media

Hey Everyone!

Recently launched this site using a system of arguments and taxonomy to organize content.

If interested in deploying something similar, please let me know. I've been overwhelmed with work lately, but if people were interested in how I sorted my media site out, I'd love to help...and could probably use the motivation. Please let me know what you think!

Hope all is well, Drupalites!

Ben

I love what media is and what it wants to become. However it just isn't jiving with my plans just yet.

Am I able to uninstall the latest dev without issues ? If not what would be a best practice for hiding it.

I'm trying to create an audio library similar to this with Drupal 7. While I've replicated a good deal of functionality using Views, Media, and jPlayer, I'm stuck on the playlist functionality. Any suggestions on how to do this in Drupal 7? Example again below:

Olá a todos,

Eis os vídeos registados pelo Rui Figueiredo (ruif13) no Camp. Havia apenas uma câmara. Como tal apenas as sessões no auditório ficaram registadas em vídeo. Existem versões SD e HD.

O Victor Cardoso (vcardoso) tratou dos áudios:

No caso das sessões avançadas apenas existem duas registadas, a do Nick sobre Solr e a do Pedro Cambra sobre o DrupalCommerce.

Overview: The existing Media Gallery is brilliant. I will like to extend it.

Description: In this project, I will develop an API module to extend Media Gallery and developing other features.
1) Making API to extend Media Gallery
2) Ability to import complete albums from Picasa and Flickr
3) Making a media gallery with tags{ from existing Media }
4) Listing associated gallery in a block
5) Add other features if time permits

Has anyone had any luck connecting using the media module to process media uploaded into a specific folder?
I've got 300 photos I'd like to add to a gallery, but I want to put the files on the server through SSH, not through the Media module's plupload uploader, which I can't get working anyway.

Any suggestions?

Overview – Extend functionalities of and add new features to Media module.

Description - This project will contribute to the on going development of Media (http://drupal.org/project/media) module and extend its functionalities further. The main goal will be to provide integration with WYSIWYG editor.
I will work on following features -

• Embedding of all media types with a fallback: http://drupal.org/node/1016376 (related to http://drupal.org/node/832372)
• Automation of configuration steps for WYSIWYG Integration (http://drupal.org/node/692838)
• Provide a common 'copy embed code' button http://drupal.org/node/1048698
• Floating images left and right: http://drupal.org/node/1043570
• Write tests for WYSIWYG integration (http://drupal.org/node/1026532)

I also plan to enhance the image functionality further by providing following features (if time permits)-

• Provide options to set image title, alternate title, description, caption, hyperlink, alignment, size, etc.
• Provide option to edit the image with the following features -
• Crop
• Rotate
• Flip horizontally and vertically
• Common filters such as brightness and contrast control.

This project is for Drupal 7.

File browser to the Internet...

Features

* Add media of all types (Images, Audio, Video, Documents) into any textarea (requires Wysiwyg module)
* Use the fields API (formerly CCK) to add fields to any type of media. Think captions on images and genres on audio.
* Flexible display filters to do on-the-fly image manipulation, flash based players for A/V, etc (with the Styles module)
* Plugins to use remote media from sites like youtube, flickr, etc
* A unified interface for adding any type of media as a field to a node (or in the future - users and terms as well).
* Administration screens for CRUD dealing with Media
* Mass import of files
* Drag and drop upload (w/ plupload module)
* Multiple selection for galleries, etc in the media browser

Features (In progress)

* Drop-in replacement for any file upload field in Drupal

Features (Planned)

* Fine grained access control for viewing / editing media
* Many many more :)

I didn't have time to float the idea beforehand, because this was a module created for a client site, which I've now cleaned up and released.

Mediapool is used to fill a placeholder in a node with a random taxonomy-driven piece of media when the node is displayed. The initial (D6) release contains Imagepool for images.

I’m an intermediate Drupal user at best and i am certainly not a developer. I’m trying to get a handle on Drupal 7’s media handling and file structure. If this is not the appropriate place to post this question, any help in directing me to the right place would be very helpful.

Let me start with some general questions and then maybe i’ll be able to articulate some questions about specific uses of the module.

1. What precisely is a media asset? That is, it’s neither a node, nor a taxonomy term, comment, etc. So what is it? A new entity? Is its proper name “media asset”? Will it find its way into things like the “Terminology” page?
2. How do/will media assets relate to Taxonomy? That is, it is possible to assign terms to media, but are/will media assets be searchable and discoverable like nodes?
3. How do/will media assets relate to URL aliases? That is, can the option to apply replacement patterns to media assets be expected, the same way replacement patterns are applied to content paths, taxonomy term paths and user paths? Is this simply an issue for the Pathauto/Token modules?

To the extent that i understand Media module, it seems like it could have some too-good-to-be true uses, but i want to make sure i’m actually getting it and not just sticking my amateur nose where it doesn’t belong. Thanks for any insight!
