Open Media Project

This group is where users and developers of the Knight sponsored Open Media Project share information, discussions, and documentation. The Open Media Project is both a suite of modules based on the system developed by Denver Open Media and the group of 7 development partners who are contributing development, testing, documentation, training or other resources to make the Open Media modules more usable for both the PEG and Drupal communities.

The primary goal of the Open Media Project is to leverage Drupal to give local communities more control over their public access channel. The system will build on several existing modules and maintain the suite of new modules through Drupal's CVS. This is a different approach than most of the previous investments the PEG community has made in Drupal. We are also committed to developing modules that are flexible enough for a variety of uses beyond public access channels.

Current Custom Modules: Open Media Project, Open Media Show, Open Media Airing, Open Media Playback Servers, Open Media Timeslot Scheduler, Open Media Support, Internet Archive and MERCI.

What is exactly Open Media?

Could someone explain what Open Media is?
I am interested in creating a social network using the Media module where people can post videos and photos.
Is this possible with Open media or the related modules?
Thanks for your time

Drupal 7 Media sprint

Start: 
2011-09-24 09:00 - 2011-09-28 17:00 America/Chicago

Many of the current maintainers of the Media module are meeting for a week-long sprint in Chicago on September 24-28 (Saturday to Wednesday) to help push the module to a stable 1.0 release, work on important features for the 2.x branch, and help plan a potential Drupal 8 media initiative.

Because space is very limited, virtual participation in the #drupal-media IRC channel is highly encouraged and welcome! If you are very interested in attending in person, please contact Dave Reid.

Where is Open Media headed?

There is a LOT of work being done with Open Media modules right now that is not being reflected on this list. On Drupal 7. A lot of things are in development, and I will only speak from my own experiences - but I'll post and hope others will add. Please correct any errors.

There really seem to be two aspects of the Open Media System that are being implemented concurrently.

1) Facility and Project Management through modules like MERCI and OM_Show.

MERCI questions

First is it best to set my roles before entering information into MERCI? Let's say am going to assign roles based off membership levels, would it be best to do so first and then enter in the different MERCI content types?

Also, am going to have 3 edit stations would this lend itself better as a Bucket item.

Thank you

Sven

Presenting Media in Drupal - Dallas Drupal Days 2011 presentation

For those interested, I just completed a talk at the Dallas Drupal Days conference here in Dallas TX where I talked about presenting media in Drupal 7. I recorded this video so that anybody who did not attend can watch it. This presentation goes over the awesome combination of Drupal 7 + Media module + MediaFront and HTML5 multimedia within Drupal 7.

•   warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in C:\wamp\www\hosted\seattlecommunitymedia\modules\filefield_paths\filefield_paths.module on line 389.
•   warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in C:\wamp\www\hosted\seattlecommunitymedia\modules\filefield_paths\modules\filefield.inc on line 50.

Any ideas why?
Thank you in advance for your help.

Broadcast Server Recommendations and Experiences

Looking for input on anyone with these broadcast server experience - particularly in terms of their "open Source" cooperative philosophy and system compatibility. I have worked with Telvue, and they have been very cool and I like their base system.
Don't want to "color" this too much with my particular bias, and the devil is in the details - but I am now looking at (for a new station)

Telvue Princeton series B100, 3000 & Pro (might want HD / SD)

TightRope SX 2 (or LE) - (really like multi-format playback)

Where do Derivatives Belong in the D7 Media Ecosystem?

Inspired (guilted) by the recent discussions about private planning sessions on the development list and the number of posts to the How to help get Media to 1.0 release and beyond issue @tsvenson started back in January, I wanted to get this posted sooner rather than later. I've shown this graphic and discussed the structure with several people involved in large media sites, but most of these discussions have been happening in person or over email.

Thinking about adopting MERCI for a Institute of Technology kit lending system

Hi guys,
firstly congrats on Merci. Im not a DRUPAL user but I've found it very easy to create a prototype MERCI based site using your modules. Well done.
I would recommend that you consider taking a look at the LEIHS project (http://code.zhdk.ch/projects/leihs). It is an open source resource booking system and we almost adopted here in my institution but backed away from it as its based on Ruby on Rails (Im not a fan). That said the system has some great features that may act as a good source of inspiration for the MERCI team.

Launching a locally created website. Databasing with Drupal. Migration of SQL data with drupal.

I am using MAMP and Acquia Dev Desktop Control Panel to manage and create websites locally (for clients).

We are establishing a new workflow/methodology in terms of how we launch our websites once they are completed. We would like to build everything locally, while synchronizing data on a hosting account (i.e. HostMonster.com, etc) if possible. How do we do that? (with the recommended workflow) Therefore, we can essentially launch everything on one command.

My question, that hopefully somebody can answer, what is the best way to accomplish this?

Content Agent Less Robust Than We Thought

channelAustin has been using a proprietary software tool called Content Agent to encode .mov files to the MPEG2 format required for playback on our Synergy Broadcast system. Content Agent in our work flow has been previously discussed. See http://groups.drupal.org/node/19135

We also decided some time ago to use Content Agent to encode H.264 files for VOD on the web with the OM Show module. And so we added an H.264 encode process to the workflow. We've now decided to stop doing that.
