Release Notes

See the Plone4ArtistsAudio screencast for a overview of the product's features.

Plone4ArtistsAudio is a Plone product built to expose the p4a.audio framework in a Plone setting. In a nutshell it provides the following features:

File support

Uploaded File objects are scanned for audio mime types and are audio enhanced automatically if a registered mime type is found.

Audio container support

Any folder or smart folder can be media activated which turns it into an audio container which knows how to display an overview for all contained audio.

Embedded media player support

MP3 and Ogg audio files can be played inline within the browser.

Audio metadata support

Audio information is read from and written to MP3 and Ogg audio files.

Podcasting support

Audio containers (activated folders or smart folders) can have their contents broadcast using RSS with enclosures representing the individual audio files.

External filesystem storage support

By default all audio content is stored directly within the ZODB, but by using the BlobFile product all audio content can be stored automatically outside the ZODB on the filesystem.

Feature enhancements in this release

The following features are associated with this release:

#2: Store the audio files on the file system

Store the files on the file system so that they don't bloat the ZODB and are exposed to third-party streaming software.

#4: Syndicate audio files as podcast feed

Provide an RSS 2.0 and Atom feed with enclosure of the audio files.
