| 3 | ==================== | |
| 4 | Enabling Media Types | |
| 5 | ==================== | |
| 6 | ||
| 7 | In the future, there will be all sorts of media types you can enable, | |
| 8 | but in the meanwhile there's only one additional media type: video. | |
| 9 | ||
| 10 | First, you should probably read ":doc:`configuration`" to make sure | |
| 11 | you know how to modify the mediagoblin config file. | |
| 12 | ||
| 13 | Video | |
| 14 | ===== | |
| 15 | ||
| 16 | To enable video, first install gstreamer and the python-gstreamer | |
| 17 | bindings (as well as whatever gstremaer extensions you want, | |
| e91a4dcb | 18 | good/bad/ugly). On Debianoid systems:: |
| 9bc2fc6c CAW |
19 | |
| 20 | sudo apt-get install python-gst0.10 | |
| 21 | ||
| e91a4dcb WKG |
22 | Next, modify (and possibly copy over from ``mediagoblin.ini``) your |
| 23 | ``mediagoblin_local.ini``. Uncomment this line in the ``[mediagoblin]`` | |
| 24 | section:: | |
| 9bc2fc6c CAW |
25 | |
| 26 | media_types = mediagoblin.media_types.image, mediagoblin.media_types.video | |
| 27 | ||
| 28 | Now you should be able to submit videos, and mediagoblin should | |
| 29 | transcode them. | |
| 30 | ||
| 31 | Note that you almost certainly want to separate Celery from the normal | |
| 32 | paste process or your users will probably find that their connections | |
| 33 | time out as the video transcodes. To set that up, check out the | |
| 34 | ":doc:`production-deployments`" section of this manual. |
