Google+ video is available thru Picasaweb

Hello,

I know that you can do photos via serviio directly without a plugin.

However, I use my google+ account which in turn is available through picasaweb to store videoclips.

The same sort of feed is used for a "video album" as one photo one, but the difference is the RSS feed seems to contain a lot more data and seems to include a thumbnail as well as a videoplayback file for each item.

I know I can't be the only one who uses g+/picasaweb to house videos... especially since you can store up to 15 minute clips that don't count against your quota.

Anyway, can someone please look into a plugin for Picasweb VIDEO not photos. The feed is there with video files and everything, just not very good at knowing how to create the plugin to sift through it/parse it.

thanks.

OH sorry... so see the above RSS feed as an example... I just threw 3 old videos in a folder so that someone can see the output.

Again this is VIDEO not photos even though it says kind=photo when you look at the feed output you will see the videoplayback attachments in there.

And now it's been another 4 months or so... 9 months outstanding...

Google has even upped/rolled together services now (or they are moving in that direction) -- making using this space more ideal as a video storage space.

Unless this plugin for picasaweb/g+ video is actually already created and I just am misinformed?

:?:

Ok... soo.... nobody?
lol

Ok... I'm willing to pony up $25 bucks to someone to make a plugin for picasaweb/google+ video. (paypal)
I can't be the only one who sees the usefulness of this, especially now the way google+ is expanding.

Hi @mayhex

Check this one http://forum.serviio.org/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=13428
Currently it works only for photo albums, but I will check if it also possible to add video support in next version.

Nice, I am following the other thread now too... hope you can get video working through google+ albums as well that would make my day.
