MP4 / Available / Creating
I have posted on a previous thread in regards to this item, but have not heard anything, so maybe internally that thread was closed?
In any case. Is their a chance --- that a new field "mp4stream" and "iphonestream" be made available in the iteminfo? I understand in the case of an MP4 stream being available it is just a change in the URL, but it is never known if one actually exists, or if a user has converted the current video to an iPhone MP4? Some deliniation and availability would be great.
Taking this a step further, the ability to CREATE the iPhone version. Currently the API does not provide for this, though adding it in I dont think is troublesome from "looking" at things currently.
Thanks

Hi Shawn.
Thanks for the suggestion. Believe me it's on our list.
But our list is very very long, and we're currently outnumbered.
I will let you know if this is resolved.
Thank you.

Just chipping in. Im working on an iPhone app with the potential to play the MP4s and this feature would be awesome.
I suspect the app will get rejected from the app store, but if so find a way to make the app available somewhere else...
I'll open source the library somewhere also once im happy with it.

Hi Lanoshorty, that's so awesome. Thank you.
Hope to provide mp4 info and creation through the api soon.

Hello Everyone,
We consider to rewrite our API from ground up supporting oAuth2 for authentication. Until then we're only focused on its bugs and problems. The new API will have all put.io functionality. If you have any further suggestions that you'd like to see in our API, feel free to contact with us.

hasan
is their a better email to use for support?
the mp4 status and such api has changed, and today i fixed our end to
work with the new result responses..
but in doing so i am getting false information:
for example when calling:
http://put.io/index.php/has-mp4/20931723
I get a TRUE response, which i assume is telling me an MP4 is available
to stream for this file
this file belongs to user tester of ours: crassh76
when we go to play, of course it fails. when we log into put io, says
we can create an mp4, one is not yet created. though the response i am
seeing, says one is???/

Hi,
We changed the behavior of has-mp4 a bit. The responses are the same, I'll just write the possible cases.
{"mp4_status":"true"}-> If the user already has the mp4 file for the given user file id OR the mp4 file is available in the system for the given user file id but hasn't been converted by the user. In that case, mp4 file is automatically bounded to the user and can be watched instantly.{"mp4_status":"processing"}-> File is being converted to mp4. The mp4 file is bounded to the user and can be watched after the the conversion is complete. Of course, if the given file id belongs to the user.{"mp4_status":"inqueue"}-> File is in the mp4 conversion queue waiting to be converted. Again the file is bounded to the user, if the given file id belongs to the user.{"mp4_status":"false"}-> There is no mp4 file or job for the given file id.{"mp4_status":"error","error":"..."}-> Shown when there is an error, with an error description.If there is anything else you need, I can tweak it a bit more.

Great,
One question, in the previous version, i was able to tell if the file
was already available in the system or not, meaning an immediate
availability... was a nice thing to know, letting user know it would be
practically instant availalable, vs time to transcode. is it possible
to add a mp4_status: available or something like that, which would mean,
this user does not have the mp4 attached, but it is available (not
needing to be transcoded), its not a high priority, but was a nice
feature...
