Hi all,

just wanted to let you know that labs has a mostly working setup of TMH again. We also pulled in updates form the kaltura branch of the javascript code to get improved fullscreen support and better subtitles.

An example of a video with subtitles is at: http://commons.wikimedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/File:Mandara_Online_-_Upper_E...

labs also has a videoscaler vm now that is setup with the puppet classes we can use in production once the servers are ready. (https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/16654/)

so would be good to have another look at labs now and see if there are things missing to clean up and have another look at our changes in relation to security.

I also updated the script to import Youtube videos (including subtitles) into mediawiki. Above link was imported using it. The script is currently at https://github.com/bit/youtube2mediawiki
