[plumi-discuss] Burnstation alpha and installation instructions

[Mike Muzurakis]

Hello everyone,

the burnstation alpha is tagged and ready to be tested by more people.
It's tested and works with plone 3.3 and plone 4.

You can install the standalone burnstation prototype by running the
buildout(it requires python2.6) with: 
svn co
https://svn.plone.org/svn/collective/collective.transcode.star/tags/burnstation-alpha/ burnstation

$ cd burnstation
$ python2.6 bootstrap.py
$ ./bin/buildout

Wait for buildout to end, and start up zope with ./bin instance start
and the transcode daemon with ./bin/transcodedaemon start

Install the burnstation product, and upload a video file as a new File
in your plone instance to test it.

Alternatively if you want to test burnstation on top of an existing
plumi installation,
you can add the burnstation source
(https://svn.plone.org/svn/collective/collective.transcode.burnstation/tags/alpha/) to your buildout egg sources.
You will need to grab the transcodeMpeg2 and makeIso scripts from the
collecctive.transcode.star egg and put it in the /scripts folder.

or you can run the plumi-burnstation buildout for a new
plumi-burnstation instance:
$ svn co
https://svn.plone.org/svn/collective/plumi.buildout/tags/plumi-burnstation-alpha/ burnstation
$ cd burnstation
$ python2.4 bootstrap.py
$ ./bin/buildout

Start up zope and transcode daemon, install plumi and then install the
burnstation product.

Cheers,
Mike
