File for preset 'normal' not found - clipbucket conversion issues

Posted by Sarath On Friday, March 29, 2013 25 comments
If you see this error in ‘File conversion details’of Clipbucket admin_area, to resolve the error do the following :
Download presets from : www.mediasoftpro.com/downloads/Presets.zip
Unzip and upload the presets to /usr/local/share/ffmpeg folder
Thats all.. now you are good to upload videos to your Clipbucket site. If you have any questions, let me know.

      You uploaded all presets to /usr/share/ffmpeg? (If /usr/share/ffmpeg does not exist, try /usr/local/share/ffmpeg). Check if libx264-normal.ffpreset file exists in the folder. If not, upload the file to /usr/share/ffmpeg.

    Now, I get this ouput:

    Stream #0:2: Data: none
    /usr/local/share/ffmpeg/libx264-normal.ffpreset: Invalid option or argument: 'directpred=3
    ', parsed as 'directpred' = '3'

    You are getting the error because your preset file contains the option "directpred" which is now called "direct-pred". Please try with this preset file : http://sar.mathusps.com/libx264-normal.ffpreset

    Thank you Sarath,

    this error is gone. Do you maybe know why this message appears "Failed to stat file"?

    Greatz and thanks!

    Happy to help.. :)

    Regarding the "Failed to stat file" error, can you please check the video conversion details from ClipBucket admin area and paste the full error message? There should be some error above the line "Failed to stat file..." which is the actual cause of the issue.

    Also, please refer the following docs. The first one contains Clipbucket video conversion settings and the second one contains common conversion issues and their fixes,

    1) http://docs.clip-bucket.com/video-conversion-settings
    2) http://docs.clip-bucket.com/how-to-fix-video-conversion-problem

    I think the conversion settings are all Ok.

    if I go to menue-point "my account" I get

    Not Found
    The requested URL /my_account was not found on this server.

    or if I go to "my channel" ->

    Not Found
    The requested URL /user/admin was not found on this server.

    It is hard to tell what is causing these issues without checking the server and logs. Was there any changes done to the site? Like changing installation folder or migrating site from another server?
    If you have all folders, files in place "Not found" error may be because of either mod_rewrite is not installed or RewriteEngine is turned off in your .htaccess file. Please refer the below post for testing rewrite module :
    http://sar-thelinuxstudent.blogspot.in/2013/06/testing-modrewrite.html
    Also make sure RewriteBase is set correctly. If you have installed clipbucket inside a sub folder such as clip you should use the following RewriteBase
    RewriteBase /clip/

    Regarding Video conversion issue, from the error :

    Invalid aspect ratio: 0
    Failed to stat file /var/www/mysite/htdocs/files/videos/137831789625dea.flv!
    Failed to stat file /var/www/mysite/htdocs/files/videos/137831789625dea.flv!

    It is most probably due to the ffmpeg version you are using. Which ffmpeg version you have in your server? I would recommend trying a different ffmpeg version.

    Glad to hear that.. :)

    >> What do you think may this Version cause the problems?

    I am not sure if this version of ffmpeg has issues. But looking at the errors, I will recommend trying a different version of ffmmpeg. Since you are on Debian, please refer : http://www.vimp.com/en/documentation-faq-article/items/howto-compile-ffmpeg-for-ubuntu-and-debian.html

    If I start manual video_convert.php I get this warning:

    video:23kB audio:0kB subtitle:0 global headers:0kB
    muxing overhead -100.091916%

    Warning: Division by zero in /var/www/phpmotion.meintalent.tv/htdocs/includes/classes/conversion/ffmpeg.class.php on line 655

    Can this cause a failed status?

    I think my ffmpeg Version is the newest one Version 1.2.3

    I have seen the same error before, where latest ffmpeg version was causing the issue and downgrading ffmpeg did the trick. That's why I suggested you to try a different ffmpeg version. The below thread is about the same error/issue : http://code.google.com/p/clipbucket/issues/detail?id=399

    Also "Nameless"(FFmpeg 2.0.1)is the latest stable ffmpeg version not FFmpeg 1.2.3 "Magic". As you continuously have many issues, I would also recommend seeking help on ClipBucket Forum.

    Hi Sarath,

    you were right because of ffmpeg-version. But with ffmpeg 2.0.1 I wasn't successfull. But with this Version everything will be converted fine.

    wget http://www.bstack.net/repo/ffmpegauto/ffmpegauto_v3.1.zip
    unzip ffmpegauto_v3.1.zip
    chmod 777 *
    ./install.sh

    Thanks a lot for your help!
    Best regards!

    Hello,

    Sorry for the delay in responding. Download presets from : www.mediasoftpro.com/downloads/Presets.zip

    It has files ending .ffpreset, upload them in following directories :

    - /usr/share/ffmpeg
    - /usr/local/share/ffmpeg

    Libfaac is audio codec. Make sure your ffmpeg is compiled with 'libfaac'. Otherwise it will not process your video.

    Apologies for the late response. You can use locate, which commands to locate ffmpeg path and files. If you need any assistance in locating the path, feel free to email me.
