Is this also the newest Uploadr for still photos?
I was holding out on downloading 3.0.5 until there had been 24 hours without a bug report in the thread.
Of course, an hour after that occurred, you folks released video!
So, is this a video uploadr or is it 3.0.6 video/still?

At the borrom of the news page for the video atrocity it says
"Bonus (for those who’ve read this far): We’re doubling the size of photos that can be uploaded — 20MB per photo for pro members and 10MB per photo for members with free accounts."
Are any JPEG photos ever over 20mb ? If you've upped the limit to 20 can't you allow TIFFs to remain TIFFs and not transform them into jpegs?

Robertv! (Edinburgh, UK) asked this here
This does not appear to be documented anywhere.
What is the dimensions of the video frame that Flickr is processing to?
Which Codec is best to use, to reduce your processing?
What frame rate should we optimise to?
Should we render as I or P? (Probably P.)
What is your audio sample rate etc for playback?
Knowing these details would help us to create a sharper image and do better pre-processing before uploading.
We could also use these details to reduce overhead and file size which would make things better for Flickr.
Just thinking out loud...

FYI... the Flickr uploadr didn't work on my Windows XP SP1 - gave me an error on installation "Error 1723. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A DLL required for this install to complete could not be run."
Managed to sort it by installing this update to Windows Installer and reinstalling Flickr Uploadr - works fine now.

What happens after this freeze-- do you have to quit the application, or does it eventually fix itself?
Thanks everyone for their help with the new uploadr. We'd like to get feedback from a few more people before we deploy this one to everyone. If you know of any good testers, please send them here for a download!

I don't know if this would be a Flickr Uploadr thing or an iPhoto thing, but I'd love it if the iPhoto keywords would transfer over into the tags field when dragging from iPhoto into Uploadr.
The workaround for the moment (aside from just retyping them) is selecting the keyword field in iPhoto, doing a select-all, copy, then paste into Uploadr, but then the list of works shows up comma separated rather than space separated (probably more a function of how iPhoto's copy routines work), and I have to manually change the commas to spaces.

What I mean by the freeze is that the uploading meter shown in the bottom of the window seems to stop. I can click the cancel button and redo the uploading but then it stops again and again after uploading about 10 to 100 photos. And sometimes, the application just suddenly quit without caution.

the usual crack release from flickr:
- launch app (mac)
- drag in 1 video. it uploads OK
- drag in 2nd video. progress bar never moves from 0%
- hit cancel. try again. nothing happens
- drag in same video. hit upload. progress bar never appears.
- restart app, drag in 2 videos. uploads OK
- drag in 1 photo. uploads OK.
- drag in a video. progress bar never moves from 0%

Also, it does not allow selecting .m4v extensions. However I was able to use web based upload for same extension with success.
EDIT: I have 52MB .mov file. The percentometer moves until around 20%, and stays there. I tried repeatedly 2-3 times. It does the same.
EDIT 2: THis is on OSX.

I tried uploading a 90 second video (about 75MB) using the Flickr Uploadr v 3.1 for Mac OS X (on 10.5.2). It got 91% complete and then stopped progressing. It stayed stuck at 91% for a good 20-30 minutes before I cancelled it. I noticed the following error in the console. I don't know if it's related or not, but maybe it's useful. Oh, and the video is a 960x540 QuickTime using H.264 codec.
Error: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x804b0014 [nsIOutputStream.writeFrom]" nsresult: "0x804b0014 ()" location: "JS frame :: chrome://uploadr/content/upload.js :: anonymous :: line 795" data: no]

.mov files don't work. When I drag the file to the uploadr, it shows up as a yellow triangle with an exclamation point inside of it. I tried uploading it using the web based uploader and it worked... so the problem isn't that flickr doesn't accept .mov files.

You are dropping the ball here Flickr. This new Uploadr has been out for months and has been nothing but problems. Before adding useless and obnoxious features like video, please, PLEASE fix the features that are integral to this site, like YOUR BROKEN PHOTO UPLOADER. As a paid subscriber, I would appreciate a response to this letting me know when the features I paid for and care about having will be working correctly. In the meantime I'll be manually fixing the botched descriptions on my batch upload.

I am using Uploadr for Mac 3.1, however I can't get it to work for me properly. :( It was all fine and dandy, but now when I add a photo or video to the uploadr, I get the little yellow triangle with an exclamation point in it, and I can't get this to go away! I've tried deleting my account from it and adding it again, I've tried uninstalling and deleting the .plist file, but nothing works!
Everytime I uninstall and then reinstall it, my broken files are still there in the uploadr, and it's not asking me to assign a Flickr account to it, it just keeps telling me I need to give it my permission! Which I do over and over again.. but still nothing. HELP!!

This stalls out on Windows for Picture uploads. It uploads the image, but sits at 99% processing and even after 15m has failed to add the image to the proper sets, in fact it doesn't add it to any sets at all.

Sorry, I don't buy this. The exact same things tha rcrowly says were "vanquished" were reported within a dozen posts !

Okay. I got rid of the worthless Uploadr 3.0.5 and installed version 3.1. I launched 3.1 and before using my mouse or keyboard to do anything, Uploadr proceeded to pull in 1000 MB of pictures in the off line mode. I did not ask or request Uploadr to do anything and it is taking off on its on. What's up with that?

MacGirl - were you previously getting yellow triangles appearing where the files should have been in the Uploadr? It would be interesting to know whether the problems with 10.5.2 are the same as those with 10.4.11.

MichaelSmith, I'm using 10.5.2 and I am getting triangles when I drag .mov files to the uploadr (3.1, as I recall). It will upload .avi files, though. I can't get Safari to upload .mov files on the Web upload page, but Firefox does.

Hmm aint accepting my video, they are in WMV format like it said was allowed, one is 32 mb and other is 22 mb in size, both are 1:29 in length (90 secs is of course 1:30) so my videos are 89 secs or less.
Running Windows Vista Ultimate SP 1 1 GB DDR PC2100
When I try to add it, it does its animation of adding the file, then the file shows up with a yellow triange meaning a warning, no msg no nothing. click on it and vanishes :(

There are some issues with metadata that I have added via Geosetter, like keywords and geotags. When highlighting the photo in Uploadr they should show up in the tags box, but the box is empty.
However, if I leave the box alone and upload the photo, the metadata will show up as tags on the photo page, as they should. It would still be nice if I could edit the tags in Uploadr, as I would like to add/delete some for flickr-only purposes.

Why do I need to come to this forum topic to get working software? The main uploader tools page (http://www.flickr.com/tools/) claims that version 3.0.5 (for MacOS) will upload video. That's obviously not true.
Should flickr at least update that page to tell people to come here for the video uploader?

I was a professional computer programmer before retiring. I don't understand why you are using ONE program for uploading BOTH video and photos. It seems to me that your bread and butter was photos and you should develop a solid version of that as your number one priority.
Video must be causing new problems and trying to keep the same version of the uploadr for both is a mistake - in my humble opinion.
I am a pro user and I don't even own a video camera. Why should I have to suffer with frequent upload errors in your bread and butter business?

I am also having issues uploading files. It seems to stop somewhere in the 60s. It just stops. Cancelling it fortunately shows all the titles and descriptions are intact but for some reason it will sometime put all of them into the wrong set and there is no apparent way to remove them from all that incorrect set at once. But the bottom line is please solve the problem that is causing it to stall. Thank you.

Things are getting worse - yesterday I could upload via the home page link. And now the yellow triangle is back. Uploadr 3.1 doesn't recognise .mov files.
Please fix the basic upload system so we can get on with things.
I sense that all this is related in someway to the start of video on Flickr - which I support - but maybe things are caving in?

So, having successly uploaded a video to my photostream, I am now trying to insert it into a discussion. Only Flickr doesn't seem to allow its own code to be used, stripping it out of the comment. Is there a way around that?

Dr Curry The comment fields cannot accept the html that is a part of the embed code. There is a way to post the cover frame's jpg (just use an img src tag and right click the video thumb to get the image location, or use the GM script, Easy Photo Post), but the video will not play inline (because it's just a jog, not a video). If you include the a href tag back to the video page, then people can click-through it to play it.

well, after having big trouble with the earlier 3.0 version, I had high hopes for the 3.1 version .... but I still have residual "files" that the Uploadr is trying to upload from my failed attempts months ago ....
Upon opening the new 3.1, it already has several old files pre-loaded -- they all have yellow triangles, of course ... because the files have been successfully uploaded by 2.4 .... and then I moved them.
Anyway, no amount of 'select-all' or anything else allows me to get rid of these non-existent files. help!

I'm running Mac OSX 10.4.11
I've had Uploadr 3.0.5 giving me duplicate text descriptions for weeks now and it would not let me upload video at all. I uploaded 3.1 and now I can't upload pictures AT ALL. I get the yellow triangle of death. I'm not going to complain too loudly about FREE software but are any bugs being worked out at all?
I agree with meabbot- you should have a "photo uploadr" and a "video uploadr"!

Kay, that was Melmashman that said that, not I. I do not agree with the assessment that there should be two programs for transferring the two types of media. Doesn't make any sense to me; there's no technical difference to transferring one type of file versus another. The technical difference between images and videos comes once the file has been uploaded and is being handled by Flickr.
These bugs are growing pains, not evidence of insurmountable problems. Nevertheless I am aggrevated by the lack of response from the Flickr folks regarding these bugs as I have also seen the yellow triangle; but I am sure they will say something when they have something to say.

I was using uploader 3.0.5. and it worked fine. Then I changed my ISP, and it works, but uploading one picture at a time.
I noticed when I click on the upload button the upload bar goes to 100% immediatly. Also if I click on the lower left arrow to see each photo upload progress, as soon I click on upload it fills 100%. I guess (almost for sure) it is a ISP related issue. It has to be, since with previous connection I didn't have that problem.
I just upgrade to 3.1 version of uploader and the problem persists: the way I'm uploading photos now is one by one: I have to wait a couple of minutes while it shows "Houston we have a problem" error, then I click on "Do nothing" ... and then I delete from the upload list the picture that was uploaded ... it seems that uploader can't identify when a picture was uploaded and go to the next one.
I'm not using any download accelerator. Windows XP SP2, everything up to date. The only change I have made is ISP, with previous one it used to work, with new one is not "turning the page".
I really hope there is a solution for this annoying problem.

3.1 is stalling on video uploads for me. definitely worse on uploads there there are 15 or more videos in a set, but also for smaller ones. seems to be random.

My first test of Uploadr 3.1:
1. Install and Start.
2. Click Add.
3. Browse to a digital camera folder that contains 462 videos.
4. Press Ctrl-A (select all).
5. Click Open.
No files were added.
The files in question are all MPEG-1, recorded by a Sony Cybershot DSC-T1.
Total size of the files: 6,800,577,392 bytes
Largest: 361,819,591 bytes
Smallest: 48,789 bytes
Files over 150 Meg: 7

Follow-up to my previous Uploadr 3.1 test... if I add the files a few at a time (instead of all 462 at once), that seems to work. What's causing the silent failure when adding large numbers of videos?

Follow-up to my follow-up to my previous Uploadr 3.1 test... when I tried to actually upload the files, I got:
"Flickr Uploadr.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
I sent the error to Microsoft: Fault bucket 642388963.
Faulting application flickr uploadr.exe, version 0.0.0.0, faulting module xul.dll, version 0.0.0.0, fault address 0x004ec623.

Prior to dying, Uploadr did upload 17 of the 455 video files. Of those 17 files, Flickr failed to process 2. Those 2 files play fine for me locally. As previously mentioned, all of these files are MPEG-1 created by the same camera.

Version 3.1 for Mac OS still hangs extremely frequently. I'm using 10.4.11 on a Mac Book Pro.

my uploader still isn't working properly. the video problem was fixed with the install of 3.1 (i'm using mac 10.4.11 on a mac mini) but it still hasn't resolved my original problem, which is that it won't keep me signed in and every time i open it and press sign it it tells me i have to authorise it. i've tried revoking the permissions, uninstalling, reinstalling and authorising, but nothing works and it's beginning to really get on my nerves. i love the accessibility of the 3.series but the reliability with 2.5 was much better and i might just go back to that if i can't resolve this!

I would like to explain why I suggest two separate programs used for uploading pictures and video. It is all about VERSION CONTROL and letting customers know that a new presumably better version is available that will effect their need. The way it is now there is know way of knowing whether 3.1 has any improvements for picture uplaoding than 3.0.5. When I have issues I want to go to the newest version, but I don't want to go through the trouble of installing a new version if there are no enhancement for uploading pictures.
Also, keep it simple. Fix bugs related to uploading photos and make the code efficient with one team working on issues related to just photos. If you want to use common programming modules for some aspects of the programs for both pictures and videos that is an internal flickr decision. The version release number however should be improving video OR photos so users know when to install an enhancement that will improve THEIR need. Currently there are a lot of us that are clearly unhappy with the function of uploading pictures which is why we purchased a pro version. I trust fixing this is a high priority. Thank you for reading and considering this idea.
