#666 video html to tei

[javad]

hi
when i want convert <video> to <media> in html2tei.xsl, happen error in attribute url and mimeType.

attribute url is empty and mimeType is "image/jpeg". but when i change attribute "match" to match="img|video/source|embed", all <source> convert to <media>

[Sebastian Rahtz]

can you submit a test file, please? <video> seems to work for me, so I need to see what you are doing differently

[javad]

this is example:
<video>
<source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4" />
<source src="movie.ogg" type="video/ogg" />
</video>
and test.html attached for full test.

hmm. the problem is that we don't have an equivalent container in the TEI to video or audio with alternate sources. I have (unsatisfactorily) changed the code to just take the first <source>. If you can suggest a better solution?

[javad]

i think insert <media> with @corresp and insert <p/> in back matter.
<p/> is contains <media/> with any mimetype.

Also i send request for mailling list TEI-L:
1. add new valid element to media for example: <altMedia/>
2. definition media in <choice/> as valid element.

Per discussion on the Council list: I suggest that the <media> element should be able to nest, in order to handle this, with a basic processing model which is similar to that of the HTML <object> element. We should also consider a similar idea for <graphic>.

[Lou Burnard]

As per my comment on Council list, I disagree.

[Syd Bauman]

We should consider adding a fallback= attribute to ＜graphic＞ and ＜media＞ which is a pointer to, e.g., another ＜graphic＞ or ＜media＞. Could, of course, point elsewhere.

[Sebastian Rahtz]

Council conclusion is that SR should submit a spec for a new grouping element.
