Subject: [CODE4LIB] Media Viewer
We're looking into options for displaying digitized archival content and I'd
like to include a viewer in the option list. I've seen these other places and
thought there might be something to crib from online somewhere, but can't find
one. Perhaps they're all homegrown.
What I'm looking for is some sort of viewer that I can pass a file name and
path to, that loads in image gallery if their images, loads a HTML5 w/flash
fallback video player for videos, loads an audio player for audio, and maybe
even a PDF viewer.
Is there anything out there like this, perhaps not out of the box, but close
to? I'm not looking for modal boxes, like Shadowbox, as that's already on the
options list. Oh, and we do not yet have and are not ready for a digital asset
manager/repository.
Many thanks,
Nathan
