An example video is at
http://di.ncl.ac.uk/panopticon/A web service is provided by
http://panopticonize.com for anyone to upload and convert videos in this way.
This web service is exposed as an API via HTTP for use by 3rd party applications. All you have to do is sign up for an API key at:
http://panopticonize.com to start converting videos.
The examples you can download here are working code examples for using the interface and can be used ‘out of the box’.
We will gradually try and add more language examples, so stay tuned.
If you want to use the API directly, documentation is provided at
http://panopticonize.com/docs.phpPanopticonize.com video processing is driven by a set of PHP scripts found
PHP Batch Video Processing Script. You can use these to drive your own video processing web API.
