Vimeo uploading - may be off topic

[Adam N. Rosenberg]

Hi Vimeo fans,

     This may be off topic, but maybe somebody can take pity on me.
I have 284 aviation videos that I would like to upload to Vimeo.
(I used FFMPEG to add music soundtracks with help from this group.)
I could upload the AVI files one at a time and type my video titles
and descriptions, one at a time, or I could write a script on Linux.

     I know how to write C code and stuff like that, I can cobble
together HTML and blunder my way through really-basic PHP code,
but the kind of interactive reactions that run Vimeo applications
are beyond my current knowledge.  Their documentation presumes one
already has a working knowledge of how to use Vimeo applications.
I haven't a clue, so I really need baby-steps instructions.

     I downloaded their PHP file for uploading and I ran Vimeo's web
page that gave me a Consumer Key and a Consumer Secret, but I don't
know what I'm supposed to do next.  If I can get one PHP script
to upload one video with title and description, then I can write
284 scripts with a C program from my file list and submit them.

     Any help would be appreciated.

I reckon http://vimeo.com/api/docs/upload has everything you need to
know.

Hi Dave,

     I reckon it does have everything, except the basic stuff of how
to setup and to run the programs.  They figure you already know that.
I'm looking for real baby steps for a first-time Vimeo programmer.

1.  Go the http://vimeo.com/setup-auth
2.  Type your username, password, and description of the application
3.  Press the GET KEY button.
4.  Write down code and secret code.
5.  Download PHP file from http://vimeo.com/get-upload-code
6.  Add the following lines to the bottom
     ...

     Once I can do that for one video, then, yes, I can figure out how
to do the other 283 of them.

Might I humbly suggest if you are looking for vimeo support, the
ffmpeg users mailing list is not the best place to look. If you were
looking for baby steps for a first time ffmpeg programmer, you would
have been exactly right...

Cheers

Tom

Hi Tom,

     You're right, but I figured people who mess around with video
files might also mess around with YouTube and Vimeo, and maybe one
of those solved my problem.  Thanks.
