Hi,

I have installed newer version of Media. In the home page of the Media project it says that, media will support most of the media files along with image files. So, I wanted to add MOV type file to my web site. But I got the error message as below...

File type MOV is not valid in this context. Valid File Types Include: jpg,jpeg,jpe,gif,bmp,png,swf,AVI,MPEG,MP3,ASF,ASX,WMA,WMV,WAV

And also I tried to upload the .mpe format file. But I got the below error message:

The File .mpe Is A Restricted File Type. Valid File Types Include ( *. swf, *.jpg, *.jpeg, *.jpe, *.gif, *.bmp, *.png, *.doc, *.xls, *.ppt, *.pdf, *.txt, *.xml, *.xsl, *.css, *.zip ). Please Contact Your Hosting Provider If You Need To Upload A File Type Which Is Not Supported.

Can any body help me out in this?

Thanks in advance.

Hi larslem,

Thanks a lot... for your support. I have followed your instruction and it WORKED!

And also I could play the file which I had uploaded to my site! I have to check from some other machines to know it works!

Thanks once again.

I'm getting this error while trying to upload an mp3:

The File Is A Restricted File Type. Valid File Types Include ( *.swf, *.jpg, *.jpeg, *.jpe, *.gif, *.bmp, *.png, *.doc, *.xls, *.ppt, *.pdf, *.txt, *.xml, *.xsl, *.css, *.zip, *. wma, *. mp3, *. wmv, *. mov ). Please Contact Your Hosting Provider If You Need To Upload A File Type Which Is Not Supported

Yeah - you read that right - mp3 is a supported file type.  There are no size restrictions (set to 0), so what gives?  I'm totally stumped!  We're trying to set up a repository for audio files, some of which are pretty big.  I can't figure out why I can't make this work.  I tried adding other extensions like MP3 or Mp3, but no dice. 

Please help!
