Greenlight upload to Youtube (provided they have a video component)

[Kirk Pathumanun]

Hello,

Finally got Greenlight installed and yes simplicity is awesome with pretty much straight forward instructions with docker image. However when I tried to upload video to youtube from the playback recording, it stated no video. Also what is the video component on the Greenlight instruction page exactly ? Please help.

Thank You.

Hi Kirk,

Nice!

A BigBlueButton recording is a synchronized playback of images and SVG (for slides), HTML (for chat),  and a video or audio file (for webcams, screen sharing, and audio).  The publish to YouTube option will publish the video component to the user's YouTube account.

If during the original meeting the presenter didn't share their screen and no one shared their webcam, then there won't be any corresponding video file in the recording.   Without a video file, there isn't anything for GreenLight to upload to YouTube.

We do have an open enhancement request to create a single video file of the entire session (except the chat)..

which is on our road map for a future release.

Great news on the future open enhancement. However if you mentioned about the webcam sharing or screen share on from the users in order for the script to pick up video component for youtube upload. I did share my webcam for a good minute. http://edknovate.com/playback/presentation/0.9.0/playback.html?meetingId=89821c2358ea2df70be54c72935a77f11298b3f7-1499535345824 But the Greenlight still told me "Recording did not contain any video". May be is there something I miss on the config ? But so far everything works a great from authentication all the way to recording management (Just the Youtube upload still got the issue).

Regards,

Hello,

I actually has over 40 minutes business conference over BBB with greenlight frontend. However still no luck on youtube upload despite me and the other party shared our webcams. Please advise on the possible cause of this issue. Thank you kindly.

Hey Kirk!

How is your account authenticated? Did you use your Twitter account or your Google account?

Hello Josh,

Yes sir I got both Google account and twitter authentication working per the installation instruction on the bigbluebutton site. However the Google authentication was a bit tricky where the URL had to be exact where you started with, for example https:// will work but not http://

So just to confirm, you are experiencing the "no video data" message on a recording that has a webcam component while you are logged in using Google.

There is a small bug right now that causes recordings with video to show that message if you are authenticated with Twitter. I hope to have a fix for this soon.

If you are seeing this message on a recording with video when you are authenticated with Google, that is odd.

I'll have to do some tests today to see if I can replicate the issue.

Ohh got it ! Yes I did use that account with Twitter authentication for testing purposes. Anyway I will try to have another conference with Google account authentication and let see how it will go. By the way much kudos on this front end project, it's really robust and intuitively simple to use. I actually use this system to talk to my dev people in Texas and Bangkok ! Keep up the awesome work !
