process of making a simple social networking type site for a uni project and have basically everything i want except the ability to use AJAX to link to my profiles in the search bar. I have this code to generate my XML: Code: [Select] <?php // create simplexml object $xml = new SimpleXMLElement('<rss version="2.0"></rss>'); // add channel information $xml->addChild('channel'); $xml->channel->addChild('title', 'The Social Network'); $xml->channel->addChild('link', 'http://reecesayer.com/projects/template/XML/news.rss'); $xml->channel->addChild('description', 'example'); // query database for article data include("phpfunctions.php"); db_connect(); $link = "www.reecesayer.com/projects/template/testprofile.php?id="; $select='SELECT email, id FROM users'; $result = mysql_query($select) or die(mysql_error()); while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { // add item element for each article $item = $xml->channel->addChild('item'); $item->addChild('email', $row['email']); $item->addChild('link', $row['id']); //I wanted to add a link before the $row['id'] } // save the xml to a file $xml->asXML('profiles.xml'); header ('Location: http://reecesayer.com/projects/template/XML/profiles.xml'); ?> I need to add a partial URL (http://reecesayer.com/projects/template/testprofile.php?id=) before the row is called so that when the email is searched it provides a link to the profile depending upon the id (http://reecesayer.com/projects/template/testprofile.php?id=8) Is there an easier way to do this or am i going the long way around? I'm only storing the data in XML as i saw a tutorial for a livesearch script on another site. Cheers, Reece Anyone know of a script that will allow you to upload a file and converts it to a specified file format? Folder layout: script/ script/videos/mp4/ } script/videos/ogg/ } folders for converted files from uploaded files script/videos/webm/ } script/videos/swf/ } Video player: Code: [Select] <video width="320" height="240" controls="controls"> <source src="script/videos/mp4/<? echo $movie; ?>.mp4" type="video/mp4" /> <source src="script/videos/ogg/ <? echo $movie; ?> .ogg" type="video/ogg" /> <source src="script/videos/webm/ <? echo $movie; ?> .webm" type="video/webm" /> <object data="script/videos/mp4/ <? echo $movie; ?> .mp4" width="320" height="240"> <embed src="script/videos/swf/ <? echo $movie; ?> .swf" width="320" height="240"> Your browser does not support video </embed> </object> </video> I have searched and searched the web for an answer and cannot find one pleas help? Hi I have a form which is used to upload files to my server, now i need to move files to another server as soon they are uploaded, but move_uploaded_file will work with local server where form has been submitted. i was thinking to add some ftp functions to upload that file to remote server but is there any better way? that user dont notice ftp connection timing. i wants to use less ftp connections and user should not notice delay timing for image upload. Thanks for any suggestion. Is it possible to allow a script running on another server to write/read a specific file on my server? I can set file permissions, but not having any luck with file paths due to php5 blocking http:// urls. Hello, Ive got a script that downloads a file to my server. I want to be able to download a file from a site such as FileServe using my premium details. Ive tried http://username:password@fileserve.com/file.rar but that dosent work, It just downloads a tiny small 30kb file. Is there a way i can set a cookie or somthing so my script has access to download file using my premium account? Thanks in advance |
