About MediaCMS

MediaCMS is a self-hosted content management system built specifically for video and media files. It lets you run your own YouTube style platform where you can upload, manage, and share videos, audio, and images. The software handles transcoding, thumbnails, and metadata extraction automatically.

Built with Django and Python, MediaCMS supports multiple storage backends including local filesystem and S3 compatible object storage. It integrates with FFmpeg for media processing and offers a responsive web interface with user accounts, playlists, and comments. The platform also includes a REST API for programmatic access and supports federation with ActivityPub.

MediaCMS is perfect for educators, media companies, or anyone wanting to host their own video library without relying on third party services. It is released under the AGPLv3 license and runs on Linux servers with Docker support for easy deployment.
