I have been supporting our church's website for quite some time >10years. I would like to know how (in Drupal), I can have playlists of audio and video content. With audio, there is the audio attach module that allows any node to be a playlist container. Is there a corresponding thing for Video content?

My church's site is www.pittsfordcc.org. It is a drupal 4.7 site. I am planning the migration to Drupal 6/7.

Thanks

Check out this videocast at Mustardseed Media

Rich,

Check out the Podcasting with Drupal 6 videocast over at Mustardseed Media for a demonstration of how this can be done.

There are a few other episodes over there that will answer the rest of your questions, too. Basically, you can use CCK, File Field and SWF Tools to create a content type that will allow you to attach both audio and video to the same node, then use Views and FFPC Module to create the feeds.

Format?

What format are you looking for playlists in? html? css? xml? Are you looking for actual 'playlists' in the form flash players use?

RE: Sermong collections / playlists

What I want to have is sermon collections by pastor/preacher, and by book or topic. I would like RSS feeds from each one. This would be for either audio (MP3) or video content. For sermon collections I need to be able to have a body for that so the series can be described along with attachments (our pastor is a prolific writer and fully annotates his sermons). When posting sermons, I would like an easy way to choose which collections the sermon belongs to.

I want each sermon to be in its own node with attached content such as slides (pdf), and sermon notes.

My content is hosted both locally and remotely. Video is currently on Blip.tv and audio I have on the site.

I think I want to use the new media module although I am not sure what to use to manage playlists. I currently use the playlist module, but I am still on 4.7 .
