First of all Thanks you for this great job !!
.. then .. I can't make it work ;-(
- I installed it on my own server with php5 and curl enabled.
- I created a new content type with 2 the two cck fields as mentionned in http://drupal.org/node/193121
- I configured the 3 actions "Media action type"

Now: when a create a new content, the video is correctly uploaded to /files but nothing more . View just show me the local_video cck.
No error message. I tried to put some debug message in the media_actions.inc/action_bliptv_store, but it seems not even called.

Do I miss something ?
It is the first time that I use the Actions module, is the cck_field reference to the "Video file cck" enought to launch the action ?

Thanks,
Marc

Hi,
You need something to launch the actions. I should mention this in the README... For this purpose, you can use the Workflow module, to semi-automatically launch an action, or (and I think that's what you are looking for) the NodeTriggers module, which enables you to associates actions with node events (like node creation, node update, node deletion).

Thanks for the questions, it will help improve my documentation.

thanks for the trick & the new module that is also really usefull .

It works now. The video is correctly uploaded.

I still don't have the emfield flash displayed, but this has nothing to do with your module ... probably some configuration stuff, I'll look after it tomorrow.

Thanks again for your work.

Regarding the flash player, I suggest you patch CCK emfield (see the issues for this module).
