How To: VIMP Search

How To: VIMP Suche

In today’s blogpost we would like to introduce you to the extensive search function of VIMP. Especially with a large number of videos the full text search in your VIMP portal supports you, so that you find your media target-oriented and fast, exactly at the time when you need them. In addition to the basic search there is also an extended search functionality in VIMP, which will be explained in the following for your better understanding.

Basic search

By using the search field mentioned above you can search within your portal for all media and also for registered users. To do this, you must enter certain keywords you want to search for in the title or description of a video in the search bar.. Do you have more specific search criteria for your medium? In this case, you can use very effectively the advanced search field to further narrow down your results by selecting specific characteristics.

Advanced search function

In the advanced search function, you can search by title, description and tags of the videos. You can also search for the duration of the media you want and also the date when the video was uploaded. In the advanced search you can also narrow the results down to specific media types such as videos, audio, or documents. Another alternative is to limit the search by selecting specific categories. However you also have the option to search for a medium in all categories. In addition, you can also specifically search a medium within a specific channel.

With the VIMP search function you have the possibility to find your media quickly and effectively at the moment it is required. You can read more information about the initial configuration up to the media upload in VIMP in our previous blog posts. In the next article we will introduce you to the share and embed function of the VIMP portal.

VIMP Installation Service

Leave the complete installation process of your VIMP platform to us.

 

The VIMP installation service includes:

To access your server from the outside, we need the following:

We recommend Linux as operating system. An installation under UNIX, BSD or Windows is also possible, but is not officially supported by us.

Minimum server requirements for installing VIMP:

Webserver

PHP

MySQL/MariaDB

Transcoding
Please install the transcoding tools exactly as described in the documentation. Installing the standard packages is not sufficient due to patent regulations.

CSS modifications
To concatenate modified CSS files, npm must be installed.

Hardware

As a minimum requirement we recommend:

For productive use we recommend:

We recommend using a RAID controller for additional data security.

VIMP Installationsservice

Ãœberlassen Sie den kompletten Installationsprozess Ihrer VIMP-Plattform uns.

 

Der VIMP Installationsservice beinhaltet:

  • Vorbereitung Ihres Servers
  • Installation der erworbenen VIMP Software
  • Installation der Transcoding Tools

Um von außen auf Ihren Server zugreifen zu können, benötigen wir folgendes:

  • SSH-Zugriff auf Ihren Server (idealerweise als root)
  • Vorinstalliertes Hosting (Apache + MySQL/MariaDB)

Wir empfehlen Linux als Betriebssystem. Eine Installation unter UNIX, BSD oder Windows ist ebenfalls möglich, wird von uns aber nicht offiziell unterstützt.

Minimale Servervoraussetzungen für die Installation von VIMP:

Webserver

  • Apache2
    • Version 2.4 empfohlen
  • oder NGINX

PHP

  • Version 7.1 – 8.0
  • GD-Bibliothek, openssl, cURL, MySQL, mbstring, PDO, pdo_mysql und XSL-Erweiterungen müssen installiert sein
  • PHP CLI (Command Line Interface) muss installiert sein
  • SourceGuardian Extension (außer für ViMP Ultimate Extended)

MySQL/MariaDB

  • MySQL: Version 5.7 – 8.0
  • MariaDB: Mindestens Version 10.2
  • InnoDB muss installiert sein

Transcoding
Die Transcoding-Tools bitte genau wie in der Dokumentation beschrieben installieren. Die Installation der Standardpakete ist aufgrund patentrechtlicher Bestimmungen nicht ausreichend.

  • FFmpeg
  • FFProbe
  • exiftool (>10.8)
  • time

CSS-Anpassungen
Um modifizierte CSS-Dateien zu verketten, muss npm installiert sein.

Hardware

Als Mindestanforderung empfehlen wir:

  • Quad-Core-Prozessor
  • 8 GB RAM
  • 500 GB Festplattenspeicher (die benötigte Größe hängt im Wesentlichen von der Medienzahl ab)

Für den produktiven Einsatz empfehlen wir:

  • Hexa-Core-Prozessor oder besser (mehr Kerne ermöglichen insbesondere eine schnellere Transcodierung der Medien)
  • 32 GB RAM oder mehr
  • 2000 GB Festplattenspeicher oder mehr (die benötigte Größe hängt im Wesentlichen von der Medienzahl ab)

Wir empfehlen die Verwendung eines RAID-Controllers für zusätzliche Datensicherheit.
