setting, and are typically set as '-b 600k -r 24 -ar 22050 -ab 96k'
.The meanings of these are as followsSetting | Meaning |
---|---|
-b 600k | set video bitrate of video to 600kbps |

Currently we need someone more familiar with flowplayer to upgrade the taglib to use the current version, which has changed significantly.Other items to be improved:- toggle related binary-based domain object so actual videos can be stored in DB (or no-SQL db) instead of FS
- toggle temp files being stored in working table in database, to avoid needing shared filesystem to process videos
- update html and styles on admin screens
- write actual unit tests
- convert taglibs to use gsp includes for flowplayer/jw-flv html
- add support for latest flowplayer versions
