Version history for PackFlash Video Module
- Indicates PackFlash Exclusive Feature

Version 3.0

  • Integration with Constellation 3.0.  
  • Implements DNN 6.0 look and feel where possible on administrative screens.
  • Video Module now benefits from standard functionality of all Constellation modules. LOTS of additional functionality added including workflow, grouping, list enhancements, search, navigation, etc.
  • Default video display can now be dynamic rather than only by choosing the specific video to display.
  • Video data criteria will take dynamic variables such as query key into account.  This allows the site to display a video player on a category or author landing page and show the most recent video for that category or author, for instance.  It would also provide the ability to place on a blog post and show the video associated with the blog post.
  • Added ability to filter parent category for Category Browser.  This allows the module to be as specific as necessary for the page.
  • Added "Video Duration" so that it can be added to templates and displayed in lists.

Version 2.1

  • Administrators can choose to convert videos to multiple quality options - 480p, 720p, and 1080p - or any combination. 1080p will convert the videos to the highest quality video based on the source video provided. All users will be shown the lowest quality video for performance/bandwidth/compatibility purposes, but they will have links to view higher quality videos at their choosing. This allows the site to provide mobile video support, but not have to sacrifice quality for desktop users.
  • Administrators can provide a URL of a video from an external source or streaming server
  • Administrators can choose a video on the web server and have it be converted.
  • Background color of main video player can be chosen.

Version 2.0

  • Module detects if the device is an Apple device without Flash support. If an Apple device is detected, then the module will deliver the video via an MP4 file within an HTML5 video tag.
  • The module will convert a wide variety of video file formats (list below) to a common MP4 video format that can be played by legacy iPhone and iPad devices (this may mean a loss of quality in the conversion process due to older iPhone capabilities)
  • Multiple install versions are available that allow the site administrator to save time and preserve quality by doing their own video file conversion (so the video file conversion does not occur on the web server)
  • Improved handling of hosting-related issues, such as file size problems, timeouts due to conversions or uploads, and file formats not supported (MIME types not included in by the hosting provider)
  • Added Amazon S3 integration

Version 1.0

  • New version of the Product
