Ok, I modified my buildout
(http://svn.plone.org/svn/collective/plonevideosuite/trunk/config/transcoding.cfg)
to use Vik's collective.flowplayer transcode-support branch, but now
when I upload a video file, I get this error:

-> transcodeProfiles = server.getAvailableProfiles()

I also noticed that the IP address was hardcoded in on lines 166 and
177 in events.py, so I had to change it to 127.0.0.1 since my
transcoder is running on localhost.

Vik - any idea why the global name 'server' is not defined?
