Extension:Media Viewer/About/he


 * See also: Help:Multimedia/Media Viewer



Media Viewer aims to improve the multimedia viewing experience on Wikipedia and Wikimedia sites, to display images in larger size and with less clutter. It is developed by the Wikimedia Foundation's multimedia team.

We're now getting ready to deploy this feature gradually as the default viewing experience, as described in this release plan.

To that end, we invite you to test the latest version 0.2, as outlined here (you can test it on this demo page, after enabling Media Viewer in your Beta preferences). After you've tried the tool, we invite you to let us know what you think and join our discussion. Hope to see you there!

IRC Chat: To learn more about this release, please join our next IRC chat, on Wed. Apr. 9 at 18:00 UTC at Wikimedia's Office IRC Channel. To keep up with our work, subscribe to our multimedia mailing list.

למה מציג המדיה?
מטרת כלי זה הוא:
 * לספק חווית מולטימדיה עשירה יותר התואם את צפיות המשתמש
 * להציג תמונה רחבה, באותו דף בו אתם לוחצים על התמונה
 * להקטין את הבילבול כאשר המשתמשים לוחצים על סמליל ממוזער על התמונה (עוקף בעיית דפי מידע כפולים בויקיפדיה)

It aims to serve all users of Wikipedia, Commons and other MediaWiki sites: from casual readers to experienced editors.

Current features include:
 * Show images in larger size when you click on them
 * Modal panel opens up as overlay (on same page where you clicked)
 * Large image appears without clutter, for a more immersive experience
 * Information about the image can be accessed easily
 * Images in a collection can be browsed easily
 * Images can be shown in full-screen mode

איך מציג המדיה עובד?








Media Viewer offers a variety of features in either 'Lightbox' or 'Full screen' views. To learn more, read this help file.

תצוגת "תיבה מוארת"
תצוגת "תיבה מוארת" כוללת:

התמונה מוצגת בתצוגה רחבה ברקע שחור שמשתרע על כל רוחב הדפדפן, כאשר לוחצים על הסמליל. זה מאפשר להבליט את התמונה ומונע חלק מכשלי התצוגה בדפים מרובי טקסטים.

תצוגת מסך-מלא
תצוגת מסך-מלא בהרחבה זו מציג את התמונה על מסך מלא, עם מידע מיזערי ומספר כפתורי ניווט.

זו תצוגה שמאפשרת להתמקד בתמונה בלבד, ללא מסיחים אחרים. כאשר לוחצים על סמליל מסך-מלא, התמונה מוצגת בגרסה הרחבה ביותר בכל גודל המסך (ולא רק בדפדפן). במצב זה, מוצגים רק סמליל הניווט, שם הקובץ, שם היוצר והרישיון מוצגים רק כאשר עוברים עם סמן העכבר בתחתית המסך.

When will it be released?
We have begun a gradual release of version v0.2 of Media Viewer, starting with a limited test on a few pilot sites in April 2014 -- and a wider release on all wikis in May 2014, as described in this release plan.

To prepare for this release, we invite you to test the latest version v0.2 on this demo page on MediaWiki.org or on your own site (be sure to enable Media Viewer first in your Beta preferences).

In this first release, the Media Viewer only supports the most widely used image file formats (e.g.: JPEG, GIF, PNG, TIFF, SVG). In future releases, we will gradually add support for other file formats (e.g.: PDF), as well as audio and video file formats. Learn more in this help page.

How can I help?
Can you help us test Media Viewer in coming days? Version 0.2 of this beta feature is now available for testing by logged-in users on all wikis. For example, you can test it on this demo page on MediaWiki.org (don't forget to enable Media Viewer in your Beta Features preferences page).

If you're feeling adventurous, you can test the latest features before they are released, on this beta site, but performance will be much slower on that site. For better performance, you can test last week’s features here on MediaWiki.org. We release every Thursday on MediaWiki.org, then Monday on Commons and sister sites, then the following Thursday on all wikis.

To test either version of Media Viewer, click on the small 'Beta' link next to 'Preferences' in your personal menu. Then check the box next to 'Media Viewer' in the Beta Features section of your user preferences — and click 'Save' (see screenshot). You can turn off any this option anytime, by reversing these steps.

Try out Media Viewer and let us know what you think on this discussion page. If you find any technical bugs, please [//bugzilla.wikimedia.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=MediaWiki%20extensions&component=MultimediaViewer report them here on Bugzilla].

Over 20,000 other beta testers have now enabled Media Viewer around the world. Here is an overview of the feedback they have kindly given us to help improve this tool. Many of their suggestions are now being implemented, as part of our current release plan.

Note: in this current release, the Media Viewer will only support the most widely used image file formats (e.g.: JPEG, GIF, PNG, TIFF, SVG). In future releases, we plan to add support for more file formats, such as PDF, audio and video files.
