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
