This post was accurate at the time of writing, whereas the documentation page will be kept up to date with any future changes.</em></p> <p>This week I released the first version of the Nomensa Accessible Media Player module for Drupal 7. Here's some instructions of how to install and configure it.</p> <h2 id="initial-configuration">Initial configuration</h2> <h3 id="download-the-library">Download the Library</h3> <p>The library can be downloaded directly from GitHub, and should be placed within you <em>sites/all/libraries/nomensa_amp</em> directory.</p> <pre><code class="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 </code></pre> <h3 id="configure-the-module">Configure the Module</h3> <p>Configure the module at <em>admin/config/media/nomensa-amp</em> and enable the players that you want to use.</p> <h2 id="adding-videos">Adding videos</h2> <p>Within your content add links to your videos. For example:</p> <h3 id="youtube">YouTube</h3> <pre><code class="language-html"><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zi31YMGmQC4">Checking colour contrast</a> </code></pre> <h3 id="vimeo">Vimeo</h3> <pre><code class="language-html"><a href="http://vimeo.com/33729937">Screen readers are strange, when you're a stranger by Leonie Watson</a> </code></pre> <h2 id="adding-captions">Adding captions</h2> <p>The best way that I can suggest to do this is to use a File field to upload your captions file:</p> <ol> <li>Add a File field to your content type;</li> <li>On your page upload the captions file.</li> <li>Right-click the uploaded file, copy the link location, and use this for the path to your captions file.</li> </ol> <p>For example:</p> <pre><code class="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> </code></pre> <h2 id="screencast">Screencast</h2> <div class="embed-container"> <iframe src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/45731954" width="500" height="313" frameborder="0" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen> </iframe> </div> <p class="tags"> Tags: <a href="https://www.oliverdavies.uk/blog/tags/accessibility">accessibility</a>, <a href="https://www.oliverdavies.uk/blog/tags/drupal">drupal</a>, <a href="https://www.oliverdavies.uk/blog/tags/drupal-planet">drupal-planet</a>, <a href="https://www.oliverdavies.uk/blog/tags/nomensa">nomensa</a> </p> <div class="post-pager is-flex"> <div class="is-half"> <a href="/blog/2012/07/12/my-new-drupal-modules"> « My new Drupal modules </a> </div> <div class="is-half text-right"> <a href="/blog/2012/07/27/writing-article-linux-journal"> Writing an Article for Linux Journal » </a> </div> </div> <div class="about-author"> <h2>About the Author</h2> <img src="//www.oliverdavies.uk/assets/images/me-precedent.jpg" alt="Picture of Oliver" class="img-circle"> <p>Oliver Davies is a Web Developer, System Administrator and Drupal specialist based in the UK.
