Integration with Media Feeds for bulk import and encoding

Related to mass import of video files and Mass video node creation and transcoding.

Can be useful if you have huge amount of videos to import(and/or you don't need original files stored on your server), or you need import videos listed by html pages or rss feeds ... Sources for import are with Feeds nearly unlimited.
Required: Feeds, and for encoding without local copy also Media and Media Feeds

• in media_feeds.module (Media Feeds module)
  after line 26

  if (module_exists('image')) {
      $field_types[] = 'image';
    }

  we need

  if (module_exists('video')) {
  $field_types[] = 'video';
    }
  /

This adds ability for video field mapping in Feeds. As provider can be used Remote stream wrapper for http://, https://, feed://, and probably also for public:// and private:// .

If you need local copy of original file in your system, you can try slightly modified

• /mappers/file.inc from Feeds Module
  replace line 11

  if (in_array($info['type'], array('file', 'image'))) {
  

  with

  if (in_array($info['type'], array('file', 'image', 'video'))) {
  

  This (import with local copy) works without any of following modifications.
  

OK, we can import our nodes with Feeds now, and they are also added to video queue...

Issue 1: Thumbnails are not created.
Issue 2: We need path, where encoded files should be stored (only for files without local copy)
Issue 3: We need set default dimensions for video_queue table

  after line 1217

  else {
  		drupal_set_message(t('Transcoding job was successfully queued for %transcoder-name. The video %video-name will be converted soon.', array('%transcoder-name' => $transcoder->getTranscoder()->getName(), '%video-name' => $video->filename)));
      }
  

  insert

  // if video was not created through the form, we probably need generate thumbnails. 
   // if thumbnail(s) already exists or autocreation for thumbnails is disabled, do nothing.
  	if (empty($item['thumbnail']) && $field['settings']['autothumbnail'] == 'auto' && $transcoder->hasTranscoder() ) {
  		$thumbs = $transcoder->extractFrames($item, $field);
  			if ($thumbs === FALSE) {
  			  drupal_set_message('Thumbnails creation for '.$video->filename.' failed','error');
  			}
  			else {
  			 drupal_set_message('Thumbnails successfully created for '.$video->filename.'.','status');
  			}
  		}
