Razuna 1.4.4 available – enhancement and bug fix release

by on March 30, 2011 in Digital Asset Management, Razuna

We are happy to publicly announce the immediate availability of Razuna 1.4.4. The new version brings enhancements and bug fixes. If you are running a older release we encourage you to upgrade to Razuna 1.4.4 as soon as possible.

The enhancements
For Razuna 1.4.4 we made some changes how the search works. From this release on, we automatically combine separate words with an “AND” operator. Providing you with more accurate search results. Additionally, we added a visual feedback to the search.

On the visual part, we also changed the way how folders are being shown to SystemAdmins & Administrators. Now, those users will see all folders by default (previously you had to explicitly request the view). Furthermore, we included the latest edition of the video player, which adds compatibility to the latest browser generations.

Last but not least, Developers have a reason to celebrate. With Razuna 1.4.4 we are introducing new options to the API. These are;

  • Modify Metadata (Link to the DeveloperGuide)
  • Uploading an asset returns the assetid and the asset type

The fixes
With the help of our community we were able to fix a couple of bugs that showed up after the 1.4.4 release. We fixed some bugs which affected Windows installations (some users could not add images to the system), also users with a MSSQL server got some unexpected errors due to the new ID system which was introduced in 1.4.2. Windows users will also be happy to see that we fixed bugs with writing the metadata, creating thumbnails and the playback of videos.

At this point, we would like to thank all our users for helping us and making Razuna the best open source digital asset management / media asset management solution out there.

As always, the complete release notes for Razuna 1.4.4 are available.

How to get Razuna 1.4.4

Razuna 1.4.4 is available immediately over at http://razuna.org. As always you have the option to use our preconfigured Razuna Virtual Server, download the dedicated Razuna Standalone Server or deploy to your own J2EE-Server with our Razuna WAR/EAR distribution.

Razuna 1.3 and Razuna Desktop 1.1 available

by on December 2, 2009 in CFML, Digital Asset Management, Razuna

We are extremely excited to announce the all new Razuna 1.3 and Razuna Desktop 1.1 releases. We are extremely excited about those two releases since we have put in a lot of requests and enhancements into both products. We think, it will boost your productivity a lot!

Razuna Desktop
A lot of people have downloaded the application as it provides the easiest way to upload your assets to the Razuna Server. So, it was no question for us, to extend the functionality of Razuna Desktop.

The new release brings among other stuff the possibility to upload to any folder. You are no longer bound to upload only to the “UploadBin”. Simply choose the folder on the left side and upload to it. Moreover, Collections are a important part of Razuna, now those Collections are also available within Razuna Desktop. Another very useful option is that your assets can now be accessed right from Razuna Desktop.

Did we mention that you have your whole folder structure available within Razuna Desktop and you can browse your assets with it?

Razuna 1.3
Razuna keeps on going forward strong and the recent download numbers show us that a lot of people have been waiting for a strong open source tool to manage their multimedia assets. Naturally we think Razuna is the best way to do that. To keep up with the strong demand we are happy to have included many of the requested features. These are too many to list, but here is a short list of the main ones:

* MS SQL support. Tested with MS SQL 2005 and 2008.
* Languages can now be en-/disabled.
* Option to define your own extensions.
* You are now able to download any asset directly.
* You can upload your custom logo within the DAM administration.
* Fully compatible with Internet Explorer 8.
* Option to add assets to a collection from the list and search page.
* Users are now able to create subfolders (previously only administrators could do that).
* Many improvements to the Developer API among those a API for Collections.

There are many more fixes and enhancements under the hood and we think it makes up a pretty impressive new Razuna release.

Razuna 1.3 and Razuna Desktop 1.1 are available for download as of immediately at http://razuna.org. Also the favorite Razuna Virtual Image has been updated for your convenience.

Call for Developers

by on April 13, 2009 in CFML, Digital Asset Management, Razuna

Since its initial launch in August 2008, our Open Source Digital Asset Management System Razuna, has been downloaded many times and drives now a couple of professional Multimedia Libraries around the world.

We would like to extend the reach of Razuna and therefore we need you help!

To be more precise, we want to integrate Razuna into other systems by the way of a plugin or extension or whatever your favorite system offers for integration. We are currently seeking developers to help us integrate Razuna into other systems. We want to integrate Razuna into Typo3, Plone, Drupal, Joomla, WordPress, Movable Type or any other system you know and can benefit from a Multimedia Library like Razuna.

The best way to start is to look at the Razuna API Developer Guide with which Razuna can be accessed by standardized web services and to join our Developer Mailing List.

The Razuna API is a new addition we just published and will also be available for the (very) soon to be public available Razuna SaaS Hosted platform. If you haven’t seen it, it is available at http://razuna.com.
