About Multimedia App

The Multimedia application is built in the Application Development Framework (ADF).

Overview

The multimedia application seamlessly integrates both locally hosted audio and video into your web site as well as multimedia from 3rd party sites such as youtube and Vimeo.

Multimedia is displayed by first choosing a category or series, which filters media to determine it's eligibility for display, and then by selecting the display format in which to present the media.

Multimedia is managed through an administrative page containing the multimedia manager.

More details for the PT Multimedia can be found in the overview page.

Pre-installation Considerations

Application Development Framework (ADF) must be setup and configured on the server for the site that will be implementing the multimedia application. For detailed instructions, see the Application Development Framework (ADF) wiki page for Site Configurations.

This installation guide assumes that you have no Custom Elements/Metadata Forms with the names above. Before the installation of PT Multimedia, remove any Custom Elements/Metadata Forms with the names contained in the "Contents" section above (see exception below). If you do not remove existing elements with these names, you may have difficulties during the installation.

Exception - The Custom Text Area Field is part of the ADF extensions and not specific to the PT Multimedia application. Do not remove this field if it is already registered as a custom field for your site.
