article-video does not show mp4 files in local source

NickMo1

Hi all,
I'm trying to create an article 'video'.
When I select source as 'Local' and click Select (Source) it opens the file browser but does NOT show any MP4 files (it does show jpg files).
This is what the article video sees (only jpg)

This is the browser showing all files

How can I get the article-video option to 'see' the mp4 files?

Thanks.

NickMo1 It may due to the editor you're using?

I tested with TinyMCE and it showed the mp4 file normally

Thanks.
You are correct it is the editor. I use JCE Pro. Is this a known 'problem' with JCE Pro?
Perhaps someone has overcome this issue (maybe a setting in JCE Pro needs changing)?
Thanks.

Could you share the JCE Pro installation package? I will test with it in my local and see how it goes.

NickMo1 I can't replicate the same issue, could you share the URL + super admin account of your site?

Thank you for looking into this.
I have created an article called "test video article" which if you open, and then go to 'Video' you will see that I have selected an image (which does not show) from the local source. If you press 'Select' it will take you to the folder with the videos, but only the image files are seen.
Hope this helps.

In the file: /templates/ja_blockk/contenttype/types/video.xml

I just added mp4 as legal extension for video:

<field
		name="ctm_local_src"
		type="modal_media"
		legalExtensions="m4v,ogv,mp4"
		label="PLG_JACONTENT_TYPE_SOURCE_LABEL"
		description="PLG_JACONTENT_TYPE_SELECT_OR_UPLOAD_A_VIDEO_DESC"/>

Line 33.

You can try again.

Thank you, but I went back to the "test video article" and tried to add a video file, but it still does not see the MP4 files, only the image files.
I also created a new video article to continue the testing, but still no inclusion of the video files in the selection.

NickMo1

More testing: It seems TinyMCE has the same issue.

I can see videos list now on your site, could you check again?

NickMo1

Thank you.
I see it is using the Joomla media manager for this, not the JCE Pro file browser.
I assume JCE Pro was the problem. May I ask what you did for this to work now.
Thanks.

There seems to be conflict with JCE vs this content type so I temporarily disabled this option in: Global configuration > JCE Editor Pro > JCE File Browser in Image Fields > No
