This component enables you to integrate the contents of the Multi-media database ( dmmdb ) into a Drupal website.


Dmmdb component for Drupal : drupal-dmmdb-7.x-1.0

Once you have installed a dmmdb ( preferred installation from the CVS ), you can embed dmmdb blocks into your drupal 7.x website using the Drupal dmmdb component :

1/ get it using the CVS repository :

 export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@giss.tv:/home/cvs
 cvs login ( empty password )
 cvs co drupal-dmmdb-7.x-1.0

2/ install it as a normal drupal module :

 cp -rf drupal-dmmdb-7.x-1.0 <drupal-root>/sites/all/modules/dmmdb
 
 chown -R www-data:www-data <drupal-root>/sites/all/modules/dmmdb

3/ configure the module to get as many dmmdb blocks as you want.

4/ create a block with the following parameters :

  • List of channels or 'all' for all channels : a list of channels you want to see ( ex: giss, telenoika )
  • Number of videos per menu : number of accessible videos at once
  • Minimal aspect ( hide title and frame )
  • Width of dmmdb blocks
  • Show videos in a pop-up window : pop-up a modal window to play videos
  • Show search window : show search window
  • Show comments on media : show comments

Note : this is an experimental release, you might experience problems when using various themes and modules ( especially with the css and styles ), report these problems to us ( gissnetwork _at_ gmail.com ) as we cannot test every drupal configuration out there.

Note 2 : previous versions of drupal are not supported.
