MMEDIA_INFO_QUALITY

The hachoir_metadata library allows you to specify how it parses metadata, from 0.0 (fastest) to 1.0 (best quality). Default:

MMEDIA_INFO_QUALITY = 1.0

MMEDIA_THUMB_SIZE

The size of automatically generated thumbnails for images. It is a two integer tuple for width and height. The default is 100px wide by 80px high. Default:

MMEDIA_THUMB_SIZE = (100, 80)

MMEDIA_EXTRA_MIME_TYPES

The Python standard library includes a MIME types map of file extensions to MIME type. However, this map may be incomplete. This setting extends the default mapping. It is a dict of dot-extensions mapped to MIME type. Default:

MMEDIA_EXTRA_MIME_TYPES = {'.flv':'video/x-flv',}

MMEDIA_FS_TEMPLATES

There are two ways to manage the templates used to render content: via the admin or through files on the computer’s file system. If this setting is False, there will be a MediaTemplate model for managing the templates by MIME type. By default, this setting is True and templates are managed through the path massmedia/. Massmedia looks in a hierarchy for the correct template. For example, an image with a MIME type of image/jpeg

/massmedia/image/jpeg.html
/massmedia/image/generic.html
/massmedia/generic.html

Where it first looks for the most specific template, and then falls back to more generic templates. Default:

MMEDIA_FS_TEMPLATES = True
