Extension:TimedMediaHandler/pt-br

The TimedMediaHandler extension allows you to display audio and video files in wiki pages, using the same syntax as for image files. It includes the Kaltura HTML5 Player and an experimental VideoJS Player. There is support for subtitles and captions (aka Timed Text) and real time stream switching between multiple WebM and other derivatives and many other features. TMH server side support includes options for uploading HTML5 audio and video, multiple transcode profiles to deliver content, Metadata parsing for Ogg and WebM videos and integrates with MediaWiki's jobQueue system for scheduling transcoding jobs.

Sinopse da sintaxe
In addition to the image embed syntax, Timed Media Handler supports:


 * Video.ogv
 * Display a video at its nominal size. Displays a still image from the midpoint with a play button to start an embedded player.


 * Audio.oga
 * Show a placeholder for a sound file, with a play button to start an embedded player.


 * Video.ogv
 * Show a video in a floating thumbnail box


 * Show a video embedded in an image gallery ( each clip will popup a dialog for the full player )
 * Show a video embedded in an image gallery ( each clip will popup a dialog for the full player )


 * Video.ogg
 * Use a frame from 1 minute 25 seconds into the video as the placeholder image. A single number is taken as an offset in seconds.


 * Video.ogg
 * Temporal media fragments Displays a video clip starting at 1 minute 25 seconds into the video. A single number is taken as an offset in seconds. You can also include an end time of the form  Which would result in a clip of 5 seconds playing from 1:25 to 1:30. If thumbtime is not provided, the start time will be used for the displayed thumbnail.


 * Deprecated
 * The syntax words noicon and noplayer are deprecated and do not function. The keyword disablecontrols will likely be deprecated soon. It takes the following values: options, timedText, fullscreen

Suporte ao Cliente


The player works on most modern browsers and supports IE9 and later (The modern browsers as described in MediaWiki's support matrix). Mobile support is spotty, especially on iOS.

As of August 2015, TimedMediaHandler includes a JavaScript compatibility shim for Ogg audio/video that works in Safari, Internet Explorer 10/11, and Microsoft Edge browsers.

Third-party users of MediaWiki may also wish to manually enable MP4 H.264/AAC support for native video and audio playback in Safari/IE/Edge, but when using these formats you may need a patent license from MPEG-LA for internet broadcasting.

Instalação
Also see the for detailed install instructions.

You will want a recent version of ffmpeg in order to support encoding to WebM ( with the latest version of VP8). j^ supplies up-to-date static builds of ffmpeg with WebM support for major OSs at firefogg.org/nightly/

The extension will automatically add supported file types (except mp4) to $wgFileExtensions, so you do not need to manually add video file types.

Detailed options:

Configuração
Here are some configuration variables which may be useful:

For transcoding, make sure you have $wgMaxShellMemory, $wgMaxShellTime, $wgMaxShellFileSize are large enough to allow encoding jobs to run and save output. Default values are most likely too low.

Running transcode jobs
Because transcode jobs are resource intensive they will not run as part of normal job queue ( see bug 29336 ) Instead they must be requested by the --type argument:

Encoding nodes
To be able to transcode many videos you might want to run multiple encoding nodes that connect to the master db and access your file store directly. You will need to install ffmpeg.

Minimal install under Ubuntu 16.04
apt-get install ffmpeg

Road Map

 * Add support for transcoding from arbitrary format uploads.
 * Improve mobile support for uploading and playback ( via native aps if the browser html5 support does not include WebM )
 * Add support for WebM flattening of edited sequences
 * Add support for 8k videos
 * Upgrade to 2.x branch. (On hold. Planning on switching to video.js.)
 * Change Kaltura player to Video.js as our main video player.
 * Consistent mobile support
 * MPEG-DASH adaptive streaming
 * "GIF mode" for autoplay silent videos
 * MIDI input support
 * Better internal interface for connecting to Score, other extensions

Notas
These notes about the status of TimedMediaHandler were shared by Jan Gerber at the end of his consulting agreement for WMF on 27 September, 2013:

Since you asked in the last meeting to write up an overview of the current state of TimedMediaHandler, here we go:


 * videoscalers:
 * setup like jobrunners, but only processing video transcode jobs (configuration of jobs/memory/threads in puppet and wikimedia-config)


 * imagescalers:
 * extract frames from videos, using avconv for all videos reading videos via http from swift backend


 * proxy caches:
 * must support HTTP 206 Range Requests for video urls (currently requires custom code that is managed in puppet)


 * custom packages for video transcoding (apt.wikimedia.org):
 * ffmpeg2theora (new upstream version to reduce memory by only using one thread)
 * libav (ubuntu version with patch to fix memory leak in ogg decoder)
 * libvpx (new upstream version fixing various issues and quality improvements)


 * custom packages for image scaling (apt.wikimedia.org):
 * vips (new upstream version addressing various performance issues)


 * TimedMediaHandler:
 * Upstream coded included in TMH:
 * mwEmbed (https://github.com/kaltura/mwEmbed) has local changes needs to be merged during next update
 * PEAR File_Ogg (http://pear.php.net/package/File_Ogg) has local changes was part of OggHandler, Tim is upstream maintainer
 * getID3 (http://getid3.org) has small local changes but merged upstream

August 2015 update
Brion and TheDJ are starting up some new maintenance on TImedMediaHandler:

Done:
 * fixed some regressions in transcode handling
 * added /ogv.js JavaScript compatibility shim for Safari 6.1+, IE 10/11, and Edge
 * increasing Ogg transcode quality (increased bandwidth)
 * support subtitles in ogv.js
 * finish killing broken Cortado Java compatibility shim
 * retooling TMH's ResourceLoader modules for better compatibility
 * fix ogv.js issues
 * missing volume control

Todo 'small':
 * fix more transcode issues

Todo 'medium':
 * get transcoding from VP9/Opus working on Wikimedia servers...
 * transcoding to VP9/Opus WebM with decreased bandwidth
 * add Ogg skeleton to ogg audio transcodes for better seeking
 * integrate lightweight video player into Extension:MobileFrontend
 * rework serving Timed Text

Todo 'large':
 * replace Kaltura player with VideoJS
 * integrate video player into Extension:MultimediaViewer
 * integrate audio/video into Extension:VisualEditor
 * DASH or DASH-like adaptive streaming

Todo 'long-term':
 * get VP9 working fast enough on ogv.js to replace Ogg Theora transcodes
