Hello. I have been working with the Revver API for a little while now, and I now have it to the point where it is remotely uploading videos to my account in Revver. When I run my script, I log into my account and notice the video is in the Processing category of my account. But after about 5-10 minutes, it then ends up in the Error section. I have tried this multiple times and I constantly get the same results.

I have been trying to get this to work using the same video. Thinking it may be a problem with the video, I tried to manually upload it via my Revver account, and everything worked fine. This makes me think it doesn't have to do with my video.

Here's a quick breakdown of what my script does:

1. It gets an upload token via getUploadTokens with the following:

Code:

$api->callRemote('video.getUploadTokens', $count);


2. It then uploads the video via POST through cURL to http://httpupload.revver.com/my-token
3. It then creates the metadata for the video and uses video.create with the following:

Code:

$results = $api->callRemote('video.create', $id, $title, $keywords, $ageRestriction, $options);

where $id is the token generated from step 1.

When I run this script, the ID of the video is returned and the video begins the processing stage on Revver. My problem is I just can't seem to figure out why they always end up in the Error area of my account.

I have scoured the forums and web for answers to this, but have had no luck. If anyone can help me with this, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

Alright, I figured out why I was having this issue. Everything I did in my post above was right. The problem was when I was calling the video via cURL.

Initially, I was trying to call it like this:
http://www.mysite.com/video/vid.mov

But when I changed the path to:
@/full/path/to/vid.mov

Everything worked perfectly. My videos are now uploading to Revver without any issues now, so hopefully this helps someone else out who may be having the same problem.
