Description
The Media module provides a framework for managing files and multimedia assets, regardless of whether they are hosted on your own site or a 3rd party site. It replaces the Drupal core upload field with a unified User Interface where editors and administrators can upload, manage, and reuse files and multimedia assets.

For this task you will create a tutorial demonstrating how to create support for a new 3rd party provider for the Media module. This tutorial should describe all of the steps needed to create a module similar to Media: YouTube 7.x, including the creation of the stream wrapper that provides the integration with Media.

Deliverables
A handbook page and a screencast documenting how to create a Media module. Extra (karma) points if you do the screencast as part of a Drupal Dojo (http://www.drupaldojo.com/) session.
