For some time I've been on-and-off working on a Getid3 module for gallery2, see http://getid3.sourceforge.net/. I don't seem to be the only one with the incorrectly sorted movies/videos, see http://gallery.menalto.com/node/32846. So I recently implemented originationDatestamp for the AVIs my camera makes, and it works.

However, date/time is a string field, and I've seem more than one format. That being said, I would like a large set of sample data. The quicktime mov files that my old camera created has a time zone offset issue. The apple mac date stamp is embedded in the video, getid3 converts it to unix date stamp format, but I currently have a time zone offset issue.

I would like to have one video/movie from as many different cameras as possible. To save space, make the video as small as possible. Go ahead and attach them here. Please include the time the video was taken, or a range between times.

Thanks,
-DonW

@all:
if possible, please don't attach the files here, just post a link. if you can't host the file yourself for a few hours, go on and attach it here.

@donwillingham
excellent :)

maybe better attach the module here (and just as .zip and not zip-txt!) and not in the other forum thread. also, don't forget to add your module to codex.gallery2.org -> user contributions :)
maybe you can add more mimetypes than video/ms-... ;) j/k, i know you'll add it as soon as it makes sense :)

I don't seem to have permission to edit that. I get an "Login required to edit" when attempting to edit the modules section.

Yes, but I'm lacking in the free time to dedicate to gallery department. Once upon a time, I was fairly active in G1. I have CVS commit access, but haven't used it in a while.

I don't know how to have it not append the .txt, I don't know how to change that. I'll post a comment in the other thread pointing to this thread.

Thank you for this module. Great work!
Is there a version available for Gallery 2.1 (CVS)?

this module will be part of the official G2.1 package and it will be in the nightly snapshots in a few days.

Hi all,

Who is maintaining this module now? Although the version used by Gallery now is 1.7.7, the newest one is 1.7.8b3 or 2.0.0b4. 1.7.7 can't work in Japanese(UTF-8/Shift_JIS/etc..) id3tag(v2), but it seems to work well in 2.0.0b4 without problem.

P.S.
Japanese is not displayed with G2mp3.swf about the problem of the mp3audio module except this one.

Thanks,
momo-i.

I did most of the original work integrating getid3 into G2. Lately, I have been too busy to contribute to gallery. Upgrading to getid3 version 2.0.0b4 is not trivial, and would require raising the minimum requirement for gallery to 5. See http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery2:PHP_Version and http://getid3.sourceforge.net/. Upgrading to 2.0.0b4 is currently unreasonable, however, upgrading to 1.7.8b3 can be done. Maybe the bug fixes introduced after 1.7.7 should be merged first; later newer file formats could be supported.
