Greetings,

I am the IT managers for a manufacturing company and we are looking at UMG to host photos and videos on our DNN site.  From my research of your product I see that in order to use video and images intermeshed I need to purchase the production pack for the widescreenshowroom, which is limiting, but also a very nice module, so not that impactful.  

My research also indicated that there would be a space limitation to the widescreenshowroom in the number of albums due to space constraints on album selection bar.  So I need to know if I can: 

1. Host multiple widescreenshowrooms on a page?
2. Is there a sub album feature for widescreenshowroom?
3. What work arounds have you used in the past to solve this problem?


Most of the videos we will be showing will be training videos for our partners, that we would like hidden from our customers.  But there will also be some instructional, and infomercial type videos for our customers.

1. What type of permissions can I assign with in the different albums?
2. If I can host multiple widescreen showrooms on different pages can I then assign user rights to the pages to limit the users access?
3.  Can I prevent users from downloading the videos or the photos?

I'm not sure which license model I should be looking act, and if this is the right soution or if I should be using the UMG and UVG independently to get the desied results.

Please let me know as I will be making my product determination sometime next week.

Salutations,
John O'Connor

1. Host multiple widescreenshowrooms on a page?
yes, you can place unlimited UMG instance on single page, then can be configured to run in same presentation or different presetations.
2. Is there a sub album feature for widescreenshowroom?
no, this presentation support 1-level albums, this is be design.
3. What work arounds have you used in the past to solve this problem?
this is not proved to be a problem, at least I didn't get any report up to now. if you do have a lot of albums and sub albums, I think you an organize them in different DNN pages.


1. What type of permissions can I assign with in the different albums?
you can enable "View Permission" in UMG, so you can set which roles are allowed to access an album.
2. If I can host multiple widescreen showrooms on different pages can I then assign user rights to the pages to limit the users access?
yes, this feature is provied by DNN core, you can set which roles are allowed to access a DNN page.
3. Can I prevent users from downloading the videos or the photos?
techinical speaking, no, real player is becoming a popular software in recent yeays, real 11 can easily download videos on internet from almost all websites, like youtube, google video...

how many websites do you plan to use UMG on? if only one them you just need a standard edition.
it's hard to say if you use UMG and UVG together, please read the user guide and determine by your self.

thanks.
