Open, Stalled, Needs TriagePublic

Description

VideoCutTool is a tool to trim, crop, rotate on-the-fly videos in Wikimedia Commons. It is hosted in Wikimedia Toolforge and can be found at https://tools.wmflabs.org/video-cut-tool/

Background
VideoCutTool deals with video computations using ffmpeg, As this tool require more time to compute videos. and also during uploading new videos back to commons. Currently, users have to wait until this process completes,

This might not be as user-friendly as the users might not know how much progress did the video encoding processed.

Task:

  • Learn about VideoCutTool from Commons: VideoCutTool
  • If the user is logged in VideoCutTool, We can notify users by sending email-notifications after completion of video-encoding and or uploading new video back to commons.

Implementing the toggle bar on the top-right to enable notification would be a good idea by @zhuyifei1999

Gopavasanth removed a project: Google-Code-in-2019.

Hi @Cernam2, As you don't have any updates yet, removing you as an assign, if you wish to work again in future, please feel free to claim the task again :)

Is this still open?, cause I think we receive notifications on uploading videos to commons now.
Anyways, we can always improve those i guess. Let me know if this needs working.. i'll be on it

@Reputation22 The work is half done I am on just want to confirm the sender's address (official email address videocuttool) with @Gopavasanth /@Soda

I don't think using the sender's address in this case is the way to go, instead, I think we should use the Wikimedia email API to send emails to the user (we can eithier create a new user account for this, or opt to have the new user email themselves via the OAuth sendemail permission).
