  Hey

  I have two different users on my blog (2.7.wp), one is an “administrator”, the other one is in a “editor” role.

  With the administrator role I’m able to upload a *.flv file to the media library through the normal post editor, but if I try to upload the flv file with the “editor” user, I get this error message:
  File type does not meet security guidelines. Try another.

  How can I allow the “editor” to upload a flv file, without upgrading him to an administrator.
  In the wp_usermeta table, there is a field called “wp_user_level”, where the admin has 10, and the editor has 7.
  What is 8 and 9 than?

  Thanks
