Process types in JoomMedia

Images

When you upload an image file, JoomMedia will attempt to generate smaller copies of the image using ImageMagick. The smaller images will be used as thumbnails. If the original is very large, then the smaller images can also be used on the main media page to prevent the user having to load the original. Additionally, watermark images can be encoded into the smaller images which are generated.

Videos

When you upload a video file, JoomMedia will attempt to encode copies of the video into potentially 4 different formats:

  1. Flash (.flv)
  2. h264 (.mp4)
  3. WebM (.webm)
  4. Ogg (.ogg)

JoomMedia will also attempt to capture screenshot images from the video which can be used as thumbnails in the gallery.

Audio

When you upload an audio file, JoomMedia will attempt to encode copies of the audio into potentially 2 different formats:

  1. MP3 (.mp3)
  2. OGG (.ogg)

Documents

When you upload a "document" file type to JoomMedia, generally no processing will occur. However, depending on the format, JoomMedia may attempt to extract a thumbnail from the file. JoomMedia supports this for some formats, for example PDF and PSD.
