Thank you. I tested QuickTime and it worked!

@jhall,

Please note the custom post types should be added manually, like in the above instruction. Screenshot below:

I will try your solution, but I have one more question.

With my IPad, I received the following error message (mimetype video/quicktime)

4813

. What kind of custom file type should I enter?

This is very strange because I never have gotten this kind of error before.

I have a copy of this website which I had not touched for a month and was able to upload videos on it today with no problem using the same device.

Thanks for your support.

Hi @jhall,

The file mimetype is not correct, thus you will get the following error. It should be video/mp4, not audio/mp4.

However, if you want to use exactly that mimetype, follow the instructions below:

1. Navigate to Dashboard > wpDiscuz > Settings > Comment Content and Media admin page

2. Find and click on the "Add New File Type" button

3. Fill the values as shown in the screenshot, that is:

extension > mp4
mime type(s) (pipe separated) > audio/mp4

4. Save it, delete all caches and check again.

Hi, I can upload images onto my site but not allowed to upload any video. I have Media Uploader 7/05 and WPDiscuz 7/07. I have configured WP Discuz to accept any video file in the media/comment settings. Also, I have been using this plugin for 2 years and this has never happened before. Do you have any ideas why this is happening?
