Description
Hello,
I'm trying to use the Filefield option for FlashVideo and possibly encountered what appears to be a bug. So far, I've created a filefield called "Videofield". I then went into FlashVideo's Universal Settings and activated the filefields there. Under the node type I then tell it to use Videofield to get video from.
Now when I go to add a node, Videofield has disappeared as an option from the node. If I turn off Filefields in Flashvideo's Universal Settings it reappears when I try to add the node. I've also tried this with other filefields, such as when I try to add the thumbnail to an Imagefield, then Imagefield disappears when I try to add a node.
Any ideas?

I still can't get this to work. My created "video" field disappears once I enable that filefield in FlashVideo.
All of my modules are upgraded to the latest versions.
Permission settings are correct.
I've double-checked my CCK display settings
I disabled some modules/cck that I thought could be causing compatibility problems, such as a generic attachment filefield and the upload module, and still haven't been able to get it to work.
Anyone else experiencing this?

I think I understand this now. My issue has been failure to understand the module. :) I didn't know a second filefield was needed for the converting, and that that filefield (where the finished video goes) doesn't show up on the node creation form.
I created a second filefield called "Video List", and that is now the filefield the converted video is to attach to, and now the "Video" filefield shows as normal. However when I save it I get an error and the video stays on the "Video" field rather then going to the "Video List" field.
So is my understanding correct? I upload on one field, it gets converted, and then is attached to a second field? Is there anything I need to do to make this conversion work?
