Here's some instructions of how to install and configure it. _The official documentation for this module is now located at <https://www.drupal.org/node/2383447>. This post was accurate at the time of writing, whereas the documentation page will be kept up to date with any future changes._ ## Initial configuration ### Download the Library The library can be downloaded directly from GitHub, and should be placed within you _sites/all/libraries/nomensa_amp_ directory. ```language-bash drush dl libraries nomensa_amp git clone https://github.com/nomensa/Accessible-Media-Player sites/all/libraries/nomensa_amp cd sites/all/libraries/nomensa_amp rm -rf Accessible-media-player_2.0_documentation.pdf example/ README.md drush en -y nomensa_amp ``` ### Configure the Module Configure the module at <em>admin/config/media/nomensa-amp</em> and enable the players that you want to use. ## Adding videos Within your content add links to your videos. For example: ### YouTube ```language-html <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zi31YMGmQC4">Checking colour contrast</a> ``` ### Vimeo ```language-html <a href="http://vimeo.com/33729937">Screen readers are strange, when you're a stranger by Leonie Watson</a> ``` ## Adding captions The best way that I can suggest to do this is to use a File field to upload your captions file: 1. Add a File field to your content type; 1. On your page upload the captions file. 1. Right-click the uploaded file, copy the link location, and use this for the path to your captions file. For example: ```language-html <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zi31YMGmQC4">Checking colour contrast</a> <a class="captions" href="http://oliverdavies.co.uk/sites/default/files/checking-colour-contrast-captions.xml">Captions for Checking Colour Contrast</a> ``` ## Screencast <div class="embed-container"> <iframe src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/45731954" width="500" height="313" frameborder="0" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen> </iframe> </div>
