2 weeks ago The original peertube license chooser only shows, what users are allowed to do. This plugin only shows "CC-BY" or "CC-BY-SA" ans so on.
Both mean the same. See: https://creativecommons.org/share-your-work/cclicenses/
Is it possible to show both? Or make it configureable to show the original text from peertube, the short-names or both in the chooser-dropdown. And add a link to the definition for the CC-licence, which is choosen?
It's sort of possible, but as you can only delete existing licencse labels and add new ones through the plugin API, you could take the original text (but only in 1 language like English for instance) and use it to add it to the new labels, like:
"Attribution - Non Commercial - Share Alike (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0)"
See: https://docs.joinpeertube.org/api/plugins#video-licences-manager-api
We decided to use the non-descriptive, but internationally accepted and recognizable, licence identifier. The combined string is also too long to properly show on small screens.
PeerTube has accepted our addition of a link to the CC licence chooser (link behind the question mark), which became part of the PeerTube core platform for the video uploader.

For the video viewer we added the small icon after the title with a link to the actual license deed. The link on the license in the metadata field below the video already has a function as filter for search.
Thank you!
Although we still reply to most suggestions/questions about this plugin, we do not intend to take requests for further development.
