Upload videos to external services

Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.

Hi,

I would need some opinions in the following use-case: an application (in drupal 7) where I can upload files to external services (like youtube, vimeo, etc..). For example, when creating a content, there could be a field into which the user could upload a video, and that video afterwards will be posted to youtube or vimeo or maybe some other applications of this type. I made some research about that, and I actually did not find a good solution yet for drupal 7. I've seen the Media Mover module, the Video module but none of them have this features (at least not for drupal 7). So, I actually have 2 questions here:

  1. Do you know if there already a good solution for this issue?

  2. We have the resources to develop such a module and we would want to integrate this module (or modules) with Media or Media Mover, or Video, etc... I know that this group was created for the Media module, but what would you suggest in this case? Would this type of module(s) fit with the Media module, or maybe would make sense to integrate them with Media Mover or Video?

Best,

Vasi.

The video module has the ability to do so. You can define your own tanscoder engine for the video module and let it to convert videos on Youtube/Vimeo/Blip.tv using their API.

There is also the media_derivatives module, there are no engines currently for Youtube or Vimeo but the API is fairly robust and is what I'm using for creating a similar solution for archive.org.

If you're looking for a solution that works with the rest of the Media modules, http://drupal.org/project/media_derivatives is where to start. @civicpixel has been working on adding an engine that uploads to archive.org...

http://drupal.org/node/1289710

While the specific engines you want don't exist yet, I imagine they will all follow the same pattern similar to how all the player/provider modules (media_youtube, media_vimeo, media_bliptv) share a common structure. The focus of the GSoC was to create a really solid structure for adding all engines with the hope that the upload engines would come later from community contributions. @slashrsm succeeded on that level.

I'd really like to see all of the upload engines in Video ported to Media Derivatives so they are a more modular and and aren't part of a single, monolithic project where the responsibility for updates and support falls on a very small number of developers.

I am actually planning to develop media_derivatives engine for youtube uploads, but rush at job and university (I passed last exam and I'm writing my thesis at the moment) prvented me from doing it.

I'm still interested in this and we could do it together, if ther is the intest for that. I'm currently away from home, but I'll return on sunday. I'll be more responsive after that.

thank you very much for your suggestions, I will try all of them and come back with a solution. At a first glance, it seems that the media_derivatives module is the best option.

Best,

Vasi.

Hi Vasi and Janez,

Can you post links to relevant issues/projects and/or dev/sandbox code in here, when you start working on this?

All of this looks very cool and promising!

Upload to YouTube

Posted by guschilds on May 14, 2012 at 2:59pm

Hi all,

I've searched quite a bit for a Drupal 7 solution to upload directly to YouTube, very similar to vasi1186's original inquiry. Definitely something that is needed.

Has any progress been made on implementing this within the Video and/or Media Derivates module? A first glance says no, but wanted to double check before considering any development.

Thanks,
Gus

Yes, there's already a 1.0 release of media_derivatives_youtube. I haven't tried it yet, but it looks like it's supported.

Yes it is, I had no known of the existence of this discussion but that's actually what Media Derivatives: Youtube Engine do. It works well on my productions sites but reviews are welcomes.
I join you to have a look to http://drupal.org/node/1323430 as it improve the process a lot!
