Bug #: 41744
Summary: load video via http for thumb extraction
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: master
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: TimedMediaHandler
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
Creating thumbnails from videos on backends without POSIX access is expensive
since a local copy of the video has to be created in /tmp first.
TMH should create thumbs from the public http url and seek using http range
requests instead.
avconv supports http so that part should be possible.
One open question is if the public url is the best one or if we can use a swift
url instead.
