About ZHdK MAdeK Player

ATTENTION: This extension only works with the old version of MAdeK (v2) and not with the current (v3). This extension won't get updated for v3!

Introduction

The ZHdK MAdeK Player is a Typo3 extension which enables Typo3 users to display a gallery with images from a user-defined MAdeK server. This plugin is designed to be a simple client to a MAdeK server and doesn't let the user overrule any data from MAdeK (e.g. you can't overwrite metadata or define an order).

Use

Different MAdeK server
If you want to use a different MAdeK server than medienarchiv.zhdk.ch you must define it in the extension configuration.

Show a gallery
Insert the "ZHdK MAdeK Player" as a plugin on a normal page and select a MAdeK set with the "MAdeK Set Picker". Done.

Limitations

• the MAdeK Player won't be compatible with MAdeK's v3 API
• it doesn't display videos or pdfs
• it can only handle public sets and files

About MAdeK

MAdeK is short for 'Medienarchiv der Künste', a project at the Zürich University of the Arts.

The goal is to release a media archival, management and sharing system that can archive video, audio and image files along with their metadata. The system crowdsources the chore of retrieving and assigning metadata to the users themselves instead of putting all the burden on the archival expert.

MAdeK is also on Github
