Media Metadata module for Silverstripe

This module allows metadata to be extracted from audio and video media files.

This module works best with the memoryimage module from https://github.com/tractorcow/silverstripe-memoryimage. If you have this installed then you can also extract, resize, and display embedded album art on pages.

Credits and Authors

Requirements

  • SilverStripe 2.4.5, may work on lower versions

Installation Instructions

  • Extract all files into the 'mediadata' folder under your Silverstripe root.
  • To extract extra metadata from a File object you can use the MediaData property to access it.
