Open Media Show

civicpixel - April 29, 2009 - 22:02

The Show module contains the metadata and videos ecoded with different formats using Media Mover for the Open Media System. Shows take their default metadata from Project when installed, but Show can be used independently as well.

To use this module as it is documented and demonstrated, you'll need to apply this patch to your core Drupal install and install the filefield_local module which is not distributed through Drupal's CVS. In general it is not wise to patch/hack core, but this is required to deal with large files in diverse server/RAID environments. After discussion this issue with drewish, aaron, greggles at the Open Media Camp in April, we're confident we'll eventually have a solution that will work without patching/hacking core. We'll commit filefield_local (or roll it's functionality into another module) at that point. Until then, you can find a copy of filefield_local in the Open Media Project site's Code listing.

This module still being actively developed. Changes to the dev release will include the new metadata UI discussed on the Open Media Project group call on 10/8/2009.
