Installed the module and used all default settings.

Uploaded a SWF file and got this error displaying eventhough the video uploaded successfully and works fine

when the content is viewed, this error message appears above the video. The videos displays with no problem.

UPDATE:
I added swf to the list of allowed files for upload and it got rid of the error message. Works well.

I think the bug here is why it permitted upload of swf even if I didnt have it in the list of allowed files. The upload still went though, eventhough it shouldnt have and caused the Division By Zero error.

I get the same error too in video module when trying to view the node after a successful upload.

Re-opening - information is already on description - re-stating below. Version is 6.x-3.4

SCENARIO (EASY TO REPRODUCE)
1. Installed the module and used all default settings.

2. Uploaded a SWF file and got this error displaying eventhough the video uploaded successfully and works fine

3. when the content is viewed, this error message: "Division by zero in test/sites/all/modules/video/includes/common.inc on line 17" appears above the video. The videos displays with no problem

TEMPORARY WORKAROUND:
I added swf to the list of allowed files for upload and it got rid of the error message.

I think the bug here is why it permitted upload of swf even if I didnt have it in the list of allowed files. The upload still went though, eventhough it shouldnt have and caused the Division By Zero error.

When creating the filefield, you may get this message:
=== Only web-standard videos are supported through the video widget. If needing to upload other types of files, change the widget to use a standard file upload ===

It means that you have specified an upload file extension that is not acceptable. If you do this, you will get the said error message even if you are trying to upload/play a commonly acceptable file such as swf, wmv, flv etc

I had this problem, but I was displaying my videos through views fields. I found that going to the relevant view and editing the settings for my 'content: video' field got rid of the error message.

If you go down to the very bottom of the settings for the field that's causing the problems, you'll see a 'Format' dropdown. I found mine was set to 'video' and changing it to 'videofield embedded' solved the problem.

I guess that's technically a "workaround" as it probably solved the problem by avoiding the troublesome common.inc file altogether.

Hope this helps.
