p4a.video 1.4

Overview

The p4a.video package provides a framework for handling video content on the Zope 2 and Zope 3 platforms. It was inspired by the Plone ATVideo product and even borrows some UI.

Project Description

p4a.video allows you to:

• convert a file object to a video

• extract the video metadata

• render an appropriate view (depending on the file format)

Installation

p4a.video depends on the following packages:

• p4a.subtyper

• p4a.common

• p4a.z2utils

• p4a.fileimage

• hachoir_core

• hachoir_metadata

• hachoir_parser

If you use buildout, you can have it manage these dependencies by:

• adding these lines to your buildout.cfg file

[buildout]
...

eggs =
    ...
    p4a.video

[instance]
...

zcml =
    ...
    p4a.video

• re-run your buildout

• Install the add-ons from the Add-on Products page in the Plone Control Panel
