Can't see content "imported from existing host"
Thu, 05/06/2010 - 15:15
I'm trying to import a clip from the web into a playlist.
I created a .csv file on my computer and then submitted it.
The table showed "importing" in the status field and then it went blank. Later it showed as "finished". There was no error indicated. The number of entries showed as 1.
When I go to "Entries" to check my content, the content from this import is not showing.
I downloaded the logfile.csv and it shows:
Oneness Global Identity http://www.~ /videos/samiawadclip3 Video 0_uamq08lq -1
How do I get this content into my entries list?
Was there a problem with the import and that's why it's not showing?
Thanks.

Thanks for your help.
I've attached the .csv file and .csv logfile. (the error in the logfile is from a mistake I made importing the first time)
I tried the url and the video plays correctly in a browser.
In Profile Settings, I kept the original aspect ratio and did NOT optimize the video size based on width. Could this be a problem?

I believe your csv is improperly formatted. So the parser is getting confused.
You'll need to put quotes around the individual fields and put commas between them to make sure the parser can understand what you're telling the system to do:
"Title","description goes here","Oneness, Global Identity, Another Tag","http://www.globalonenessproject.org/videos/samiawadclip3","Video"
I've attached a new version of your csv here for an example. Let me know how it goes :)

Thanks for the reply.
I tried creating a new .csv file with your suggestions, and still no success.
Here is the file I used:
"Difference Between Economic Health and Size", "Brian Czech", "economy gdp gpi", "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4zo9j1Fe0vM&feature=related", "video"
Could downloading from YouTube be an issue?

This is be a similar issue where you need the url of the actual video file.

I tried file you revised from the site
http://www.globalonenessproject.org/videos/samiawadclip3
I still can't see the file in my entries list.
There are no errors reported in the KMC "Import from Existing Host" table.

deejay,
sorry, I missed this: You need the actual url of the video file, not just the page where the video is embedded
"http://media.globalonenessproject.org/videos/download/SamiAwad_clip3_HD.m4v"
If you'd attach a copy of that csv I'll give it a try and see what's going on.
