Cloudfront configuration


Using Jamroom

Following up here to your email you sent me.

The way it works is that it replaces your S3 URL in the source with your CloudFront URL for non-signed URLs (i.e. media plays), and for media plays it uses the certificate info to create the proper signed URL.

So look at your HTML source and see if the CloudFront URL is being used. If it is, try clicking directly on the URL and see if you can view the item or you get an error.

Question Concerning Jamroom Videos


Design and Skin Customization

derrickhand300:
Thanks Brian..I am not sure what you mean "I cant do this.."
I have been working on it and have it set up now...here is the JR site run from my laptop as server
http://eaglesports.us
I just uploaded a 3GB video in about 5 minutes( as mpeg4)...its converting now...
So is embedding a video from this site on the other site the part "I cant do"?

Correct..

Quote:
I need the resources of the VPS for the main site...but I am trying this as a workaround to 8 hours per upload to youtube..

My last resort idea was to use the uploaded video url in an iframe and embed it on the main site...

Please explain the part that wont work so i understand better
Thanks!

I outlined it above - however if your laptop is online and internet accessible, you could try an iframe. You'll have to play around with it and try to get it to work.

Global config tabs not updating


Design and Skin Customization

This is automatic - I've not seen this NOT work, so something else must be going on. How are you determining that it is not being saved?

Thanks!

Question Concerning Jamroom Videos


Design and Skin Customization

derrickhand300:
I have a couple questions on something I am trying to configure.
Lets say for this issue i am using 2 jamroom websites
1- main site hosted on VPS
1- small site hosted on a server I set up here in my office using Ubuntu and a Lenovo Laptop w/4GB RAM

I make videos of my kids school sport activities and upload them to youtube then embed them in the above main site...this process for a single video is taking around 8 hours because the videos are a round 3 GB each

I want to upload these 3GB videos to the jamroom site I have hosted here on server in my office- then embed them on the main site

I notice I can upload a 3GB video using the jamroom interface in about 5 minutes :)

So my 2 questions are "what file type should i convert the video to that would save time in the conversion process? I am not sure this can be done because i am thinking jamroom converted it to several formats...but not sure so wanted to ask...

MP4 is good.

My other question is how to embed a video from my office server website into my main Jamroom website?

You can't do this - you would have to have your office website setup in DNS with a domain name, running a server 24/7 and a custom module - at that point you may as well run your JR site from your office computer.

Hope this helps!

Cloudfront configuration


Using Jamroom

Did you upload a file to your S3 bucket and make sure your distribution is working by accessing that file at your cloudfront URL?

CSS Being Stripped


Using Jamroom

I've just done a full investigation of this over the last day, and there's no work around for allowing some of this CSS that HTML Purifier considers potentially "malicious". Basically any CSS property (this case background gradients and borders) that can have an "opacity" value, can be used to "hide" the HTML element in some way (which is why it is considered malicious), or has the ability to break the HTML of the site (by rendering portions visible or not visible).

I've tried building custom rules for this, but have not been able to come up with something that works correctly.

So in this case what you need to do is:

- create a quota for your "trusted" users and put your own profile in that quota
- in the Core -> Quota Config check the "allow ALL HTML tags" option for the new quota

This will allow all the HTML with the style to be saved correctly.

We do still have the issue of visitors not seeing the same thing which is still being investigated, but at least this will get all your HTML into the blog.

My account again


Using Jamroom

blindmime:
Something seems to be going on with my account again. One of the sites I moved to jamroom hosting shows I need to purchase modules, after updating to most recent beta version core. The other site doesn't, nor do all of my other sites scattered elsewhere. I also can't seem to access Support Tickets or I would go there.

This seems to happen more often than I would like.

You should be good now - the reason this happened is that you cancelled your VIP Unlimited subscription AFTER moving to VIP Hosting - when that cancel came in, you were moved back to the member quota. I've put you in the right quota now and you should be good.

Hope this helps!

Unwanted HTML gap/space


Using Jamroom

Update to the latest Jamroom Core 5.3.0b8 and let me know if that helps at all - if not, there's something specific going on on your site that we'll need to check out.

Thanks!
