Hi Xavier,
and a very big THANK YOU for your reply! We'll give your detailed
instructions a try.
I wonder if this "move a video from a series to another"-feature is
something coming in MH 1.4? I took a look at one of the MH 1.4 RC
-installations I found some time back and there was this mediapackage
editor UI, which I guess is from you/Entwine? Is it going to be bundled
somehow in MH 1.4 and does it carry along the aforementioned
moving-a-series feature? If not, is the enhanced mediapackage editor
freely available somewhere or do you sell it to institutions?
Yours, Olli

Hi Olli,
With MH 1.3.1, I think there is no easy way to move a video from a
series to another.
This tasks could only be realised through different steps:
1. Get the media package (through workflow endpoint for example).
2. Remove the mediapackage from the search and episode service.
3. Create a new dublincore catalog with the old one from the media
package and modified the field related to the
series (field dcterms:isPartOf).
4. Use the ingest REST endpoint to add the modified dublin-core to
the media package (method ingest/addCatalog).
5. Ingest the media package with a workflow having the publish operation.
It was the manual way for this task. But it could also be done using
the media package editor in the episode service. It needs a mediapackage
that has still all these files in the working file repository (that
hasn't been process through a cleanup operation).
In the future, I think It would also make sense to create a workflow
operation to simplify moving video between series.
Best,
Xavier

Dear fellow Matterhorn climbers!
I have been struggling to find a way to move a published video with no
series to an existing series in MH 1.3.1. I've been searching for a
suitable REST for this task but so far but I've been unsuccessful
finding a way to do this at all. I've read thru the Search, Episode,
Series etc REST docs etc but I just can't figure our if my approach is
right or faulty. Should I try to move a video from a no-series state
to a certain series by altering the dcIsPartof-metadata in Episode
REST - or should I use the Search / Series REST somehow? This is
beyond my understanding so if anyone of you knows the solution to
this, your help is highly appreciated!
Yours, Olli S.
