I want one. LazyWeb: hack this to work with S3 and Drupal and I'm in . This would be a great hack for BarCamp Vancouver.

Have you ever wanted to know how you can create your own video hosting site allowing users to upload video, automatically convert it to FLV, and display it for the world to see? A recent post at Daniel's Random Mutterings (DRM - how clever) explains exactly how to do this with open source tools. Using a Djano CMS system, FFMpeg for the FLV encoding, FLVtools2 for writing meta information, and FlowPlayer for embedding the SWF file you'll have everything you need to get started. The code is pretty straight forward and a great starting point. Now go forth and create your new video distribution empire.

MediaCore can do YouTube

by Stuart Bowness (not verified) - 2010-05-07 11:39

Hey, just saw your post on this. Rather than using Django CMS, have you ever seen the MediaCore video CMS? The only thing it doesn't handle that you mentioned here is FFMpeg (and conversion related stuff) but otherwise it may be just what you're looking for. It'll play YouTube, Vimeo, and Google video clips right out of the box, and it's open source.
