I'm trying to implement VideoReel, but I've run into some trouble.
I installed the Module, set the Flashvideo Settings, put the Player.swf in the files directory, and uploaded a .flv to a page.
I get "Thumbnail not available" even after running cron.
I'm not using FFMPEG, since we already have a library of .flvs I'm trying to display.
I'd like to serve the videos from another server than my drupal site is running on, since that host has more storage/bandwidth.
URL for my test case is http://www.worldcycling.tv/?q=node/249.
Look familiar? Any ideas would be appreciated.
Anyone have any experience with this sort of setup they'd like to contribute?

Clean URLs enabled
Hi Travis,
Clean URLs are now enabled, but with no change.

Which version of FlashVideo
Which version of FlashVideo are you using? I would recommend that you download the version 2.2 Beta3. The only thing that I can see right off the top of my head is that you have clean url's disabled. Although the module should work just fine without clean url's enabled, I have had some people have trouble in the past due to this. Is there a reason that you are not using the Clean URL's? When I get a chance this week, I might have some time to debug this for you. Thanks, Travis.
php settings
Travis,
I didn't bother changing the php configuration, since I'm not actually asking the server to process much.
Do you think this might be the problem? I think I'll ask my admin to increase the max_execution_time.

2.2b3
Hi Travis,
Thanks for posting so quickly.
I'm using FlashVideo 2.2b3.
I'm not using clean URLs because my Drupal failed the Clean URLs Test.
My sysadmin said he'd change the configuration, but I think he figured it was a pretty low priority. I'll ask him to make the necessary changes.
I think I'll go run through your tutorial again to make sure I haven't done anything obviously wrong.
