Has anybody found a way (or a need) to have the photos database display movie clips or audio files (multiple formats)? I would like to have guests download movie clips and listen to recordings for class rather than view photos.
Thanks for the link and the files. I'm having a really hard time importing your files into my website. Any simple instructions for me? If you have time, I'd really appreciate it. I'm very new to VWD and need pretty detailed instructions.
Sorry, I don't have the time to provide support. I would start with Microsoft's Personal Website Starter Kit and get familiar with that, then try my code.
Yes I have converted some of Matt's code to VB.net. Specifically the EXIF data section and the storing a thumbnail of the video in the photo album. In order to use Matt's code you first have add a reference to the Gieselman.Imaging.dll file that you will
find in Matt's code. I am using the file system to store photos instead of the database. If anyone want's me to send the code you can email me.

I've added support for uploading videos, you can download my code at:
You can also try it using:
then click on a thumbnail.
The code extracts the first frame of a video clip and uses it as the thumbnail. Also I use the file system for image and video storage.

I think what you have done with the videos is great and I would really like to use this in my site but I use VB. Has anyone made a VB version of this?
I am mainly looking at how you store the media on disk instead of the datebase and how videos are integrated so well into the album.

There is a small set of instructions in referencing Matt's dll file to get you started. Look for my post here http://forums.asp.net/2/1227742/ShowThread.aspx.
