Medienbetrachter zielt darauf ab, das Betrachten von Multimedia-Inhalten auf Wikipedia und Wikimedia zu verbessern. Dafür stellt es Bilder größer dar und vermindert Unübersichtlichkeit. Es wurde vom Multimedia-Team der Wikipedia Foundation entwickelt.

Wir bereiten uns jetzt darauf vor, dieses Werkzeug sukzessive als Standardeinstellung für das Betrachten von Multimedia-Inhalten einzuführen, wie in unserem Veröffentlichungsplan beschrieben.

Zu diesem Zweck seid ihr herzlich willkommen, die aktuelle Version 0.2, wie hier umrissen, zu testen; aktiviert dafür den Medienbetrachter in euren Beta-Einstellungen. Nach dem Testen des Werkzeuges laden wir euch ein, uns eure Erfahrungen und Ideen mitzuteilen: Zur Diskussion.

Im IRC-Chat: Um mehr über diese Neueinführung zu erfahren nehmt bitte am nächsten IRC-Chat, Mittwoch den 09. 04. um 18:00 UTC, teil. Um über den neusten Stand unserer Arbeit informiert zu werden, tragt euch in unsere Multimedia Mail-Liste ein.

Why Media Viewer?
The purpose of this tool is to:
 * Provide a richer multimedia experience, to match user expectations
 * Display images in larger size, on the same page as the thumbnail you click on
 * Reduce confusion when users click on thumbnails (bypass duplicate file info page on Wikipedias)

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

How does Media Viewer work?








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

Lightbox View
The 'Lightbox view' for this tool includes:

The image is shown in large size against a black background, as an overlay that fills up the entire browser page where you clicked on the thumbnail. This makes the image stand out more and removes some of the visual clutter typically found on a text-heavy page.
 * Image

These browsing tools are the key features in this version 0.2:
 * Viewing Tools
 * Next and Previous arrows (to browse through related images)
 * Full screen button (expands into full-screen view)
 * Close 'X' button (goes back to article view)

We also offer special tools for using images for a variety of purposes:
 * Use this file
 * Use/share this file (screenshot)
 * Embed this file (screenshot)
 * Download this file (screenshot)

Here is the information that is shown immediately below the image, in a small meta-data strip (see mockup):
 * Primary Information
 * File name (Zonotrichia atricapilla)
 * Author (e.g. Alejandro Erickson)
 * Source (e.g. Bird Institute)
 * License Info (e.g. CC-BY-SA-2.0) (or link to license info)
 * Chevron icon for opening the metadata panel to reveal more info (see below)

Here is the information that is shown below the fold, once you open the metadata panel (by clicking on the chevron or scrolling):
 * Secondary Information
 * Description
 * Site name and link (e.g. 'Learn more on Wikimedia Commons')
 * Uploader name (e.g. Smallbones)
 * Creation Date (e.g. 12 April, 2012)
 * Location (e.g. place name and/or geotag coordinates, if any)
 * Categories (e.g. Birds of British Columbia, Zonotrichia atricapilla … more> )
 * File usage (e.g. 'This file is being used by 5 other pages. ')
 * Permissions (e.g. special credits or restrictions) (screenshot)
 * More meta-data may be added to this panel over time

Full Screen View
The 'full-screen view' for this tool will show a large image across the entire screen, with minimal information and buttons available on hover.

This is the view that lets you focus exclusively on the image, with no other distractions. When you click on the full screen icon, you see the largest version of the image that fits within the user's entire screen (not just the browser window). In this mode, you only see the controls, the file name and the author/source/license if you hover over the image.

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.
