Gallery Stats not working with custom login and videos

Hi,

I've integrates zenphotos into my website. Now my website original has its own login incredition so I added a "check user logged in" function to the top of all of my template pages and it works perfectly. However none of the Gallery stats seem to work like "Mosted Viewed" etc. How do I get these to work? Coudl it be because I'm using my own custom login function?

My second question is regarding videos formats etc. What is the best recommended format to use. My videos are quiet big so is there a way to "stream" the video instead of waiting for the full video to download?

    What gallery stats do you mean? There is a Zenphoto utility on the backend overview page. For showing something like the x most viewed images you need to add the appropiate functions of the image_album_statstics plugin

    Regarding videos:
    The most recommend file format would be .mp4 (note Zenphoto currently does not support the suffix .m4v!) or .flv if using the Flowplayer3 plugin. If you know all of your users use Macs you can use Quicktime (.mov) as well. Otherwise the two mentioned first.

    Streaming is possible with the Flowplayer3 plugin but has not been built (and is not planned) in as it requires a streaming server and costly plugins for Flowplayer. See www.flowplayer.org about that. However Flowplayer works like Youtube as it starts to display what has been already loaded.
