Video Solution Pack (Beta)
A beta version of the new Video Solution Pack is being released with Islandora 12.1.0. This solution pack will ingest a video file, convert it to MKV (archival format), MP4 and OGG (derivative formats). The video will be displayed using the JW Player in either MP4 or OGG format (depending on the browser being used).
Collection Manager
The Collection Manager now includes the following features:
- Migrate Members: This new fieldset allows you to select any or all members of the current collection and migrate them to another existing collection in the repository.
- Delete Members of This Collection: You can now delete any or all members of the current collection by selecting them from a list.
Harvester
The Harvester module has been improved to allow more flexibility in labeling column headers. In the previous version, column headers needed to map directly to DC metadata (e.g. dc:title, dc:subject, etc.). The new version of the Harvester will accept the following header formats (using dc.title as an example):
Capitalization will also be ignored.
Solr
The Solr module now includes the following features:
- Wildcard Searching: You can now use a wildcard ( * ) when conducting Solr searches.
Technical Metadata
Technical metadata for basic and large images is now being extracted via EXIFTool. This metadata can be found in the list of Datastreams under Detailed List of Content.
Book Module
The Book Solution Pack is undergoing a major upgrade, including a new viewer and additional management functionality. This new version will be released as a separate download in a few weeks. It will be fully documented at that time.
Downloads
Downloads will be available once Islandora 12.1.0 is released.
