Installation

------------

In order for video conversion to work correctly, you'll need ``ffmpeg``

installed which provides the ``avconv`` collection of command line utilities.

On Ubuntu, you should be able to install with::

    sudo apt-get install libav-tools

Plone 4

~~~~~~~

Must have plone.app.jquery >= 1.8.3

Conversion

----------

Force Conversion

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Uploaded videos can be forced through the video conversion process by enabling

the ``Force video conversion`` option. This option is useful if you would like

to transcode all videos down to a certain resolution; or if you want to enforce

a certain quality setting or video profile across all uploads.

Conversion Parameters

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You may like to pass certain parameters to ``avconv`` to customise the video

transcoding process. Extra ``infile`` and ``outfile`` options can be configured

in the control panel per video format:

    avconv [infile options] -i infile [outfile options] outfile.{format}

The latest version of ``avconv`` on Ubuntu may require

``-strict experimental`` as an ``outfile`` option for the mp4 format.

YouTube API Support

-------------------

Since version 2.0, YouTube integration is supported.

Videos can automatically be uploaded to a configured YouTube account.

Install

~~~~~~~

Different install requirements::

    eggs =

        ...

        wildcard.media[youtube]

        ...

Then, setup a google api with oauth access and configure the

``google_oauth_id`` and ``google_oauth_secret`` properties in the

Configuration Registry.
