Twitter Player Card support #76

Open sybrew opened 7 years ago

sybrew commented 7 years ago

Twitter Player cards allow for videos to be output on Twitter.

This is awesome! Alas, Twitter requires HTTPS for output. Source: https://dev.twitter.com/cards/types/player

To fix that issue, we can use our CDN to resolve this; therefore Premium.

Notes to self:

  1. The CDN usage should be optional with clear explanation.
  2. Validate if video works through admin interaction (i.e. be able to play it).
  3. It seems they only accept HTML5 video on mp4 @ H.264/AAC for direct stream. Adobe Media Encoder script?

...what about if https is implemented at server and use of your CDN is not desired - will Twitter Player Card premium extension allow for this case?

(btw, I hear you've got a CDN rolled up, thats cool... can you tell a little info about it? ;)

Hi Max,

Check out the notes:

The CDN usage should be optional with clear explanation.

The CDN of choosing is a technical side step which is still to be determined. For TSF I currently use Azure.
