How Can I get the raw URL of the uploaded media file? - drupal-7

I have a media field through which I both embed video files from Youtube and upload videos to. I do only want to get the raw URL of the uploaded/embedded videos through the views module but I can't manage it. There are predefined formatters for the video field in the view UI, however the link formatter prints additional data that I don't need. How can I get the raw URL only?
Thanks!

The module below lets you manipulate the view using php.

How to store images in firebase using URL from cloud storage service?

Hi I am developing an ionic app using firebase as my database.
I read this question.
I understand it and have a more specific question.
I uploaded an image on amazon s3, imgur and filestack, and tried all three in firebase using data:url/<the url of image> and data:image/jpeg;<url of image>.
Am I typing something wrong into firebase?
The image does not come up. I do not want to write code in the app to upload the image etc, I just simply want an image to display on the app beside some data corresponding to an item in my firebase database.
I have read about base64, do I have to use it in this case?
(Optional) Perhaps If you could expand on the steps of doing this:
"You can use a filepicker to get the image file. Then you can host the image however you want, i prefer amazon s3. Once the image is hosted you can display the image using the url generated for the image."
I don't have much ionic experience, but why not just save the direct path to the image url and not include the data:url/ portion.
Simply store the url in firebase and then when it's retrieved inject it into your img src.

Creating the view as PDF in sencha touch

My requirement is after user taps createPDF button,to generate current view as PDF. Using
console.log(this.getMain().getActiveItem().renderElement.dom.innerHTML);
i can able to get entire HTML element. Now i stuck to generate my view as PDF. Any suggestion
You should google pdf viewer.
For example, if you wanted to view the PDF at the URL http://research.google.com/archive/bigtable-osdi06.pdf ,
you would use the URL: http://docs.google.com/viewer?url=http%3A%2F%2Fresearch.google.com%2Farchive%2Fbigtable-osdi06.pdf
then use HTML object tag and pass the url to "data" attribute. Attached this as html in your view.
Thanks
You have two options if you are working in a browser, (if you are working in mobile devices you should working with inAppBrowser cordova plugin)
1º With the mozilla-pdf library: http://mozilla.github.io/pdf.js/
2º With the pdfObject library: http://pdfobject.com/instructions.php
Both libraries are very complete to work with the browser but the mobile devices are other mistake...

Tried to look for some tutorials but not much of help. Can someone please guide me through with this?

dnn - upload an image to portal and use it in html module?

how do i upload an image to the portal and use it in my html of my html module?
i have an html module i want to use and part of it is an image. how do i upload to my portal and then reference the url where it is on my server inside my html?
In case you didn't see my comments on the other one. One way is to just find the file on the hard drive and figure out the link manually in relation to your web root. But if you are using this as a portal system then this might not be the best solution.
There is also upload option right withing html editor. click on image manager icon and it will give you the option to upload an image.

If your HTML is being put in the DNN HTML module, you could also use the media picker baked in.
If you want a more integrated option, you could use the DNN FileManager API to accomplish integrated uploading and retrieving of files. The DNNFilePickerUploader might come in handy for this, which will give you a DNN file ID which you could the use to get the image url.

How do I upload an image as a File and display it as a Thumbnail with Tapestry 5?

Using the 3rd party tapestry-upload component, I can upload a File from the client on the server.
Using the chenillekit's thumbnail component, a can make a thumbnail from an Asset.
How can I convert my File into an Asset in order for the Thumbnail component to provide me the image thumbnail ?
There are a few threads on the mailing list that deal with this. Basically, you need to contribute a custom AssetFactory that reads the image from disk (or the database). You might also look at URIAssetFactory which is part of ChenilleKit itself.
Here are a few links to help:
