Looking for a tool to create a media server for my company

Looking for a tool, hopefully open-source or a free edition that will allow for:

  • Image Upload
  • Video Upload
  • Accounts with permissions so certain accounts can view specific folders of images or videos
  • A Gallery to display images and videos and hopefully include HTML embed code
  • Be able to tag items uploaded so they may be searched

Those are my basic needs. I have tried Kaltura, but it's not quite what I am looking for, it focuses too much on video and not enough on images. Plus a couple of other things that didn't suit me needs. Any ideas? I would like to run it on an openSUSE 11.X install

Solution

  • There is not anything out there exactly like that. While I have heard similar requests before, everyone has their own take on how it should work and what the features should be.

    The closes thing I can think of that might suite your needs is Gallery with a module like embedVideo. Regardless, it very well may require a bit of coding on your part to flesh out everything you desire.

    This all could run on openSUSE, no problem.
