Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.Any chance the video module could incorporate some sort of upload progress bar? I don't want my visitors just staring at the screen hoping that the video is actually loading and not just frozen. Unless there is a module I can download that can do this? Something as simple as the upload bar these forums use would be great.

Jorrit commentedEach video upload field has the option to display a progress bar. You can find this option in the field settings screen.
Comment #2
utprep commentedI went into the field settings and could not find any option for a progress bar. Am I looking in the wrong place?
Comment #3
Jorrit commentedPlease take a look at the screenshot. Or is that progress bar not what you meant?
Comment #4
utprep commentedI've uploaded a screenshot of what I see and you will see that section does not exist for me. Is that for version 7? I am currently using 6.x-4.8.
Also you can see I am suddenly missing my dimensions, but my metadata section looks just fine (see attached screenshot). Could these be related?
Comment #5
Jorrit commentedMy screenshot is for Drupal 6. I think CKEditor has messed up the list, I will look into disabling CKEditor for that field. In the meantime, try to disable CKEditor for that field yourself.
Is that field an FTP upload field or a file upload field?
Comment #6
utprep commentedI went ahead and disabled the CKeditor for that section (see screenshot) and the lists are still not updated.
As far as the video field settings. I am using "File" for the type of widget, and then "Video" as the form element opposed to "Video FTP"
Comment #7
Jorrit commentedYou need to separate the entries with new lines. That part got broken because of CKEditor.
You can't see the progress option because you don't have APC or the uploadprogress PHP extension installed. Take a look at your status screen for more info, there must be a note about upload progress.

utprep commentedJorrit, you are awesome. I will do just that as soon as I get home from work. Thanks for your help!

Jorrit commentedI have added some code so the WYSIWYG editor is permanently disabled on all text areas where it is not useful.
