[wplug] video management portals (slightly OT)

[Patrick Wagstrom]

Folks,

I've been tasked with some exploration for an upcoming research project. 
We're going to be taking large amounts of high definition video and audio 
and archiving the data, both for our research and future possible video 
production use.  We'd like to find some sort of web portal system that 
allows us to do the following:

Upload high quality video
Provide lower-bitrate streaming copy
Provide access to original H.264 files
Tagging, Searching, Commenting of Videos
Hosted by us

Those are our hard requirements, it cannot be a public site as due to IRB 
restrictions we can't put the data somewhere that other folks can stumble 
on it.  We've got a few other soft requirements, but I'll just start with 
the musts.

I've looked around at some of the common portal packages, such as Joomla 
and Plone and haven't found a good plugin for what we need.  Anyone know of 
one that works well?  Otherwise, we'll end up using Microsoft Interactive 
Media Manager or something like that.  I figure I'd ask if someone knew of 
an OSS solution first.

Thanks!
