Hi @Pg_jack_lp

Can you show me what you are seeing when you download the video? When using your workflow, I’m able to see the video that was uploaded when downloading.

what tool are you using to view the downloaded video?

i dont use any tool i use the build in view feature i just "see the sound " but the video is not displayed

I sadly cannot post a picture of what i see because iam new and it is getting reviewd but i didnt use tool and i just wanted to view it inside of n8n but everytime i click on view the video plays but then i only “see” sound

@Pg_jack_lp

There is a download button that you can use to test. I’m sure the video is coming through for you, but check the download to make sure.

n8n stores the video as binary, and you can use it in later steps.

Can you upload the video here? I can test if it works on my system.

Yes of Course here you have it
Link: File-Upload.net - 20230804_150057.mp4

like i said when i download the video from google drive or anywhere else it is just the sound that is playing

Hey
@Pg_jack_lp

I just tested with the mp4 and using google drive node, and is working all okay.

Can you restart the instance? and try load it again, how did you install using dockers?

Samuel

I can also see the binary data but when i click on view it is jusz playing sound not the actual video like i showed you in another screenshot from me when i click on view its just sound and no video

@Pg_jack_lp and your using dockers?

Happy to jump on a call try figure this out with you if you’d like, maybe we can try deploy a new container too, see if you face the same problem.

Best regards,

Samuel
