Passing additional Zencoder Options fails

[omarvelous]

Thought this would be fine:

has_video_encodings :videos,
  :formats => [:ogg, :mp4, :webm, :flv],
  :s3_config => "#{Rails.root}/config/amazon_s3.yml",
  :path => 'trailer/:trailer_id/videos',
  :thumbnails => {
     :base_url => 'trailer/:trailer_id/thumbnails', #You Can Not Pass
     :filename => "thumb_{{number}}", #You Can Not Pass
     :number => 10
  }

But apparently it doesn't like the additions (base_url and filename) I made in the thumbnails hash. However these are valid options in the Zencoder API Doc. I can' see in your code why these additional options wouldn't work.

While create_job is ran, a encoder job is never created, therefore halting the whole process.

correct, those options should be passed through, but your :trailer_id and {{number}} tokens are not going to be interpolated, that only works for the :path option.

Did you get any error about the job in the Zencoder control panel? also would look at the raw API interaction if you can, you can get this by debugging the zencoder gem.

That's the odd thing, it never got to the Zencoder control panel. The {{number}} however should be allowed, api feature: https://app.zencoder.com/docs/api/encoding/thumbnails/thumbnails-filename. I was expecting the :trailer_id to perhaps not be interpolated, but figured it might just save the thumbnail to a folder called ":thumbnail_id", was thrown off when it didn't work at all though.

Otherwise, awesome gem!
