Large Video Conversion - Time Out

Using Jamroom

I downloaded a small video off of youtube and uploaded for conversion. It was a 3 minute MP4 at 15.4MB. It took about 5 minutes to convert.

The host thinks the scripts converter must be misconfigured or something, because according to him, his native converter flies though small files like that in probably under a minute.

Question: Is that a reasonable time for this script, given the size and format of the file (details attached).

Thanks Brian, that's really helpful.

The host says he can process folders full of videos with the native conversion package really quickly, so I'm still puzzling on this one.

I'm testing with some small ones downloaded from youtube, I'll let you know how I make out.

Profile Domain Module - Procedure not Recommended?

Using Jamroom

It's working now - hoorah.

http://kenrich.me is now mapped to my profile pages and I have a working example for my clients.

1) Now that the module no longer deletes the file needed for the apache include, and the include is also made optional, I see ZERO chance of this crashing the server again.

2) My DNS issues were being caused by changing the nameservers to my host (as per normal procedure). When I switched to Go Daddy's default nameservers, and then manually changed the @ host to my site's dedicated IP, my domain pinged there almost immediately.

All's well that ends well - thanks for your patience and time on this...

Yes but if you recall it was deleting it, I actually reported that back on the 26th. I guess it never dawned on me (or any of us) that it would cause this issue.


Hindsight's 20/20. The important thing is that it's sorted now. I think there should be no problem with the install now, and it's going to be a great addition to the premium services my network offers.

Hi Brian,

That would be extremely helpful - thanks. You can download the video here:

I'll try converting some smaller ones tomorrow.

Profile Domain Module - Procedure not Recommended?

Using Jamroom

Once you include the file in your apache config, apparently it needs it to boot. It ends up repeatedly trying to load a non existing file, if the Jamroom module deletes it (which it does on deactivate).

Got to run - I'll look into the DNS thing with you - I've never done it that way.

My mistake in wording it in a way that would make you assume that. He is wondering if the script uses memory coaching - "memcached" or "memcache" but not in relation to conversion.

The CPU is the same one used in your speed test baseline, so should do a reasonable job.

I didn't think of file corruption but perhaps that's it. I'll experiment and try to find out.

Apache doesn't delete it, the Jamroom module does.

Profile domain module deletes a necessary file when a domain is deactivated. Problem explained here:

Data Center said:


Well no one deleted it, the module itself deletes it when you deactivate the domain mapping. I was watching the folder myself and saw it disappear after we deactivated. It writes it back when activated - witnessed that too, but had to deactivate again when the second test failed.

I had no choice but to to deactivate, since no one could reach my profile or files. So what is the way forward now?
