EngageMedia and Unweb have released Plumi 3.1.1, the latest version of the video-sharing platform that is built on the Plone open source content management system.

In this bug fix & stability release, the changes focus on enhancing the transcoding framework, improving the commenting system and correcting issues with video embedding:

• Transcoded video files are deleted when a video is deleted in Plumi
• The “bookmarks” icon has been replaced with a standard social media “Share” icon and the list of available sites has been expanded
• Videos are now listed in reverse chronological order in member video folders, video lists and RSS/Vodcast feeds
• Comments are now listed in reverse chronological order
• The option to nominate a language when uploading a video has been removed
• Improved display of videos linked within Facebook
• Revised embed code to address issues encountered in WordPress and Drupal-based sites
• Modified call to Transcode.Daemon to ensure all videos are transcoded when uploaded via web or FTP
• Able to change the owner of a video

You can download Plumi 3.1.1 as a compressed tar file from Plone.org or via SVN.
