Agenda & Notes
Any other items for the agenda?
Demo of Avalon IIIF Player - Jon Cameron
Began development in 2018; moved to Samvera Labs, community sprint in 2020
Goals: Avalon team looking for alternative to current MediaElement-based player, moving to Video.js; having a player that could be used by others in the community, not just those using Avalon
For technical overview, see Dananji Withana’s presentation from Samvera Connect 2020
Avalon 7 has IIIF Presentation 3.0 manifest endpoint and uses IIIF for integration with the Audio Timeliner, but doesn’t use IIIF player internally for the Avalon player
Avalon on Hyrax plans to always use IIIF for media playback
1.1 Release (May 2021) - code is in Samvera Labs (https://github.com/samvera-labs/iiif-react-media-player), also under Samvera namespace in NPM (https://www.npmjs.com/package/@samvera/iiif-react-media-player )
Demo: https://samvera-labs.github.io/iiif-react-media-player/Support for transcripts, both time-synced (via IIIF annotations) and documents, e.g. text or MS Word
Table of contents-based structural navigation (using IIIF ranges)
Using IIIF manifesto gem to parse IIIF manifest
1.2 release coming out soon, adding hotkey support, transcripts, CSS bundling fix (all currently in main branch)
Next steps: add transcript component to Avalon 7.3; more features (playlists, embedability, further transcript work); getting feedback from early adopters; branding work; potential support for use outside of IIIF contextsUpdates:
