UPLOAD MOD Help me test? :-)

[pir8radio]

hey, I am testing jquery upload on my subsonic server... I was hoping some of you could help me test by logging into my server and uploading something! If you upload any mp3's I will, of course delete them shortly after i receive them.. I need to see if large files upload, maybe a large zip, or video? And please post some input... it works best with google chrome... IE doesnt show feedback but it still uploads...

THanks!

hi, looks great. works nice:!:

if its stable and you agree, i would like to implement this in the Madsonic Mashup!

best regards

So I decided to check this out, and here is what I notice:



Looks like 1GB is the max file size? Most of my music is FLACs which would work fine...but trying movies and then TV shows, the screenshot above should show my results. Maybe an option to set an upload size limit? Also, if someone uploaded a zip...I assume it would just go to the set upload dir? Would it be hard to implement an extraction?

I also think you should consider allowing MadEvil add this to MadSonic. I love MadSonic and a lot of other mods are integrated, with permission of course.

MadEvil: I didnt write this. Google "JQuery Upload blueimp" I only modified it to work wiht and suit my subsonic needs. You may like the other features that i have removed from the code. However i would like to see it in your madsonic mashup!

tycoonbob: I set a 1GB limit becuase i only deal with music files on my site.. but as long as you setup the webserver to allow LONG posts then you can pretty much do any size you can do with a regualr "post" upload (like the default subsonic upload).

Nice PoC
But I think a better upload mod would benefit some cool features like:
- Automatic detection of ID3 Tag Artist & album to put file in correct folder (once the file finishes upload)
- And/or manually selecting folder on server to upload to, with a more keen interface than a dumb path box
- Automatic unzipping of zip files and subsequent correct placement in folders according to ID3 tags

Very nice , i hope we can run this in subsonic, instead of a popup, but still very nice.

Yea thats what i thought too.. i initially had the upload run in the main window... looked cool, but it gets boring...... if your uploading a bunch of files you have to leave that main window alone, you cant browse around or play new songs... once you leave that window it breaks the upload... so i decided to may it a popup on my site... so you can still browse and listen to music.. well long story short it will work within subsonic.

[pir8radio]

Well i modified the upload page to run within subsonic..... i just added a javascript call to "warn" the user before they leave or close the uploads page... so current uploads don't get canceled. Does that make you feel warm and fuzzy muiz?

[pir8radio]

I agree, depending on how tech savvy people are you can run automated tasks on your upload folder... mine uses mp3gain, then runs them through jaikoz tag and rename, them moves them to another folder all via the OS. I personally wouldn't want to automate the moving of the songs to the actual music folders... what if the uploaded version sucks.. sure maybe the file size is larger, but what if it has one of those dumb audio commercials in the middle of the song.. now my good copy just got over written.. This is as close as i can get for "my" needs anyway...

I just switched to an applet based upload that will accept 10Gb+ uploads.. I have not tested outside of my firewall yet... But if one of you guys get bored, upload a video to test the new version for me!

same login info as the first post.
