Avalon Forum covering how upgrades occurred at Virginia and recent work on Batch ingest with Indiana University, WGBH and American Archive of Public Broadcasting.
The Avalon team's demo for sprint 102 includes: showing our new waffle.io board, walking through our current design for a playlist marker and demonstrating RuboCop in our development branch
103 focused on:
• Packaging bug release 5.0.1
• Adding new play list features for 5.1, of note is our markers feature
• Fedora 4 research for Avalon 6.0 release.
103’s demo is our new marker feature:
• Markers allow users to add descriptions of moments in time to music tracks and videos within a playlist.
• Key use cases are for finding specific solos or scenes in streaming media.
• Markers can be edited and deleted by users.
The demo for sprint 104 introduces Markers, a new piece of functionality that allows specific time points to be referenced from within Playlists. Also shown in this video is a demonstration of the ability in Avalon 5.1 to import playlists from Variations, as well as a preliminary architecture diagram for running Avalon in the cloud.
Avalon Sprint Demo #115: "Second Scrubber" feature give users an extra view of structural metadata on the track level of an item. "Avalon Wipeout" is a backend script for wiping out data on the server side for developers who need to reset repositories for testing.
Two improvements to Avalon's playlist functionality are introduced: the ability to copy entire playlists and enhanced marker functionality. Marker icons can now be clicked to navigate to their respective time, and marker descriptions now appear upon mousing over a marker icon. Work on upgrading Avalon's media player to MediaElement 4 is also demonstrated, including the ability to change media player versions during development by using a URL query parameter.
The demo for sprint 131 covers recent enhancements to Avalon's playlist features. A users' playlist index is now paginated by default and can be sorted, filtered and searched.
