  Hey, I’m using this doc to help post videos to a WP page:

  Videos

  Great article, but something is wrong. Everything works up to the point where the video is uploaded and I’m looking in the “Media Library”. The pop-up window shows that it is a quicktime video, but the only fields I get are the basics (title, description, etc…).

  I get no “Display”, “Rating”, or “Preview”, and when I “Insert into Post”, it only creates a link to the file.

  Has anyone seen this before? Maybe the “Processing Phase” isn’t happening. If not, is there a way to force this after the fact?

  Thanks!!
