Hello,
I'm pretty new to piwigo, but I've made most of it work as needed so far. I ran into a problem with the videojs plugin though, and I'm not sure what to do about it.
I added a video to my gallry, using the syncro method. One of the videos was shot with an iPhone, and is displaying sideways. I have clicked the option to use ZoomRotate metadata, but it was still sideways, so I decided to see if I could add that information editing the video entry.
I selected the video in question, from the Photos menu in the administration panel. The Properties tab seems to work correctly, but doesn't give a rotation option, so I thought I'd click over to the VideoJS tab that appears to the right of the Property tab.
And then boom! I get the following (some directory names redacted with ...):
Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'String could not be parsed as XML' in /.../tanzania2014/piwigo/plugins/piwigo-videojs/include/mediainfo.php:32
Stack trace: #0 /.../tanzania2014/piwigo/plugins/piwigo-videojs/include/mediainfo.php(32): SimpleXMLElement->__construct('')

#4 {main} thrown in /.../tanzania2014/piwigo/plugins/piwigo-videojs/include/mediainfo.php on line 32
Not sure what caused this, or what to do to fix it, so I guess this is just a report.

Hello,
The photo-edit and the sync page are almost identical.
Do you the same issue when you do run a sync from the VideoJS plugin?
The error 'String could not be parsed as XML' mean that mediainfo did no create a proper XML.
Multiple choose:
1- You don't have mediainfo install
2- The video format is incorrect or invalid.
3- There is a bug VideoJS plugin
Would you be able to provide the video sample.
Regarding the ZoomRotate feature, using the photo-edit page you should see a parameter call "rotation: 1"
As a sample, https://github.com/xbgmsharp/piwigo-vid … photo-edit
However obviously according to you first error you can't validate.
If you run a manual sync, you should get the same error and also the rotation output.
No worries we will fix this issue.

It must have been related to the MediaInfo library. I've just installed that, and the crash is gone, so that's a plus.
If you're interested in figuring out why it crashes in the absence of that library, the file I was looking at can be found at http://kallend.net/tanzania2014/piwigo/ … G_0794.MP4
It's actually a .mov from an iphone, but the notes for this plugin said that renaming .mov to .mp4 would work (and it seems to).
