$config['upload_path'] = './videos/';
                        $config['allowed_types'] = 'flv';

You need to add the flv mimetype to the mimes.php config file.

For example:

Code:

$mimes = array(
'hqx'=>'application/mac-binhex40',
'cpt'=>'application/mac-compactpro',
...
'flv'=>'video/x-flv'
);

Hope that helps you.

Did you upload the modified mimes.php file? Does it give a different error than before?

[eluser]Justin Patel[/eluser]
just the file you are trying to upload is not allowed

[eluser]dawnerd[/eluser]
I would double check to make sure the mimes.php file is correct.

I add the same trouble.

corrected it by adding this line (in mimes.php) : 'flv' => 'application/octet-stream'

and it worked fine.
