Introduction

This wiki explains the provisioning of video (mp4) file as asset.

Background

Currently there is a provision for uploading image and other types of files as an asset. But only for image we enrich metadata using imageTagging job.

For video asset, we don't provide any specific metadata like, thumbnail, size, frame rate, format, etc.

As per the current requirement, we need to enrich the video asset with the above mentioned metadata as well.

Problem Statement

Enrich video asset with technical details like, thumbnail (auto generated), size, frame rate, format, etc.

Metadata to be enriched for Video Content:

• Thumbnail
• Size
• Frame Rate

• These details can be generated and update to content metadata at:
  • Upload API layer
