Configuring MediaMosa

Drupal settings

MediaMosa based on  Drupal 7, and you can administer your Drupal settings on the admin page http://your-site/admin .

Highly recommended to check three subpages here regularly:

• Recent log ertries: http://your-site/admin/reports/dblog
• Status report: http://your-site/admin/reports/status
• MediaMosa status: http://your-site/admin/mediamosa/
• MediaMosa related log entries: http://your-site/admin/mediamosa/browse/log

MediaMosa configuration

You find the configuration of all settings and object within MediaMosa on the page http://your-site/admin/mediamosa/config/ .

If everything is all right with your site (and your cron has run minimum two times), you will see green lines on the status page of your MediaMosa ( http://your-site/admin/mediamosa ). Otherwise you have to configure your site.

• Servers http://your-site/admin/mediamosa/config/server
  • The place is for your upload, streaming, job etc. server settings.
  • You can set the URI and path of your different servers here.
  • In the Streaming servers you can adjust your video object codes (like flash).

• Client applications http://your-site/admin/mediamosa/config/app
