Configure Zencoder for Video Module

Note : This module will need to have public access to your development server, once you submit a job then Zencoder will postback some info to your server once conversion is completed, then only autothumbnail and status update in the database will happen. In the Zencoder Transcoder settings you can see the post back URL there.

How to configure Zencoder with the Video Module.

Go to Admin->Site Configurations->video->transcoders

Select Zencoder as your transcoder and type your email address to start using it. If you want to enter new Zencoder account always use Drupal interface. You can simply reset to default value and create new acccount. Make sure you register your Zencoder acccount only through the module page.

Once you save your site configurations, you will receive a email with all the details, including how to login to this and how to manage a job. Once you create your Zencoder for Drupal account now you will need to change permissions of your Amazon S3 bucket (Hope you already have configured Amazon S3 settings, if not do it now.)

Check for post back settings permissions.

You need to grant Write access to aws@zencoder.com so we can upload the processed file. The easiest way to do this is to use a S3 client, like S3Fox or S3Hub. Please note that it is the S3 bucket and not the S3 folders, which are part of the key, that need Write permissions

Now you can change the output configurations as you wish and now your ready to create videos with Zencoder support. You must set up and run cron properly to work, this.
