@onlybro add ",video/mpeg,video/3gpp,video/quicktime" to MEDIA_TYPES in .env.production

[onlybro]

@murgero hello again thank you for your reply!

I did open env.production but there’s no predefined MEDIA_TYPES=.....

Do I need to add this line (MEDIA TYPES) by myself ??

@onlybro yeah, you need to add that to the config. here's a screenshot for reference - Screenshot_20210410_225929.jpeg

but as i mentioned on the other thread, this doesn't seem to work for me now, in order to create video posts.

Please have a look at this at last it is said to edit pixelfed/config.php

@onlybro Yeah that's not talking about a config.php, it's telling you to modify the code in pixelfed.php which in this cloudron app you cannot.
