Project Description

Project resources

NOTE: ATAudio development will be continued with the **Plone4ArtistsAudio product, and migrations will be made available soon.**

  • MP3 files are stored on file system. The files are not saved in the ZODB, to prevent database bloat and exposes the files to 3rd party streaming software. Depends on ExternalStorage product in collective.
  • WebDAV support. Easy drag-n-drop uploading of MP3 files to your Plone site.
  • ID3 tag extraction. When you upload an MP3 file via WebDAV, the metadata (artist, album, year, etc.) is extracted and auto-populates the fields on the Plone form.
  • ID3 tag writing. When you edit the ID3 metadata in Plone and save the item, the metadata is written back to the MP3 on the file system.
  • Embedded Flash MP3 player lets you play the audio tracks right from within the Plone page, or in a popup window. Advanced player lets you jump up and down through a track listing.
  • Limit file size of the uploaded MP3 files.
  • Streaming via Zope using the file iterator support in Zope 2.7.2. Or streaming via 3rd party software (Apache, Edna, Darwin Streaming Server, Icecast, etc.)
  • ATAudioFolder is a container for audio files which displays a track listing and a CD cover image.
  • Recordings is a container for CDs (ATAudioFolder) which displays a listing of CDs with thumbnails images of the CD covers.
  • Podcasting (MP3 enclosures in RSS 2.0) thanks to QuintaGroup's qRSS2Syndication and Salim Fadhley's Plodcasting products.
