pre-release7 days ago

IMPORTANT NOTES

  • Ensure you have storage.original_video_files set in your configuration file: https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/blob/develop/config/production.yaml.example#L159.
    If you did not configure this key but have already enabled "Keep a version of the input file" configuration, original files may have been saved in versions/peertube-v6.x.x/storage/original-video-files/ directories. If this is the case, you must move these files in the new directory location specified by your storage.original_video_files configuration
