Bluto Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 I never purchased IP.Gallery. But seeing it here on this forum makes me want to purchase it when IPB4 is finally released.I honestly wish IP.Gallery would support more than just still images. If IP.Gallery was "IP.Media" instead of "IP.Gallery" supporting video uploads and embedded videos from YouTube, etc... I would purchase it in a second. I know there are some mods out there for adding a video section to the community but something as important as multimedia IMHO should be part of an IPS core product.I have a forum which I could add a lot of videos from YouTube. As it is now, I have to create a thread for each video (unless I would purchase the video portal mod).I'm not an expert with IP.Gallery (don't own it) and maybe this has already been discussed on the forums... I haven't scanned the forums for posts about IP.Gallery. I just thought since you were re-writing everything for IPB4 adding a multimedia element to IP.Gallery and maybe even changing the name to IP.Media would be something to consider.

Warzone Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 You should wait till 4.0 Final are released! No doubt about that! One of my suggestions, that will make IP.Gallery attractive and awesome: http://community.invisionpower.com/topic/401237-sell-buy-images/ , Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to admit, I own a photo selling script... that can be quite profitable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warzone Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Yeah, i am, but i dont belive IPS want to add this feature in Gallery.

Honestly, it sounds complicated and I'm not sure a large majority of people would actually use it (I could be totally wrong). Sounds like something for a mod creator to make.Adding support for video uploads and embedded media I think a majority of the people who own IPB would use. I would even love if I could add Vine, Instagram, etc to the IP.Gallery - I could have a whole site based around IP.Gallery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warzone Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Im not going to pay $500 for a mod, if i was a billionaire i probably buy IPS, but not a mod like that, way to expensive. Well, they always go for the majority of the clients that are already here, they should probably look forward in the future, not look at what already are there, like VB and those other platforms do, look strait down on the ground and dont wanna add features that will bring more peoples. Oh well.... But video are already a feature in IP.Gallery But video are waaaay to heavy on a non extreme dedicated server with 1TB+ traffic/bandwidth, as videos takes ALOT of resources..

I didn't even realize that you could add videos to IP.Gallery. I guess it being called Gallery made me think it was only for images. My bad IPS for not reading all the information! Though, can you embed video in Gallery? Like I said, I don't own it. Maybe adding support for Vine and Instagram if it doesn't already exist. I wouldn't say they "look strait down on the ground and dont wanna add features that will bring more peoples." That's kinda harsh. They can't add every feature in the world to the core products... that's why there are mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Thomas Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 But can you add external videos like YouTube videos? Is this possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluto Posted November 19, 2014 Author Share Posted November 19, 2014 But can you add external videos like YouTube videos? Is this possible?I didn't see anything in the info on the main IPS site. It just says: Media support for movies & FlashHonestly, embedded is what I'm looking for more than allowing people to upload videos. Most people upload videos to YouTube of Vimeo anyway and probably wouldn't upload them to my site. Having Embedded YouTube, Vimeo, Instagram, Soundcloud, and Vine would be the ones which would be the most popular. After researching several scripts out there which a media based sharing scripts (I own a few), the aforementioned seem the most popular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfarber Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 You can upload media to Gallery, but there is no transcoding functionality or anything like that (unless you develop an addon for this). You cannot link to external media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bfarber Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Yes, but keep in mind browser restrictions with supported video file types. Few video formats are universally supported by all browsers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluto Posted November 20, 2014 Author Share Posted November 20, 2014 Thanks for the info. It would be great if embedded video was added to gallery in IPB4 - at least to display YouTube videos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bfarber Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 1) Not yet, I'm afraid2) More or less - there aren't likely to be any major new features before release, but we are still tweaking many areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
