I am trying to build a site in Drupal 6 which has two main content types:
Music Album (with uploaded audio mp3s of every track, displayed in a single Flash player)
Music Video (with uploaded video displayed in a Flash player)
I'd like to do this using Media Mover and related modules. So far, I've had no success whatsoever probably due to one simple reason: There's no documentation. Some of the contributed modules have some stubs, but nothing substantial. Other modules, like FLV Media Player, don't have any documentation at all.
I know Media Mover can be used for a wide variety of things, but there doesn't seem to be enough information available to piece together how to do some very specific things, like the examples I mentioned above.
I'd love to see a couple walkthrough tutorials/wikis on exactly how to set up Media Mover from the ground up, what modules to enable, what related files to download, where to get them, where to install them, what settings to enable in other modules, and how to attach files to a node, have those attached files get picked up as an XSPF playlist, and displayed in the node via an FLV player. And like many people, I'd love to see it demonstrated on a shared host (i.e. not 'localhost'), and using regular directory storage of the very few songs and videos I have (i.e. not using Amazon's S3 service).
I'd feel bad if I had to submit a bunch of issues/support requests to the project maintainers. I wouldn't have to if everything was just clearly documented somewhere. I've found the video of "DruTube", a Media Mover demonstration and even the crib notes from that very presentation, but not any detailed step-by-step written documentation on how to do this sort of thing... certainly not much on drupal.org.
If I had any idea how to perform the operations intended, I'd gladly write this sort of tutorial myself. Until then, I need some advice from someone with more experience. Would somebody with better luck than me like to take a stab at this?
