Are Nuxeo DAM video thumbnail or storyboard images exposed through CMIS?

Hi all,

I have updated the question, so I'm just asking for a yes or no...

I am doing some tests with the Apache Chemistry CMIS PHP client. I am stuck trying to figure out how to get the video thumbnail images (all I have got is the generic video icon by calling getRenditions). Is it possible to access the video thumbnails created by Nuxeo DAM from a cmis client?

Thank you, Jose

You're misunderstanding the goal of CMIS. CMIS is a generic (cross-vendor) content access method, that only has generic file-related features. It's not able (nor designed to) access all Nuxeo features. If you want to access Nuxeo-specific features, then you need to use a Nuxeo-specific interface like Nuxeo Automation.

+1 I'd like to know this too. Also I'd like to know how to do conversion / transcoding through API.

For those asking, I am finally using the PHP Rest client instead of CMIS, it does the job perfectly and you can get both the thumbnails and storyboard images.

As commented above, I have been using the PHP Rest client instead of CMIS. Check here:

http://doc.nuxeo.com/display/NXDOC56/PHP+Automation+Client

You can get the thumbnail building an url such as this one ($uid refers to the document's Uid):

$nuxeoUrl."/nxpicsfile/default/".$uid."/Thumbnail:content/";

And any of the storyboard images with this one ($index is the image index and can be 0..7 i think):

$nuxeoUrl."/nxbigfile/default/".$uid."/vid:storyboard/".$index."/content/storyboard-000.jpeg";

Cheers.
