Bug #71528

Add missing file types to CE "Text & Media" (e.g. mp4 and ogv)
0%
Description
The new "Text & Media" content element allows uploading a number of file types, among them for example "mov".
It however is missing "mp4" files (which I think is a real blocker) and Benni also wants to have the free "ogv" added.
Add them, please.

Are you on latest version? mp4 is already present and mov is removed as that isn't supported by the <video> tag.

I am running the release version, TYPO3 7.6.
What I see there is a list of file types, among them mov, but not mp4. Also, when I hit the "select file" button, mp4 files, which are on the server, are not shown in that list.

Could you check you LocalConfiguration.php if the ['SYS']['mediafile_ext'] value is set there? As a default installation should give you these options currently: gif,jpg,jpeg,bmp,png,pdf,svg,ai,mp3,wav,mp4,webm,youtube,vimeo

I have now tried to track this problem down:
In a new, "normal" website, the file extensions in fact are as expected. They do include mp4.
I have this issue with a demo site, which is based on the Introduction Package and on the Bootstrap Package. I could not yet find, where the value of ['SYS']['mediafile_ext'] gets changed.

Hi Christopher, a new 7.6 installation sets the default as Frans pointed out. I checked a demo installation of my own and the value does not get changed in introduction package or bootstrap_package. We changed this format in a late point of the 7 series. My feeling is you upgraded this installation to latest version and is missing the new default value.
I close this ticket now because the core contains the right value. If someone overwrites it that is not a problem of the core.

I agree. Yes, this installation has been upgraded to 7.6 and the problem is not the Core.
Thanks for digging into this one, Wouter!
