La file d’attente de SPIPmotion
28 novembre 2010, parUne file d’attente stockée dans la base de donnée

Installation en mode ferme
4 février 2011, parLe mode ferme permet d’héberger plusieurs sites de type MediaSPIP en n’installant qu’une seule fois son noyau fonctionnel.
C’est la méthode que nous utilisons sur cette même plateforme.
L’utilisation en mode ferme nécessite de connaïtre un peu le mécanisme de SPIP contrairement à la version standalone qui ne nécessite pas réellement de connaissances spécifique puisque l’espace privé habituel de SPIP n’est plus utilisé.
Dans un premier temps, vous devez avoir installé les mêmes fichiers que l’installation (...) -
Multilang : améliorer l’interface pour les blocs multilingues
18 février 2011, parMultilang est un plugin supplémentaire qui n’est pas activé par défaut lors de l’initialisation de MediaSPIP.
Après son activation, une préconfiguration est mise en place automatiquement par MediaSPIP init permettant à la nouvelle fonctionnalité d’être automatiquement opérationnelle. Il n’est donc pas obligatoire de passer par une étape de configuration pour cela.

Merge file without data loss using FFmpeg inside of WASM
9 septembre 2023, par DejiEdit : I'm rewriting this entire question


Goal : To reconstruct a video from its pieces/chunks from a network stream inside of an
@ffmpeg/ffmpegworker

Problems :


- 

- Video chunks/pieces which come after the first piece/chunk are reported by
@ffmpeg/ffmpegto have invalid data, as seen in the log below :




{
 "type": "stderr",
 "message": "video-0_chunk-1.part: Invalid data found when processing input"
}


- 

- How would I merge these chunks/pieces to reconstruct the full video using
@ffmpeg/ffmpeg(after solving the first issue above)




My current code situation :


- 

- For merging the video pieces




const constructFile = async (chunks: Uint8Array[], queueId: number) => {
 await Promise.all(
 chunks.map(async (chunk, index) => {
 const chunkFile = `video-${queueId}_chunk-${index}`;
 await ffmpeg.writeFile(chunkFile, chunk);

 // Return information about newly created file
 ffmpeg.exec(["-i", chunkFile]);
 })
 );
};


I'm reading the logs/output for


ffmpeg.exec(['-i', chunkFile])


using


ffmpeg.on('log', (log) => console.log(log))


- 

- For fetching the videos using streams




await useFetch(Capacitor.convertFileSrc(file.path), {
 responseType: "stream",

 onResponse: async ({ response }) => {
 if (response.body) {
 const reader = response.body.getReader();

 while (true) {
 const { done, value } = await reader.read();

 if (done) break;
 file.chunks.push(value);
 }
 reader.releaseLock();
 }
 },
});


Note : file.chunks is linked to a reactive value which is passed to
constructFile()when initialized

These are the logs I get from the code currently above :

Notes :


- 

- The sections which start with
Processing.vuecome from the logging system I've setup. - The pieces/chunks gotten from the network where stored in exactly the same order in which they came
- If you've seen the old question, the

- Similar to this, some logs were repeated twice because I was actively changing some things and the component had to rerun from the start












Summary : If my problem is still not clear, you could provide another way of fetching a large file (video) from a network, loading the file into memory and passing the file data to

8 Best Tools to Analyse Website Traffic
12 septembre 2023, par Erin — Analytics Tips, MarketingDo you want to analyse your website traffic ?
Maybe you want to know how well you’re converting your traffic. Or maybe you’re looking to track the performance and ROI of your marketing campaigns. Regardless, you won’t get far without relying on a dependable web traffic analysis platform.
In this article, we’ve compiled a list of the top web analytics tools available (including the pricing for each one).
Let’s dive in.
What is website traffic analysis ?
Curious about what it means to analyse website traffic ?
Simply put, it involves collecting and examining data about your website visitors and the actions they take. Marketers, analysts and website owners can then take this data and use it to optimise their strategy to improve site traffic, conversion rates and ROI.
A website analytics tool is software that tracks and measures various visitor activities and behaviours on your website. Common metrics include pageviews, traffic source, bounce rate and average time on page. Using a web analytics solution can give you insights into what’s working (and what’s not working) so you can optimise your website, campaigns or marketing strategy.
Advantages of using a website traffic analysis tool
1. Performance measurement and optimisation
Tracking the success of your marketing efforts is a challenging task. The primary benefit of using a web analytics tool is implementing effective performance measurement. If you don’t know how to measure your efforts, you won’t know what’s working and what’s not with your campaigns and content.
A web analysis tool can give you the insights you need to understand whether your marketing initiatives have been successful or if they need to be improved.
For instance, your new web design facelift may seem beautiful, but if visitors aren’t staying on your site as long and it is resulting in lower conversions, then it’s time to go back to the drawing board.
2. Audience insights to improve the user experience
Web traffic analysis platforms don’t just show you what your visitors are doing. It shows you who your audience is. A powerful website analytics tool will give you in-depth audience data, including demographics like geographical location (e.g., city, state or country), to help you better understand your audience.
Additionally, you can learn more about your audience by seeing how they interact with different content on your site. You’ll start to see that certain content performs better than others, giving you a greater understanding of your audience’s needs and wants. This means you’ll be able to tailor your website content and marketing efforts to your audience to improve the overall user experience.
3. Improve SEO
In the first two advantages, we touched on how insights can help you craft better content for the visitors already coming to your site to improve the user experience and improve conversions. But did you know that using a website analytics tool can also help improve how much traffic you’re getting to your site ?
Since a web analytics tool can help you craft better content, one side effect is an increase in traffic from organic search through SEO. Additionally, your platform will likely show you other traffic sources that your visitors are coming from (i.e., another website is referring traffic to you) so you can tap into those high-performing sources and optimise your incoming traffic over time.
Top 8 Tools to Analyse Website Traffic
Here’s a breakdown of the top eight web analytics platforms to help you analyse each tool’s unique features, price, advantages and disadvantages so you can make the best decision.

GDPR Compliance Checklist : A Detailed Walkthrough
14 septembre 2023, par Erin — GDPRAs digital transformation drives global economies, data has become a valuable currency to businesses of all shapes and sizes. As a result, the complex issue of data privacy is often in the spotlight.
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is the key legal framework in the European Union to protect individual privacy and regulate business data handling.
Compliance with the GDPR is not just a legal mandate, it’s also good business. An 86% majority of users want more control over their data and 47% of users have switched providers over data privacy concerns.
To help guide your business decisions around user privacy, this article will cover the key principles of GDPR, including a comprehensive GDPR compliance checklist.
The key principles and requirements of GDPR
Before we can translate GDPR’s objectives into practical steps, let’s begin with the defining features and key principles.
GDPR : An overview
The GDPR bolsters and unifies data protection standards for everyone within the EU. Enacted in 2018, it represented a seismic shift for companies and public authorities alike in protecting personal information. Its primary objective is to offer greater control to individuals over their data and to hold organisations accountable for its protection.
GDPR establishes a legal framework that mandates corporate compliance with key principles to ensure user data security, transparency and choice. It sets the terms for your organisation’s privacy practices and the landscape of legal obligations you must navigate in data handling.
Key principles of GDPR
There are seven core principles pivotal to GDPR compliance, which provide a roadmap for ethical and legal data practices.
- Lawfulness, fairness and transparency : This principle demands lawful and fair processing of personal data. Companies should be transparent about their data processing activities, providing clear information in an accessible form.
- Purpose limitation : Personal data should be collected for explicit, legitimate purposes and not further processed in a way incompatible with those purposes. This demands careful planning of data processing activities.
- Data minimisation : Companies should only collect personal data that are necessary for their specified purposes, as anything more than this is illegal. This principle emphasises the importance of limiting scope, rather than performing blanket data collection.
- Accuracy : This principle calls for maintaining data that is accurate, up-to-date and not misleading. Regular internal audits and updates are crucial to following this principle.
- Storage limitation : Personal data should only be kept for as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected. This underscores the need for a detailed retention policy in your GDPR compliance efforts.
- Integrity and confidentiality : Companies should protect personal data from unauthorised or unlawful processing and accidental loss or damage. Your organisation’s technical security measures play a vital role in this.
- Accountability : Organisations should be able to demonstrate their compliance with GDPR principles. This underscores the importance of records of processing activities and regular audits as part of your compliance checklist.
The importance of GDPR compliance for businesses
Embracing GDPR compliance isn’t merely a matter of avoiding penalties — it’s a commitment to principles that reflect integrity, transparency and respect for personal data. At Matomo, we champion these principles, empowering companies with powerful and compliant web analytics. We make the compliance journey accessible and straightforward, making sure website analytics aligns with legal obligations and ethical practices.
The implications of non-compliance
It’s easy to highlight the dramatic fines imposed on tech giants such as Google and Meta. However, it’s essential to recognise that GDPR compliance extends to all companies, including small businesses — for whom even smaller fines can have a significant impact.
The implications of non-compliance aren’t limited to financial penalties alone, either. Failing to meet obligations can tarnish reputations, erode trust and hinder business activities. Non-compliance could lead to a breach of privacy policy, causing a ripple effect that may be challenging to overcome.
The potential benefits of being GDPR compliant
Adhering to GDPR regulations is more than a checkbox on a form — it’s a comprehensive approach to handling personal data responsibly. It fosters trust, opens doors to European customers and builds enduring relationships with individuals whose rights are protected. In fulfilling these obligations and practices, businesses not only meet legal requirements but also foster a culture of ethical conduct and business success.
Comprehensive GDPR compliance checklist
Ensuring GDPR compliance may seem like a complex task, but this detailed checklist will simplify your journey. From consent management to data security, we’ve got you covered.
Establish personal data collection and consent management
When it comes to GDPR compliance, not all consent is created equal. Two distinct forms exist : explicit consent and implied consent. But what exactly sets them apart, and why does it matter to your organisational measures ?
Explicit consent from users means that the individual has unequivocally agreed to the processing of personal data. It’s an unambiguous agreement, often obtained through a deliberate action like ticking a box. Details are paramount, as the person giving consent must be fully informed about the processing activities.
- Inform clearly : Use plain language to explain how data will be used and be transparent about processing practices.
- Obtain active agreement : Use forms or checkboxes (not pre-ticked boxes) to ensure active participation and that you are obtaining explicit user consent.
- Document it : Keep records of consent, including when and how it was obtained, as a crucial part of your compliance efforts.
- Facilitate withdrawal : Use consent mechanisms that allow for easy withdrawal of consent for users who decide to opt out.
- Manage consent forms : Tools like Matomo’s Consent Management Platform can provide accessible forms that not only enhance transparency but also empower individuals, allowing them to feel in control of their details and rights.
Facilitate data subject rights and access requests
GDPR emphasises individual rights by empowering users with control over their personal data processing. Here’s a succinct breakdown :
- Know the rights of individuals : GDPR outlines individual rights such as data access, error rectification, erasure and data portability, allowing individuals to guide how their details are used, processed or shared.
- Simplify complying with access requests : Companies must respond to access requests efficiently, usually within one month, without undue delay, reflecting organisational measures of respect.
- Employ ethical and compliant digital analytics : As a leader in ethical web analytics, Matomo subtly aids in compliance efforts, protecting privacy without compromising functionality.
These practices align with a modern understanding of privacy, emphasising more than legal obligations. By employing Matomo, companies simplify the processing of access requests, which fosters transparency and user control over personal data.
Implement clear data privacy practices
Data privacy and consent mechanisms are key tools for compliance. Crafting a comprehensive privacy policy helps protect individuals’ rights and provides integrity in personal data processing. Designing sites and applications with data protection in mind ensures your compliance from the ground-up.
- Create an easy to understand privacy policy : Create a clear, GDPR-compliant privacy policy that details processing activities, storage limitations and organisational measures, all in plain language.
By implementing these steps, companies not only adhere to their legal obligations but also foster an inclusive community that values privacy and ethics. Whether you’re an IT professional or marketer, Matomo’s platform can guide you through the maze of GDPR complexities, inspiring positive change towards responsible data handling.
Implement data storage limitations and robust security
Data storage and security are foundational elements of compliance efforts. Companies must foster a proactive approach to preventing data breaches by understanding potential cyberthreats and enforcing appropriate security controls across applications and infrastructures.
- Implement storage limitations : Define limitations on time and scope to avert undue retention and protect personal details.
- Embrace technical security : Utilise secure processes like encryption, access controls, firewalls and so on, bolstering protection by design.
- Establish a comprehensive security policy : Align security practices with privacy laws and regulations, including GDPR.
- React swiftly to personal data breaches : A security breach requires an immediate response, without undue delay, to honour legal obligations and maintain customer trust. Develop a plan for notifying supervisory authorities and affected individuals promptly in the event of a personal data breach.
Security measures for personal data are about more than just fulfilling legal obligations — they’re about building a safe and ethical digital ecosystem that instils confidence in customers.
Keep cross-border data transfers in mind
Cross-border data transfers present a unique challenge, with increased complexity due to varying data privacy laws across regions. You must understand the respective regulations of participating countries and align your compliance practices appropriately to respect all that are relevant to your organisation.
For example, data privacy laws in the US are generally more lax than the GDPR so US companies taking on EU customers must hold themselves to a higher standard, with stricter controls placed on their data processing practices.
- Evaluate third-party services : For companies utilising global networks of third-party services, be sure to select providers that maintain ongoing knowledge and vigilance towards privacy law compliance. Platforms like Matomo that innately prioritise transparency and privacy, have implemented robust security measures, and document transfers diligently are worth considering.
Conduct internal audits and compliance checks
Compliance is not a “one and done” setup, but an ongoing journey requiring regular internal audits. Systems settings can drift over time, and datasets can become increasingly complex as companies scale. Human error happens, too. Audits identify gaps in your compliance efforts to guide actionable improvements.
- Conduct regular audits : Stay proactive with internal audits and systematic monitoring, adapting policies to align with privacy laws. Clarity in privacy notices and cookie banners fosters confidence, while regular assessments ensure alignment with GDPR requirements.
- Ensure transparency : Platforms like Matomo simplify audits, offering valuable insights and support for ethical web analytics and transparency. The right platform can increase visibility and make generating your reports easier. Integrating these processes guarantees GDPR-aligned measures while emphasising data ownership and customer-centric values.
- Educate and train staff : Engage in ongoing staff education and training on GDPR compliance, privacy policies, and their related responsibilities.
Case study : GDPR compliance in action
Achieving compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) stands as a paramount concern for businesses worldwide. Both small and large companies have embarked on this journey, implementing measures and revising privacy policies to conform to these regulations.
Typeform
Based in Ireland, Typeform, a company dealing with online forms, took GDPR compliance very seriously. Here’s how they achieved it :
- Conducting a data protection impact assessment (DPIA) : This vital step helped them assess personal data breach risks and enabled systematic monitoring of potential challenges.
- Implementing technical and organisational measures : Security measures such as encryption, access control and drafting a security policy reinforced their personal data processing mechanisms.
- Revamping privacy policy : They transformed their privacy policy with accessible, plain language, making it clear and user-friendly.
- Appointing a data protection officer (DPO) : This aligned with their core activities and strengthened their compliance efforts.
The benefits for Typeform were profound :
- Enhanced customer trust and confidence
- Reduced risk of fines and penalties
- Bolstered data security and privacy
- Improved brand reputation, positioning them favourably among European customers
