Show and Share API : Uploading a video to a particular user group

Hi,
I am trying to find a API spec for uplaoading a vide in Show and Share portal for a specific user group. But could not find such thing as usergroup, but just the Content Viewership is available where we need to input all the ____USERNAME____ to upload with access to the users rather than a user group.
I would like to know if anyone can direct me to upload to specific usergroup rather than user.
Thanks in Advnace,
JK

Jeffrey,
What is the content format of the ORIGINAL source comment?
- download MEDIAINFO video analysis program from the web.
http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/en
- After installed, file->open-> pick your source file with issue.
- change the view to TEXT and copy\paste the results into a
TEXT file and upload here.
From the MXE, highlight the SnS-MXE job and right click and
open the JOB XML. Same thing save the XML code in a text
file and upload here
Sidenote: did you download the DMSprofile.zip file from the web
and install the DMS profiles in the profile directory?
Thanks
T.

Show and Share block... video

I have a few users that report they cannot upload videos and on the screen for doing the upload they show a tab in the right hand corner that says Block...
I have not been able to duplicate this. Anyone know what this is? It appears to be a Cisco tab, not IE.

Hello,
You can only edit .flv or .mp4 files within the Show & Share interface.
The .wmv (windows media) files need to be edited or previewed externally.
Make sure that your streaming server is running for the Show and Share.
You can check this in the SERVICES tab of the Admin Module of the DMM.
The Streaming server must be running to enable the editing feature for the
Flash & mpeg4 files.
I hope this helps!

External file hosting for Show and Share

Hi,
If I only use FTP server (no external streaming server) for external file hosting, can show and share still play the video? Is there any other limitation beside video editing with this scenario?
Thanks.

Hi
1- If your upload your files locally on your SNS , SNS will be the origin server and will be responsible for "RTMP and HTTP". For External hosting files which is highly recommended by Cisco , you have to use external streaming server and Wowza server or Adobe flash server and this will allow all videos .flv , MP4 , WMV,,etc displayed and without streamin server the videos won't be displayed. I hope to take a look for the below :-

Cisco Show and Share – Last update?

Hi,
We’re currently using Cisco Show and Share as our internal video platform.
I believe there hasn’t been any form of update to the platform in more than 2 years and am wondering if we have missed something.
At the bottom of our interface we have the following text:
Show and Share and the Digital Media Manager are part of the Cisco Digital Media Suite.
© 2002-2011, Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Warranty and End-User License Agreement
Does the 2011 date refer to our last update? This seems quite old if it does.
Any insight would be appreciated.
Regards,
Callan

Hi Callan:
That depends on the application(s) you're running, releases past 5.3.10 are supported only on a Cisco MXA UCS M3 server.
There is some info about that at http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/conferencing/show-share/datasheet_c78-711706.html
Then there is also the following document covering 5.3.10:
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/video/digital_media_systems/5_x/5_3/showandshare/upgrade/hardware/SNS_5-3-10_Rel_Notes.html
Systems that can be migrated to a Cisco MXA UCS M3 server for SnS are:
UCS 210-M2, UCS 200-M2, MCS 7835-H3, WAVE-574.
Systems that can be migrated to a Cisco MXA UCS M3 server for DMM are:
UCS 210-M2, and MCS 7835-H3.
If you are running on another hardware platform (7835-H3 or UCS210, very likely because of the version you are on) then the following upgrade and/or hotfix information will still be of interest to you and you may have a path to 5.3 depending on what you're working with. A critical hotfix may apply to your system, and the following document guides you in the form of "if you are running _____, then do ________."
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/video/digital_media_systems/5_x/5_2/dms/release/notes/dms52rn.html#wp266747
5.3.7 still supports some older platforms, check this to see if your system is among them:
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/video/digital_media_systems/5_x/5_3/showandshare/upgrade/sns537rn.html#wp301513

Presenter View During Live Events In Show and Share

Hi,
I am a bit confused about the user authorisation during live events of Show and Share. There is a user who is creating the event and publishing it. I think this user should be the moderator. He can see the questions tab and check the questions coming from the other participants and send them to the presenter view tab.
I have found some information about the moderator and presenter in the user guide for show and share but I could not find out which user can be a presenter, or are the presenter and the moderator the same user or not.
Below is from user guide:
The live event moderator pre-screens these incoming questions and comments as they arrive. Moderators can:
• Move any high-priority questions to the Presenter’s View tab. • Move any low-priority questions to the Removed Questions tab, either manually or automatically by keyword. • Use keyword filters to see and manage only the messages that match those keywords.
. The presenter then responds to any number of these pre-screened questions and comments. (These are messages that the moderator moved to the Presenter’s View tab.)
From the above information, it seems that there are seperate presenter and moderator, but is there a way to assign a user other than moderator only the presenter rights?

Great question, Ken! I too would like to know if there is a way to transfer video content management to an other author. In the case that a user publishes content and later leaves the company, retaining control of the published material is a requirement.

Uploading YouTube videos/urls into Cisco Show and Share

We've just purchased the DMM 5.2 and the Show and Share appliance to host internal company videos but there are some YouTube videos out there that we want to pull into our Show and Share system as well. How can we do this? I've tried every possible combination of youtube url and embedded url that is out there, at least nothing that I've tried has worked thus far. I'm able to pull in other internal URLs of different videos (wmv format) without any trouble. Is this an issue with YouTube or perhaps with flv formatted video that YouTube uses (which should work according to the manual).
I know this is a new product, but is there anyone that can help?
Thank you in advance,
Chris

Chris,
The YouTube videos are typically Flash content.
The key here is that you need to download the Flash content
yourself and then Upload to the Show and Share.
Use the DIRECT URL of the Flash Content on YouTube to download
the FLV to you Personal device. After file successfully download, simply
upload the file to Show and Share.
For example:
Cisco Show and Share Flash Demo
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZzquCVvS0qQ
* this link is the actual Dashboard URL not the video link
http://v4.lscache8.c.youtube.com/videoplayback?ip=0.0.0.0&sparams=id%2Cexpire%2Cip%2Cipbits%2Citag%2Calgorithm%2Cburst%2Cfactor%2Coc%3AU0dWRlRRVF9FSkNNNl9MS1hB&fexp=904405%2C901902&algorithm=throttle-factor&itag=34&ipbits=0&burst=40&sver=3&expire=1271466000&key=yt1&signature=1E65C92607546EA03DE0D1082884574D3F58AD0F.93FF9FDB00B10B44BBB52F31AADF3EB50FCEB7CC&factor=1.25&id=673aae095bd2d2a4&
* Actual URL of Video Content
========================================================
FOR THOSE THAT ARE USING OSX & SAFARI:
======================================
If you need to download FLASH Content for TESTING in your DMS Solution, You
can download Flash Videos from YouTube.
Note: The Video Quality is NOT HD or even SD... it is ID (Internet Definition)
      Also, the downloaded file will be a .flv Flash File.
1. Open a Video on YouTube, Google Video etc.
2. Press "Alt+Cmd(Apple-Key)+A" - A window opens named "Activity".
3. Select the ".flv" file (looking on filesize helps) and press "Cmd(Apple-Key)+C" to copy.
   Paste with "Cmd(Apple-Key)+V" the URL to your Adress Bar and press Enter.
4. If you need a different video format such as MPEG, WMV, or SWF; you will need to convert
   the downloaded ".flv" file with VisualHub or VLC
If this answers your question, Please take time to mark this

Show and Share: Upload video with link URL

Hi all,
Is it use to add the video that is in external server? Can you give me an example for upload video in SnS with link URL? My system has Wowza streaming server.
Thank you.
Bintasan Mokkamakkul

Basically, when you want to add\upload a video to Show and Share you can simpy:
1. Upload the file itself
2. Use a URL link of where the video content is located. This is typically a WEB Server url.
such as:
http://webserver.company.com/videos/movietrailer.flv

Show and Share: How to add thumbnail for uploaded by URL

Hi all,
I upload video by URL in Show and Share. Can I manually add thumbnail for video? and how to?
Thank you very much.
Bintasan Mokkamakkul

As per docs, the default behavior for show and share is to assign a
thumbnail based on the length of the video:
Check out:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/video/digital_media_systems/5_x/5_3/showandshare/user/guide/edit-delete.html#wp1079137
TABLE: Please match the # for each section:
If your video is ...
1. less than 3 seconds long
2. Between 3 and 8 seconds long
3. 8 seconds or longer
It uses this frame for the thumbnail...
1. 0 seconds
2. 4 seconds
3. 8 seconds
If you have a video that is longer than 8 seconds, but the title shot only lasts for 5 seconds, the automatically generated thumbnail may not contain your video title. Or, if you recorded a message, the system may have captured an unflattering facial expression for the thumbnail. Use this procedure to correct the situation.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/video/digital_media_systems/5_x/5_3/showandshare/user/guide/edit-delete.html#wp1079137
The procedure to modify the thumbnail is listed in the link above. You
need to go to your uploaded videos and click "Edit Video" then follow
the instructions above to move the slider where you want the thumbnail
to be.
Please keep in mind that video editing is only possible for some video
formats:
Table 6-1 Video Format Editing Support
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/video/digital_media_systems/5_x/5_3/showandshare/user/guide/edit-delete.html#wp1080725
I hope this helps!

Show and Share "Record a video" change bit rate?

In Show and Share's user guide it states that when using the "Record a video" in SnS it defaults to 400bit rate at 320x240. Is there a way to change this?

Hello Tom
1- Yes this is could be from license issue.Can you check the license for your Cisco SNS?.
2- Can you also restart services of Cisco show and share "streaming server" from Cisco DMM as attached.
3-Can you check the pairing is ok.
4-Did you have MXE integration , after uploading the video , what is the status of job "completed or failes".
Note:I got same problem before when i changed my FQDN from name to other but i fixed .

Show and Share edit video and previews?

Hi I am trying to add previews to all my published videos all the videos I have so far are .wmv and I realized SnS does not allow me to modify anything. But when I try to modify a video recorded from my webcam (.flv) it does allow modifactions and previws eventhough I can't the watch the published video recorded from webcam.
Do these issues have to do with the fact that I have wmv and also flv files? If so, why I can't do to a wmv what I am allowed to do on a flv?
Thanks!

An addiitional note: I can upload a video just fine.
Thanks for the help Tom!

Can't set File Hosting Locations on Show and Share

Hi,
I'm currently using Show and Share 5.2. I have it peered with the DMM and everything for the most part seems to be working fine. The problem that I'm having is that I can't seem to set and save the File Hosting Locations. I set it to store locally and it shows a valid password, but it will not save the setings. I've tried this in multiple browser: the latest firefox and IE. Any ideas?

Are you using the Actual Appliances or are you testing with VMware images?
Please gather and upload the following screenshots:
* Go to the AAI interfaces for BOTH the DMM & the SnS. Please provide a screen capture
of the Pairing status screens for each appliance.
* Go to the DMM --> Admin Module and get a screenshot of the services for the DMM & the SnS.
Is there any error when trying to save settings? Please provide the screen shot
of that..
Thanks
T.
