New PeerTube plugins
We’ve enable the following new plugins on peertube.debian.social:
auth-openid-connect
Upstream page: https://framagit.org/framasoft/peertube/official-plugins/tree/master/peertube-plugin-auth-openid-connect
This plugin allows authentication using salsa.debian.org. This will now be the preferred form of login, and we won’t create any further local accounts.
video-annotation
Upstream page: https://framagit.org/framasoft/peertube/official-plugins/-/tree/master/peertube-plugin-video-annotation
This is a very new and basic annotations plugin, but it works.
To add annotations to your videos, go to the edit page for your video, click on Plugin settings and then you’ll be able to add annotations for the video.
The format is:
0 --> 10 Hello world, this is an annotation! And will be displayed in the first 10 seconds 10 --> 20 This annotation will display at the 10th second until the 20th second.
For more information and examples, visit the upstream page above.
