Issue Summary
it does not work and worse then that - i don't even see the movies..
any ideas?
Comments
#1
ok, forgot to update.php, yet - when I upload a thumbnail image, it doesn't show up.
#2
The thumbnail doesn't show up indeed. After selecting an image and uploading it, it looks like there is no thumbnail stored.
There's also no thumbnail preview on the edit node page.
#3
There is a thumbnail preview on the edit node page, but when i try to upload a new image and save the node, it doesn't really save my new image..
any ideas?
#4
Pardon for reminded about this problem.
I just think this bug is easily fix yet REALLY importent for users out-there.
If anyone has a idea/patch/anything, i guess all of us that use this module would be happy to hear about that.
#5
I think we have the same problem - our custom thumbnails aren't overwriting the default. It looks like they are (I can upload them and see them), but as soon as we submit/save the content form it reverts to the default YouTube thumbnail.
I didn't create a new issue because it seems this is the same issue...?
I've chcked all permissions etc. Any help kindly appreciated.
#6
This has been an ongoing issue that's been documented in several threads. Hopefully someone will be able to fix this soon. This is a really great module. I for one am really grateful for it, the new multi-thumbnail size option is an awesome feature, but now we just need to get that thumbnail to be what we want.
#7
odd. it works fine for me at http://drupalmultimedia.org/
edit. it works fine if i submit w/o pressing the upload button. it doesn't work if i hit upload before submitting. sorry; i can't fix that right now, but now that i know the problem better, i'll try to get that next week. (note the latest release i'm about to do: DRUPAL-6--1-13 won't have the fix, but i'll make sure to grab that during my next go-around, probably by next week...)
also, could someone find the other duplicates and bump them (or mark them duplicate) to help clean the queue a bit?
thanks!

Hi,
Maybe this is the same problem.
I can use upload custom thumbnail, in add/edit node state.
I can see the preview of the image, in add/edit node state.
The thumbnail is stored at the configured "Image path".
The problem is that I get this error message every time I go to edit my node:
* The selected file C:\wamp\tmp\fil17D9.tmp could not be uploaded, because the destination is not properly configured.* Thumbnail error. Could not copy provider thumbnail.
And a new file is stored in C:\wamp\tmp\ every time I go to edit my node as well.
And the biggest problem is that the custom image doesn't override distributors as desired.
Is this just a configuration error or is this a module error?
Grateful for any assist.

Hitting save directly does work - but only temporarily. After the next CRON job, the thumbnail is gone again...

I'm marking this as a duplicate of:
#638758: Fixes and improvements to emthumb
I'm going to try and figure out what's going on this weekend, but I'll be doing it in that issue.
#12
I'm getting this exact error. I have researched and found nothing to help me sove it
#13
same problem
#14
do you get the issue with 6.x-2.x-dev? maybe there's a patch there that needs to be backported to 1.x?
#15
I get this issue both in 6.x-2.5 and in 6.x-2.x-dev, though it is not exactly as described above. It only seems to occur on node creation. I can upload and see the preview, click save, then nothing. The same happens when I just save without hitting upload. However, if I go back and edit the saved nodes, and upload the thumbnail again it works.
So doesn't work on initial creation, but does work on update.
#16
help
i have the same issue as rho_
#17
I know this is going to be a crappy way to explain this, but I fixed it by turning off modules that I didn't need. Eventually this error went away, though I don't know which module caused it. I have a test site and a live production site, and my test site was the one throwing errors. I have a lot of pointless modules on my test site for that reason. When I mimicked my live environment, (ie: turning off modules) it just worked.
#18
Reporting a similar problem, with 6.x-2.5 and 6.x-2.x-dev . I'm not replacing the thumbnail, just trying to use an imagecache preset for it... and all I'm getting is the thumbnail size specified in emfield. No matter what I put in the View. :|
The output HTML is interesting:
<div class="views-field-field-video-link-embed"><span class="field-content">
<div class="emvideo-modal emvideo-lightbox2">
<a href="/friends/emvideo/modal/118/425/350/field_video_link/youtube/7VgjcKxFAlE" title="Nillson" class="emvideo-thumbnail-replacement emvideo-modal-lightbox2 lightbox2 lightbox-processed emvideo-thumbnail-replacement-processed" rel="lightframe[video|width:441; height:366;]">
<img src="http://img.youtube.com/vi/7VgjcKxFAlE/0.jpg" alt="See video" title="See video" width="120" height="90">
</a>
</div>
</span>
</div>
It's interesting that I can see the class "emvideo-thumbnail-replacement" on the A tag, but the img src is clearly getting the image from youtube instead of imagecache.
