Provideous

Provideous is a command line application that will quickly create a one off video page. I use it to quickly create a page that I can drop on the web (or drop box for that matter) to share quick screen casts I've made with other remote team members. By default it uses videously to compress and normalize the video.

Installation

Install it with:

$ gem install provideous

Usage

Creating a project

$ provideous projectname videofile

This will do the following:

  • Create a directory named projectname
  • Copy videofile into the directory
  • Run videously on videofile to create an H.264 main profile, normalized audio version of the file (see note below)
  • Create a screen-capture of videofile (at approx. 1 second) to use as a poster for the video
  • Create a single, responsive page (using Zurb Foundation 3 )
  • Create a filenamed css/app.css for you to customize the look of the page
  • Open the page for you to preview

Videously note

Optionally you can pass -s as a third parameter. Doing so will skip the use of videously to compress and normalize the video. If you don't have videously installed, you will need to pass the -s and ensure your video is ready for the web.
