overview

I have tried several time to run the screencasts on the Openpublish site.

The JWplayer is tooo slow. I've given up three times now.

Note * all the time I have been over here writing this the JSPlayer has been running to render the Overview.

It is still running, and I've come back from the site to make these two sentences.

Maybe you should youtube the screencasts and embed them. They would render then.

Also, flowplayer is pretty good for proprietary video playback.

Installation:
The current version of Drupal is 4.7 as of this writing. It can be downloaded at drupal.org and installed on any server running PHP & MySQL with little problem. The installation process is well documented but there are a lot of variables involved in the configuration once you have it up. This document will mainly try to address these choices and present possibilities and examples from various IMCs.

Module Installation:
Once you have the core of Drupal installed you will probably want to install some modules. This is where the drupal experience can become quite confusing, exciting and time consuming. There are a wide variety of modules available for download from drupal.org, and many of them are constantly updating and adding features. Some of them duplicate functions and others hardly work. For an indymedia site to work we will want to enable a few of them at least in order to give multi-media functionality to the drupal site. Here are a few modules I'd recommend.
