If you dont trust the admins, then the encryption app is not catering to
your use case. Do you host your storage externally like on amazon s3
using the files_external app? If not encryption is useless and you could
simply convert the existing file.

Hi Ryan and Sean,
this is pretty cool idea!
As I started at AIP(Astrphysical Institute Potsdam) LatexCompilier and
Editor project a lot of people were asking on movie and image
convertor. Most of the requests are coming based on incompatibility
between Mac and Win codecs.
Currently I am using home brewed scripts to convert files but it is
not integrated in to OC.
LatexCompilier is not handling encrypted OC.
If you disable encryption app on OC then you have on the server normal
files so you can convert them in the backend as you want.
If encryption is essential for your environment(you dont trust admins
or you host in the remove cloud) then you should always decrypt file
on the server using users keys convert then encrypt them back. For
this things better maybe to use OC API function.
I am not familiar with encryption api, maybe some one can comment on it.
In any case this app will be great addition in to OC.
Greetings from Potsdam,
Arman.

Just an addendum here: Sean and I are working on this app this summer and
will publish it in the ownCloud Apps directory upon completion.
Northwestern University's School of Education's faculty work with a lot of
video for analysis and we have found that ownCloud handles video files far
better than other solutions like Box.com. The purpose of our project is to
extend ownCloud's functionality so that people can transcode their various
video files into a standardized format, in our case m4v. If anyone is
interested in helping out, please let us know.
Thanks,
Ryan

Hi,
I'm creating a plugin for Northwestern University's School of Education
and Social Policy that uses ffmpeg to convert video files to a professor's
preferred format.
Now, to my understanding, ownCloud encrypts files at rest. Will this
interfere with the conversion and, if so, is there a way to circumvent this?
Thanks,
Sean
