Backport Video module 5.X features to 4.7

It has been asked a lot by the video module users, by mail or through video module project issue tracker, to backport the features which will be available in the next to be realized video module for Drupal 5.X.

The backport has been created for one of my consulting clients then is available. However I can’t let this to became an official release of the video module for Drupal 4.7. Maintaining two branches with young code is an hard task I can’t afford.

The attached archive contains a 4.7 drupal install with the features available for 5.0 backported.
The system has been especially configured for the video convertion stuff.

Use the file called drupal47.sql as source for the db creation.

In the archive root there are two files: video_render.php video_scheduler.php. You will need to edit those files configuration values (at the beginning of the file) according to your environment and needs.

In order to convert videos you will need to run the
video_scheduler.php script (from the command line: php video_scheduler.php).
This can be done automatically using cron. I suggest running video_render.php every 5 minutes.
Your system administrators should be able to do this.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This version is not an official release and has not been tested deeply. Help and support will be only provided to the official 5.0 release of this features.
