As an alternative to the included video representations generator, let the user broad his own callable.
It gives full control on the representations to be transcoded, like custom resolutions or bitrates.

If I want to include a video on a page with doing all steps like in the README but replacing article with page in the template example, I get the following error:

CRITICAL: UndefinedError: 'str object' has no attribute 'duration'

Or, with adaptation of the template, it simply just won't play the video.

Hello,

A feature I would like to see would be the possibility of placing video(s) in an article or page with a directive or a tag.

When using a directive, I would think it should look like:

.. dashify:: some-video.mp4
   :height: 100px
   :width: 200 px
   :alt: alternative text/or youtube link if video not loading

Ideally, this would play well with using links like {static}/some-video.mp4 or {attach}/some-video.mp4. The latter is what I am interested in.

I was wondering if you considered extending the plugin with those capabilities? Or are you open for suggestions or PRs here?

Instead of invoking one ffmpeg transcoding per representation, let ffmpeg handling this in a more efficient way by using grouped outputs.

• Ensure that progress is consistent for a future tracking of it
• Check, test and document the ffmpeg versions who support the grouped outputs feature

Hey, thanks for your plugin and work!

I figured when I want to use it with Python 3 it is not working (despite claiming it in the setup.py).

The following issues occur on make html:

• CRITICAL: NameError: name 'unicode' is not defined
• CRITICAL: AttributeError: 'dict' object has no attribute 'iteritems'
