Fun with PHPMotion!

I’ve had a lot of fun, in a good way, this week, working with PHPMotion, a media sharing CMS.  It’s been bit tricky installing oall the necessary encoders but by no means impossible.  There is also extensive support on their forums.  If there is need for media distribution at your end this will more than fill the gap.  You can get a full feature list here.  I like that everything is stored in MySQL as I can customise a different version for different platforms, ie: mobile phones, PDA’s as well as games consoles like the PS3 or the Wii.

PHPMotion is ideal for working with a number of WordPress themes, specifically “On Demand” from Press 75.  I like this because I can prevent users from leaving comments on videos.  You might think that’s a little counter intuitive in a Web 2.0 world, but orders have come down from above that this feature is not to be enabled. To be fair I can understand, we are not the most beloved organisation in Ireland!

We hope to launch this service within the next month.
