 ===== Video Processing in DSpace =====
+
+This extension now includes code to allow a DSpace installation to leverage video processing via the existing 'mediafilter' functionality. To enable you need to have working installations of both DSpace and Greenstone. You then symlink both java files lurking deep under the 'dspace' directory in the matching place within the DSpace source directory. Once this is done, you edit the source versions of dspace.cfg to include the new filter (RTFM) and recompile to include the new functionality.
+
+==== SimpleVideoFilter.java ====
+
+A mediafilter implementation that uses tools (as compiled by the Greenstone extension) to provide video processing. Expects, as input, TS files (MPEG2 Transport Stream) and generates a MP4 webstreamable version as well as a number of associated keyframe images (JPGs).
+
+==== ItemUpdate.java ====
+
+Minor modification to the existing ItemUpdate tool to provide an extra 'noundo' parameter. While it is possible to run the SimpleVideoFilter without this change, you'll generate a large number of undo script folders where-ever you ran "dspace filtermedia" from.
