media

The Media module image gallery uploader is great: robust, multiple batch uploading.

However I would like to ask if a project is being considered whereby Flickr is used as the hosting of the images?

This would provide 2 benefits:
1) publishing content to a wider audience on more platforms without duplicate effort i.e. to the site and to flickr at the same time
2) reduced bandwidth and filespace used on the hosting - particularly for budget and shared hosting

Does OpenPublish on Drupal 7 have the acquia media module - this module provides excellent photography gallery handling, including extremely easy to use uploading - multiple photos at a time.

If not, will it include it?

If not including it, then can I add it without incompatibility issues with OpenPublish image handling?

Does OpenPublish image/photo handling have better features than Acquia media module?

I think the acquia media module is excellent and would be inclined to think providing yet another image handling module would reinvent the wheel.

This project is about building a Digital Asset Server for your enterprise. We will build upon with the existing open source project Mediamosa - http://www.mediamosa.org/ (demos at http://demo.mediamosa.org/). Mediamosa is a Drupal distribution which stores your enterprises media assets such as images, video, and audio. Mediamosa stores media and taxonomy details for each asset (format, duration, height/width, tags, title, description, etc.) as well as rights information about each asset (geo based, time based, etc.).

I'm new to the media module, and am trying to extend it to pull a list of images from the file system rather than the database.

Here's my situation:
Imagine a multi-site environment like drupalgardens.com where you may have dozens of unique websites using a shared code base. You'd like to provide a shared image library for all website owners to view and choose images from. For obvious reasons, you don't want to maintain this library at the database level for each site, but rather at the code level just once.

I look at Media 1 year ago and now, but nothing has changed even (including version 2) with this to simple things.

Look at this:

You can build a spaceship with Drupal but we can't do simple things.

CMS or CMF is primarily a management articles. Insert a media in to content and beautiful design media content in artcle - is the main problem.

I would like to use Views to display, in a block, real thumbnails of images uploaded using tools based on the Drupal 7 Media Gallery module in a grid of images with a certain tag (using filter in views).

By real thumbnails, I mean either cropped small images of the original or the entire original reduced in size. This kind of thumbnail is efficient at loading. I do not want thumbnails which are simply the browser's on-the-fly scaling down of the original.

Afternoon,

Due to a need at the company I work for, I am starting to put together the use cases for a web services front end to the Media module.

Im running Drupal 6 on my local/home server while I test things and set new items up. I decided to create a playlist for playing albums in OSM player. I used the following tutorial and it seems just about everything worked as noted in the tutorial:

May I ask: For a developer who wants a live (D7) site, can they theoretically use audiofield, video, and any one of the image modules to let users attach and display rich media in posts now while reasonably expecting a future path to integration with the media module? - I want users to be able to add audio, video, or images in whatever format and then presented to the site viewers. I'm confused as to whether media can do any of this now. I would also like to have them transcoded to mp3 or h.264 but I don't believe this is possible at this moment correct?

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.
