One more update... In the add annotatio or tag box, I do not see the video time slider on the top of the edit box. I believe there is something wrong with my mvembed, perhaps I need another version? Using firebug, I compared the mv_embed.js in the openmeetings done section and it seems that this and my version are different. Can you plz suggest what could be wrong? Regards Ioannis

Hi, Following George's comments, I have worked a bit during the weekend on my installation.
With the following configuration in apache2.conf I avoided using the relevant rewrite rules in .htaccess and all seems to work fine <IfModule mod_actions.c> ScriptAlias /oggz-chop /usr/bin/oggz-chop.cgi Action application/ogg /oggz-chop.cgi Action video/ogg /oggz-chop.cgi Action audio/ogg /oggz-chop.cgi Action application/ogv /oggz-chop.cgi Action video/ogv /oggz-chop.cgi Action audio/ogv /oggz-chop.cgi </IfModule>
I also created two new pages in mediawiki to cater for the relevant input fields when tagging/annotating a video. Property:Bill & Property:Speech By
With the above modifications, I can add new videos and then edit them by adding tags/annotations and transcripts. A few more questions : A) I add a new video from special pages -> metavid add stream I edit the stream and add the video file, also typing in its length, i.e. 0:10:00 However the video (and all videos imported) show a time length of 0:20:00. Any suggestions on how to make the video pages show the actual video length?
B) It seems that I am not able to create a Sequence. From the demo video of metavid, It seems that by using a Sequence:ABCD you can create a sequence where videos can be edited in the timeline. How can I enable this?
C) In the new transcript part of editing, there seems to be an image of the person making the speech. In my case its always the missing person.jpg. How can I add my custom picture?
I do have more questions, but I thinks the above are quite enough for now :)
Best Regards Ioannis
