I can not transfer a video file from the smartphone library to my server.

I'm using this code, but I can not pass the FILE_URI to transfer function.

code
var cameraSuccess = function(mediaFiles) {
var i, path, len;
for (i = 0, len = mediaFiles.length; i < len; i += 1) {
uploadFile(mediaFiles);

// do something interesting with the file
}
};
// capture error callback
var cameraError = function(error) {
navigator.notification.alert('Error code: ' + error.code, null, 'Capture Error');
};
// start video capture
navigator.camera.getPicture(cameraSuccess, cameraError, {
destinationType: Camera.DestinationType.FILE_URI,
sourceType: navigator.camera.PictureSourceType.PHOTOLIBRARY,
mediaType: navigator.camera.MediaType.VIDEO });

// Upload files to server
function uploadFile(mediaFile) {
var ft = new FileTransfer(),
path = mediaFile.fullPath,
name = mediaFile.name;
Appery("nomeVideo").text(name);

Code: Select all

  ft&#46;onprogress = function(result){ 
  var percent =  result&#46;loaded / result&#46;total * 100; 
  percent = Math&#46;round(percent); 
  Appery('progressbar')&#46;text('Upload:  ' + percent + '%');     
  }; 

     ft&#46;upload(path, 
               "http:&#47;&#47;www&#46;xxx&#46;com/uploadVideo/index&#46;php", 
               function(result) { 
               alert('Upload success: ' + result&#46;responseCode); 
               console&#46;log(result&#46;bytesSent + ' bytes sent'); 
               }, 
               function(error) { 
               alert('Error uploading file ' + path + ': ' + error&#46;code); 
               }, 
               { fileName: name }); 

 }

/code

Can you help me?

Hello Diego,

You can use the camera (http://devcenter.appery.io/tutorials/...) with parameter
presourceType = PHOTOLIBRARY/pre
Please find more info here: http://docs.phonegap.com/en/3.3.0/cor...

Hello!

Are there any errors in console? What device you use to test?

Hi Maryna

the only error is this:

code
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'getPicture' of undefined
$.off.on.click
jQuery.event.dispatch jquery-1.9.1.js:3074
elemData.handle
/code

i tested it a on Android Galaxy S4. The fileTranfert code work when i capture the video and upload it on the server.

but does not work when I choose a video file from library. I think the problem is in the file_uri passage. I've tried other code and i follow the phonegap official tutorial, without success.

Hello!

1) So in your code you change sourceType and it works? Or you also changed something else?

preUncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'getPicture' of undefined/preThis error means you call the code before Device ready event

2) Try this code, but run it after device ready event

prevar cameraSuccess = function(mediaFiles) {
alert(JSON.stringify(mediaFiles));
};
// capture error callback
var cameraError = function(error) {
navigator.notification.alert('Error code: ' + error.code, null, 'Capture Error');
};
// start video capture
navigator.camera.getPicture(cameraSuccess, cameraError, {
destinationType: Camera.DestinationType.FILE_URI,
sourceType: navigator.camera.PictureSourceType.PHOTOLIBRARY,
mediaType: navigator.camera.MediaType.VIDEO
});/pre

Hi

I changed the code, but the file transfer does not work. I can select the file from the library, but this is not sent to my server.

code
var cameraSuccess = function(mediaFiles) {
alert(JSON.stringify(mediaFiles));
};
// capture error callback
var cameraError = function(error) {
navigator.notification.alert('Error code: ' + error.code, null, 'Capture Error');
};
// start video capture
navigator.camera.getPicture(cameraSuccess, cameraError, {
destinationType: Camera.DestinationType.FILE_URI,
sourceType: navigator.camera.PictureSourceType.PHOTOLIBRARY,
mediaType: navigator.camera.MediaType.VIDEO
});

// Upload files to server
function uploadFile(mediaFiles) {
var ft = new FileTransfer(),
path = mediaFiles.fullPath,
name = mediaFiles.name;
Appery("nomeVideo").text(name);

Code: Select all

  ft&#46;onprogress = function(result){ 
  var percent =  result&#46;loaded / result&#46;total * 100; 
  percent = Math&#46;round(percent); 
  Appery('progressbar')&#46;text('Upload:  ' + percent + '%');     
  }; 

     ft&#46;upload(path, 
               "http:&#47;&#47;www&#46;xxx&#46;com/uploadVideo/index&#46;php", 
               function(result) { 
               alert('Upload success: ' + result&#46;responseCode); 
               console&#46;log(result&#46;bytesSent + ' bytes sent'); 
               }, 
               function(error) { 
               alert('Error uploading file ' + path + ': ' + error&#46;code); 
               }, 
               { fileName: name }); 

 }

/code

Could you please clarify, are there any errors in the console when you send a file? Could you please look through Weinre: http://devcenter.appery.io/documentat...
