Good morning,
thank you very much for your help. Finally it worked...
But one thing is important: The filenames are case sensitive... So it is important to check this before importing. Otherwise "file is not accessible" - and you don't know why. The pros here might laugh about it but for me as producer who wants to understand what happens these informations are vital.
And I have found a good way if your material are only .mov videos: Convert them via Apple Compressor to mp4 (no resize!) and import them. But the lower formats can be done by the KVS ffmpeg. The converting is very fast depending on your mac 5-20 times faster that real time! And the importing/ converting is much faster. So this workflow works fine.
I have added all this videos as premium videos.
And now I have the problem that a manually added user I have given premium access can't access the videos? Why? What have I done wrong? Always the window with "only for premium users" appears but he is???
Can you help?
Next thing: How can I merge the categories in excel/ numbers? I have 5 categories but KVS wants it in one field separated by commas in the csv. Any suggestions? Or can I simply take 5 times the field "categories" instead of 1 time?
Last question: All posts must be approved by a moderator? To prevent scam/fraud/spam?
Thank you for your support. At the moment I would like to switch our pay site to KVS...

Due to the fact that my kas server needs more than 4x the time of the video duration for video conversion I will convert all videos to the needed mp4 files. My Macs do this very fast (0,2x time!) . But what are the correct "video" settings? Needed frame rate and whatever so the KVS server does not "want" to convert it?

5 hours ago, Tech Support said:
/home/..../path/to/file.mp4
Hi, thx for your answer.
But what is the correct path? I get always this error:
[Source video file (with processing)]: the specified file is not accessible My path (IMHO correct):
/home/admin/web/mykvsserver.com/public_html/contents/videos_sources/
plus file name.
And the 2nd error is:
[Type]: there is no any active video format associated with the selected video type
All my video files are .mov! Ok So I must add this video format:
6 MOV .mov Cond. required As source As source Any users No 0 But always same error.
Please help a newbie... Thx!

Hello friends,
I am new to KVS and want to upgrade my pay site to KVS.
First thing I got to do is importing about 600 video files with more than 1 TB.
So mass import is the best thing but It didn't work and I have read the "6 ways" again and again.
What I have done: I have created a test csv file for 10 videos with:
title;tags;category1;category2;category3;category4;category5;rawfile
So a video in the file has entries like this (just examples):
Couple has short sex;couple sex elder nude;Couple sex Outdoor;;;;;/web/myserverwithkvs.com/public_html/contents/videos_sources/video000001.mov
And here are the errors I get:
1 Error [Source video file (with processing)]: field is required and must have a value 1 Error [Type]: there is no any active video format associated with the selected video type Ok. I do understand I do not have the correct path but what it the correct on? Or how to tell KVS? I have uploaded all files via ftp to this path but could change that. Where do KVS expect the videos to be? And where to select the video format?
Maybe this is also interesting to other people who were not born as admins but producers. Thank you!
