Issue 1441: Bad video upload (unpublished)

Description

When checking videos for this dance I see there is an unpublished video uploaded by Tom Geoghegan three years ago (http://my.strathspey.org/dd/dancevideo/2042/). This does not appear to work properly. Im not sure if this is a problem with the video upload or with the SCDDB display side.

It looks like he subsequently uploaded it to youtube and linked it successfully, whereas the first one was attempted to be uploaded to SCDDB.

Probably this failed and never published video entry should be deleted. However I suspect deleting the dancevideo entry might leave an orphan mp4 file in the upload area (dd/dance/video/upload/Snake_Pass.mp4). I do not know how to delete that so am reluctant to do anything without asking here first.

No problem, I can clean that up (and have).

There are probably various things wrong with the SCDDB-native video upload feature. I’ll have to look into that in detail one of these days.
