Hi guys, first of all let me say how great the Hey!Watch system is! I’ve been using it a while now and am amazed at the quality and speed at which videos are created.

I’m using the jQuery plugin Uploadify – I’ve had it set up and running on a couple of sites for a while now and has been working fine.

But recently I’ve had a few failures and I’ve been trying to work out what’s happening.

The plugin is set to upload to http://heywatch.com/upload.xml . All fields including Heywatch key are set correctly – as I say it’s been working a couple of weeks now.

The way I have set it to work is as follows:

- The file uploads and the progress bar does its thing
- when it gets to 100%, I get the returned XML from Heywatch
- using jQuery, I strip out the Heywatch ID along with the width and height.
- I then call an ajax script to insert this data into my database.
- the form page receives a response back from my ajax script and redirects the browser to a response page

The past couple of days I’ve been getting a few failure emails from my database script because my script is not getting the Heywatch ID and width and height I’m sending it.

When I test my form, the file uploads correctly but the jquery doesn’t receive the data back from heywatch – so it just hangs on the upload form page.

My script is a bit slack and doesn’t check for errors from heywatch, but the videos are uploaded, encoded and ftp-d to my server.

I’m a bit stuck now as I can’t tell whether the problems my end or Heywatch end – eg if the xml format has changed or anything..

Any ideas/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
