Web Upload Glitch

Im looking for suggestions on troubleshooting the Upload process for placing Lightroom web photo galleries online. Ive done it successfully once but have been unable to duplicate that feat. Ive figured out how to do it manually by exporting to my FTP workspace and uploading manually, but every time I try the Upload command direct from Lightroom I get an absolutely instantaneous message saying:
FTP transfer failed with message the server could not be found.
It comes up so fast I wonder if its really trying to find the server at all. I know I have the right server/password data as Ive quintuple checked it many times.
If anyone can point me in the direction of a solution Id be very grateful. If it helps my domain is placed on Network Solutions servers.

Okay, I think I know the answer, since I just fixed the same problem.
I only have the problem at home, not at work. The problem is at home, my wireless modem was plugged into my vonage router which was directly connected to my cable modem. When I I plugged my apple airport extreme 'n' router into the cable modem first, and chained my vonage router off the airport extreme, well, everything worked just fine.
Hope this helps.

How do I compress a 2 min FCP video into 100MB for web upload?

How do I compress a 2 min FCP video into 100MB for web upload?
I have FCP v.7 as a part of FCStudio
OK, this may seem like a stupid question for most of you but I haven't used FCP for years. I am trying to make and upload a 2 min video to the web and don't know how to turn it into a size of 100MB or less.
Yes, I realize that I have Compressor but it does not work on my computer for some reason. I think my laptop is too old for it or something.
It needs to be in one of these formats and I would like to use the highest quality. Suggestions needed for this also since this will be my first attempt at an uploaded video.
.MOV, .WMV, .AVI, .MPG, .3GP, 3G2, .QTL, OR .MP4
Any help would be wonderful!

First, let me apologize for the way we were chatting on your thread while waiting.
Let me summerize what I think we have here:
1. You have a 2 minute show you want to convert to some codec appropriate for high quality presentation, but under 100MB final filesize.
2. You feel you don't want to use Compressor or a preset for YouTube.
3. You're in a hurry.
The fastest and highest quality method of making this conversion is using Compressor. It is designed to do precisely what you ask. The codec you want is H.264.
The YouTube preset is being suggested not because we think you're going to upload the clip to that site, but because the YouTube preset is a remarkably easy way to get a HQ H.264 clip with acceptable filesize. I'm staring at a 3:40 clip of 1080p that would knock your socks off and it's 90MB!
Even on a laptop the conversion is a matter of minutes.
If you're OK with my arguement, I'll write out a step-by-step proc for you and you can be done with this in time for that primetime show you want to watch. OK?

Best setting for personal web upload

Hi all,
I'm trying to export a video for my personal web upload.
I exported a clip of H.264, Middium Quality, Size-below 640xXXX in 16:9 mode. File size about 16MB & bad quality at last!
What's your suggestion setting either via FCP or Compressor for export?
Better quality & better file size ;)
Thanks!!

For each of these select File>Export>Using QT Conversion and in the window thst opens change the "Use" to Broadband High or Medium from the dropdown menu.
As these are for 4:3 you will have to click the Options button and change "Size" to Custom and type in one of the sizes mentioned earlier.
Then open the Settings window and under Data Rate select "Restrict to 750kbps or 300kbps" according to the size you are using.

Scp/ssh support for web upload

I prefer not to pass my credentials in the clear. Please offer a way to support other well-known protocols like scp in the web upload module.

I completely agree -- there are excellent low level API's available for support *much* *safer* and *better* data transfer options than just FTP - I personally want sftp/scp. WebDAV (over SSL in particular) is the other no-brainer as far as I'm concerned.
Yes, you can save the gallery to your local disk, go out and upload, but for a tool that's all about work-flow, this seems really annoying, and given that making a dialog box that allows you to set what protocol and the various options that protocol may require is now a standard practice, it's not like it smacks of the Dreaded Creeping Featurism, IMHO.

Aperture to Picasa Web upload?

I am looking for a way to upload pics from my Aperture library to picasa web. Apparently there used to a plug-in for this developed by ubermind, but that seems to have been discontinued.
Anyway, its not too difficult to upload the pics alone - I am able to do so using the picasa web uploader and selecting the relevant aperture project or album that i want to upload from the "Media" section of the Finder "Browse for file" window.
However, only the pics get transferred this way and not face tags or photo descriptions. Is there a better way of achieveing this? any suggestions much appreciated.

I still found the Aperture Picasa plug-in this morning on a softpedia mirror site: http://mac.softpedia.com/progDownload/Aperture-Picasa-Plugin-Download-50358.htm l; try External mirror 2 r30, but hurry!

BT Cloud - creating folders within the Web uploads...

On the Help pages the question, "Can I upload a folder or multiple files to the BT Cloud Web Client" is answered by explaining how to upload multiple files and then says you can create a new folder within the Web uploads folder to store them. Unfortunately it does not explain how to create the said folder - and as yet I have not been able to. Help please.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

This is an old thread, but still relevant to my current issue.
I've just joined BT and have activated the BT Cloud. I've tried to create a folder by clicking on the three little dots, but it's disabled. I uploaded a file and then it became enabled. Clicking on it though only allowed me to move it to trash. I moved it to trash and the 3 little dots became disabled again.
How do I enable this to create a folder? Surely it can't be that hard!!
Cheers,
Graham

LR 3.2 - Web upload issue/problem

Good news is that I am not getting error message like other posts in my search. Bad news - it is not doing it right. NOTE: this is my first attempt using web upload, so there is some user tial and error.
First attempt, didn't know if would create html page in process. Upload went fime, no errors, but when went to site, "page doesn't exist" error. Manually created a blank html page matching name used in LR, updated site, and reuploaded the web gallery from LR. Afterwards, went to site and same "page doesen't exist" error message.
Went to Dreamhost and logged into my account, and further loggd in to FTP (and a graphic webFTP version). Didn't see anything anything resembling an upload on the text FTP. On the webFTP version I saw a third directory was created - named my LR file name - and inside the directory folder it had all the all the photos and other files from the LR upload plus the html page I created. I'm wondering what I am doing wrong as LR is successfully logging on and uploading, but placing where not readable.
I have a similar question on the Dreamhost forum site, however, when a keyword search over there returned zero hits on "Lightroom" as a similar search over here returned zero hits on "Dreamhost." Figured it was best to ask in both places.

RESOLVED...
Now this is embarrasing as I found the solution through trial and error. I was doing everything right except for two words -"Case Sensitive." The uploaded file and directory the upload created was "Area43Contest" yet when typing out the file path to view after upload, I naturally type all lower case and received the page doesn't exist error.
On the FTP viewer issue at my host: the text version appears to update overnight as the directory was not there yesterday but was there this AM. The "webFTP" version appears to be realtime which is why I could see on one and not the other yesterday.
Understanding Lightroom web upload: Assuming that you keep the default "use subfolder" checked, it is self-contained in the directory that it creates so the typed path ends in the directory name rather than a file name. Thati s why it doesn't create a page outside the directory. It launches full screen as previewed in Lightroom absent the other parts of the web site, like headers - which is exactly what I wanted. Essentially a hidden page where I can deliver a product by giving a link.This was an HTML template where recipients can rt click and download the photos rather than the available flash templates which have the advantage of self running slideshow rather than download. While not necessary 99% of the time, may want to create a custom template with at least "Home" link as the only obvious way to return to the web site is back out the address to .com.
Hope others don't have to go through what I went through, but felt with the numbers that viewed this post in 24 hours and apparently stumped as no suggestions, that I had to let you know.

Just purchased & web upload is not working

I just purchased this and every time I try to upload a pdf using the web interface, it says there was an error uploading the file with no additional explanation.
What's going on? I'd like my money back if this program isn't working today.

Web upload error message: the resource does not exist

Hi - I am trying to build a few Flash-based web galleries from within LR using selections of images made as 'Quick collections'.
I have entered my FTP settings and saved as a selection - including testing that LR can get access to this by selecting the browse button next to the server path.
When I hit upload, I see the following progress detailed in the progress pane and then an error dialog:
- checking FTP connection settings
- exporting image bin
- building web photo gallery
'An error occured sending the file : the resource does not exist'
Any ideas?
Many thanks,
Simon

Using Web Upload for Flat File in BW-BPS 3.5 Stack 13

Hi,
I am attempting to implement the "How To Guide Load a Flat File into BW-BPS Using a Web Browser" (the 7/2005 version). However, certain BSP files named in the How to Guide, such as "JS.htm" and "checkbrowser.htm" do not exist in my generated BSP application. We are on BW-BPS version 3.5 Stack 13. Is this guide compatible with this BW version?
Thanks,
Cynara
(Note: I have already attempted to correct the incompatibilities by changing the statement <%@include file="js.htm" %> to <%@include file="JS3.htm" %> and eliminating the code <%@include file="checkbrowser.htm" %>. However, I still get the JS3.htm error "field R_PAGE is unknown".)

Hi Cynara,
I try to do the same.
I left out those both lines and also the line concerning the style.
<link type="text/css" href="<%= cstyle %>" rel="stylesheet">
The upload worked then so far except that no data was written into the cube. Even if I press save button nothing happens.
Any ideas?
Regards,
Juergen

Web upload and download

Can Apple add support for upload and download function on iOS Safari? I know Apple will have restriced access to its storage, but upload/download from or to DropBox maybe be the best solution. When click the upload link, it can chose file from DropBox and upload to web. or when clicked a download link, it would pop an option to download to DropBox, that whould be the best.

Can they? Probably. Will they? Who knows.
Your best bet is to send them feedback via their feedback link.
apple.com/feedback
Also there are some browsers that support uploads and download like that.
iCab Mobile is often suggested for that.

Web Upload into web page done with Apple iWeb

I use Apple's iWeb program to create a web site where I present my photos. I used Lightroom to create a web page which I would like to upload to the website created with iWeb. I would like to know if we can upload a web page created in Lightroom to a website created in Apple iWeb?
Help please. Thank you.

An FTP program will let you drag and drop the folder created in Lightroom Web module to your own website. There are many free FTP programs available if you don’t have one. The left hand panel mirrors the folders on your hard drive and the right hand panel mirrors your website when you are logged in (click image below for an example) and you simply drag and drop to your root directory folder. A progress bar at the bottom shows the file being uploaded to your website.
Supposing your site was Groove28.com and you created a Lightroom slideshow saved in a folder called wedding. You would upload the wedding folder using FTP and when complete the slideshow would automatically start when you link to it in a web browser.
The path would be something like:
http://Groove28.com/wedding/index.html
Or
www.Groove28.com/wedding/index.html
LINKS ARE EXAMPLES ONLY AND WILL NOT WIRK IF CLICKED

Work Flow - FCE to QT then compress and convert to AVI for web upload

I am creating movie clips that will be 5 to 10 min in length to be streamed on my website. At the current time, my CMS (content management system) for the web cannot accept H.264 (MP4) files, but can accept FLV, AVI and WMV. So, given this constraint, my workflow has been:
1) export from FCE to QT as self contained movie (Large HD files some up to 10GB)
2) compress down to a web usable size (maybe 180MB or so) at 640 X 480 using Elgato Turbo H.264 (however it only converts to .MP4 format)
3) use MPEG Streamslip to convert the compressed file from MP4 to AVI file
4) upload to web
My problem is that I seem to lose quality when converting from MP4 to AVI. Can anyone improve on this workflow or recommend products that might make this process and improve the quality of the final product?
I am still searching the forum, but only finding bits and pieces and not the full picture for my problem.
Thank you.

After doing this a few times, I remember why I was using Elgato...it is very fast and the quality is really good. MPEG Streamslip is almost as fast but slightly lacking in the quality. Still, it is really good. I just need to select the best output from Streamslip for the best quality.
