I hope I'm posting in the correct area

I'm running Drupal 6.x and I am in need of a Video Gallery MOD.

What I'm looking for is something similar to an image gallery look. Most my videos are from my Powershot A620 (Canon... 1 min .avi files), Others would be videos I made that are also .avi files but can be Gigs in size & whatever time length.

It would be nice if the video's played on my Drupal site (like youtube does).

Does such a MOD exist?

Thank you in advance!
Jess

CCK.module with the filefield.module to create a content type to allow video uploads. swftools.module to allow players for the videos.

another method (which is likely better suited) would be to use the video_upload.module which pushes the video directly to youtube for conversion into a playable format and is of great benefit to those on shared hosts with limited resources.

I don't have have limited resources, as long as I use the space properly (uploading videos to my site to show the world, ect. is ok). I will look into the other MOD as well

Thanks again :)

It's not just a matter of disk space. Even if you have a VPS ($200 a year) or dedicated ($200 a month) hosting account, I think you'll still only be able to provide video streaming for a small handful of simultaneous users. Using one of the large video providers to embed video into your site is a very sensible option.

You can use this module http://drupal.org/project/emfield for custom media or from other providers

I had better luck with filefield and swftools modules, not really good but works. The funny thing is it even survives in a shared host with mem_limit 32M. With this limited environment and progressive download, the playback is of course really poor though. But at least it survives there as a test :)
