Video Authoring Team Reboot | |
Renewed interest in producing how-to videos for Tiki has led to a reboot of this team and update of the information on this page. There is demand from users for new instructional videos. Making these videos helps users directly by supplementing the documentation at doc.tiki.org, and indirectly increases awareness of and enhances the perception of Tiki. The main focus at this time is how-to videos, aka screencasts or video tutorials. Other types of videos such as interviews and TikiFest reports or streams are also very welcome and will be included in the video resources organized by this team. |

Doc.tiki.org Video Resources tracker and pages | |
There is now a tracker at the doc site (https://doc.tiki.org/tracker20) where information about how-to videos can be submitted. Each video then gets its own page (using https://doc.tiki.org/Video_information_tpl as a template). So far there's just a test entry (https://doc.tiki.org/tiki-view_tracker_item.php?itemId=393&show=mod) whose wiki page is https://doc.tiki.org/Test-video. Suggestions are welcome about changing/adding fields in the tracker, etc. So far, the wiki template hasn't been styled; the video's wiki page is just displaying the information as it comes from the tracker. The next steps are to make a structure for these video wiki pages and to make a video information submission form page. In the meantime, items can be submitted directly at the tracker. |
Earlier thinking + new thoughts | |
Tiki video channel objectives | |
Those objectives could become channel themes.

Platforms | |
(Whatever platform is used, it would be good to have a community repository for archive copies of videos. Blip.tv is now gone, and Tiki's Ustream videos are no longer available, etc. Or upload videos to several free platforms just to be safe(?). ) Kaltura.com hosting[The consensus at the March 2018 Roundtable meeting seemed to be that Kaltura's services for open source projects perhaps hadn't evolved much from before, so there wasn't much enthusiasm to pursue using Kaltura particularly for Tiki project videos. Of course to the extent that Kaltura is useful for Tiki website users in general, that should continue to be supported, but that isn't the focus of the efforts here. (Videos on TikiFest2012-NewYork-Kaltura aren't currently displaying, by the way.)] YouTube ChannelPlus

Transform tv.tiki.org into a perspective of tiki.orgRegardless of where the videos are served from, what matters is the amount of space the CDN uses. Tiki needs a tool that calculates video weight. A video size calculator would allow admins to decide whether a video a user wants to can be stored or not. Plus
