Hi,

I was wondering if you can provide a list of the current possible return values for the "Format" field of each image as returned by smugmug.images.get. I understand it could change as you support more formats, but I am curious what the current supported list looks like and a rough idea of what to expect.

Also, is there any case where the "Format" field for an image that is a JPEG is returned as something other than "JPG" or is it always going to be consistent. I don't know if that is based on filename extension when uploaded or a conversion from mime type, etc.

Thanks,

Matt

    Hey Matt,

    JPG, GIF, PNG, MPG, MP4.

    What determines whether an uploaded video becomes MPG instead of MP4?

    Completely unreasonable request:

    Your photo service allows me to easily grab the exact size of photo I want using URL parameters (AWESOME). Any ability to get MP4 video with a max width resolution of 480 pixels using a -480D parameter on the URL? :)

    video uploaded prior to us upgrading our video support will be in MPG format.

    re-automated video resizing...heh no rolleyes1.gif

    but we do have custom sizes, that would suit playback on an iphone/ipod...the 640 version should be fine.

    Haha, well, in fairness, I did preface it by saying it was a completely unreasonable request. I'll certainly make use of the existing sizes. :)

    Out of curiosity and to inform my users, was that around April 25, 2008, or prior to that?
