Video

The 2006, with the explosions of huge video based community websites such as Youtube, has shown how video contents are becoming one of the most direct and cool to use web communication approach.

Drupal, as a leading open source content management platform, absolutely needs a good and globally accepted video content approach.

This group aims to get ideas and coordinating efforts between the different people involved in the video content development. The goal is to provide drupal with an easy, powerful and extensible support for videos.

Video module 7.x-2.1-alpha2, what you should know?

Posted by hypertext200 on September 14, 2011 at 4:30am

Original post : http://heididev.com/video-module-7x-2x-what-you-should-know

I released video module 7.x-2.1-alpha2 version on 11th of Sep. This major version completely redesign the video module and its core, I'm the only one worked on this release and seems our co-maintainers (6.x) had no time to contribute code to the 7.x yet. I'm very very happy about the progress of downloading and using video module. It has over 10,500+ usage now.

In this article I'm going to examine some new features added to the video module.

On Dec 4th I released an enhanced video module build with many new features. Specially now its supporting HTML5 videos on Drupal sites. Not only they we added number of new enhancements to the module to improve the user experience and many other aspects.

Here are the list of new features and would like to get more user inputs to improve the usability of the module.

I've recently finished a big video project, hoping to be the next big YouTube. I'm hoping they are too. In the process I encountered a host of different challenges as you do with any new project. I thought I'd share some of the critical success variables back with the community. Hopefully, I'll help you avoid some of the growing pains I suffered through.

User group meeting

Fellow Media Moguls,

We're shaking off the dust from the Media module, which was sadly neglected during the heady Summer of Code, where we got Stream Wrappers into core! I'm excited to meet now with my fellow Drupalistas, and get the module presentable for Drupal 7 (and Drupal 6, if anyone is interested in helping on that front).

Adobe MAX 2009 conference in Los Angeles, California

Posted by Chris Charlton on August 26, 2009 at 4:13pm

Adobe's annual MAX conference is taking place this October 4-7th in Los Angeles, CA. I will be presenting three Drupal related sessions at this conference for Adobe. Most of my sessions show people how to customize Drupal 6 through themes, modules, and its administration. My sessions are 1-1.5hrs, with one session being a lab (BYOL: Bring Your Own Laptop Lab).

Adobe MAX is a paid conference, and has something like over 200 sessions. Early bird discount still available (as of this writing).

http://max.adobe.com

My sessions are:

Customizing Drupal Using Dreamweaver - skill: Beginner - Learn how to install Drupal, a robust, full-featured web content management system, and publish your first pages. You'll be guided through common designer workflows using Drupal and learn how to customize Drupal theme templates. When this lab is complete, you'll be able to take your new skills back to work and be more productive.
Exploring Web Content Management Systems from a Designer's Perspective - skill: Beginner - Watch an expert guide you through a selection of today's popular web content management systems and learn which one is right for you. This session will include detailed demonstrations of WordPress, Drupal, and the Adobe InContext Editing service in action, covering installation and publishing.
Learn to Rock Drupal Using Dreamweaver - skill: Beginner - Explore the functionality of Drupal from a designer's perspective while learning about the most common workflows. Learn how to integrate Drupal with Dreamweaver and how to use Creative Suite 4 Web Premium to customize Drupal theme templates.

I have presented at MAX before, and attended twice. This conference is huge. Last year 5,000 attendees ran around chatting Flash, Flex, AIR, Photoshop, After Effects, everything Adobe. One of the new things Adobe has done at MAX is run un-conferences inside the main conference building. Last year there were four un-conferences going on all week inside MAX, adding to the already hundreds of sessions. This year I am involved with the Web CMS theme of the conference, promoting Drupal & PHP. Some of you know my Drupal Dreamweaver extensions and Theme Starter desktop software, so I am glad to be exclusively covering Drupal in my talks this year. One session covers the different approaches in Web CMS software like Wordpress & Drupal. For that session I will be sharing the stage for that session with a Wordpress counterpart. I hope that session turns into a feature flinging match as it'll help me get caught up with Wordpress limitations.

I'd like to promote the MAX conference to the Drupal community, and at the same time ask who is already planning to attend. We can meet up and rep Drupal together.

Chat Module

Posted by Sciera on July 2, 2009 at 1:26am

Hi Guys,

Can anyone recommend me a good chat solution for Drupal 6. I am trying to evaluate different solutions like DimDim, 123FlashChat Server, avchat(avchat.com)..

Has anyone used any of these solutions.. Will U recommend any?

I will be using this for a Learning Management solution. I would like to host online presentations, do whiteboarding, have the ability to control the time the chat sessions are on; All chat sessions will need to be stored and indexed for later retrieval. I will be using the apache solr module. That part seems to work fine.

Bring Youtube video comments onto your Drupal Site?

Posted by jdvc on June 24, 2009 at 6:46am

Does anyone know if there is an easy way to pull the comments left for youtube videos onto your Drupal site? Ideally they would automatically be integrated into the comments section on a page where you have a YouTube video embedded. I know its possible, but would probably take a bit of work... Thanks!

Free lunch for LA developer help

Posted by goldsounds on May 29, 2009 at 2:51am

Hi there,

I'm a Melbourne-based programmer visiting LA until Sunday, working to migrate a non-profit student media & training site to a new Drupal back-end and building in a lot of video stuff. It's my first Drupal site and on a tiny budget. I'll buy someone lunch or dinner if they offer some help on the basics :-) I've got Drupal installed, themed, and a bunch of modules enabled, but I really want to finesse my solution.

Contact me at dan(AT)gravityrail.com.

Thanks,
Dan

Embedding Private YouTube videos

Posted by tjjacobsen on May 13, 2009 at 1:05am

Hi all,

Im hoping this is an easy one, but as Im a novice at the video game, I could use some help.

Simply put, can I embed YouTube videos marked as "Private" onto my Drupal site?

A little background: the site is used for by a professor who wishes to sell access to his lectures. I have Ubercart w/ node access running nicely, and the videos are uploaded to YouTube, but obviously, if he is charging a fee for access, we don't want people to simply be able to view them for free on YouTube.
