Alfresco Media Management allows you to view
and manipulate your digital assets in Alfresco.
Alfresco features provided with
Media Management include video support
and enhanced image manipulation; for example, video thumbnails and proxies, video trim,
time-coded comments for video, and image crop and rotate capabilities. A dark site theme is
also available.
You can embed metadata into a file using rules, with the
Embed properties as
metadata in content action, and view metadata in
Alfresco and in an image editor. See
Working with metadata for more information about extracting and embedding
metadata.
Important: Video transformations are very resource intensive and can
take a long time to complete. Make sure that any rules that you create that use video
transcoding run in the background, to prevent the rule from failing due to an Alfresco
timeout. For more information about creating rules, see
Creating a rule.
Media Management is integrated with
Brightcove and AWS CloudFront publishing channels for publishing your content.
