Trouble Creating Sermons Automatically

Thomas, thank you for the Sermon Speaker component! I have a question about reading id3 tags from an s3 hosted mp3 file. Amazon has the following guide for the stream wrapper: docs.aws.amazon.com/aws-sdk-php/v2/guide...-stream-wrapper.html

Would it be possible to implement the code they have for reading large files where you can read only a certain number of bytes (just enough to get the id3 data)? If this is possible, I would greatly appreciate if you consider implementing this.

We are running into an issue with our hosting company because the sermons are taking up a lot of space and we are considering moving them to s3. We usually use the orphan tool to upload sermons and rely on the id3 reading tag functionality.

The SDK tools from Amazon S3 to my knowledge need a higher PHP version than what Joomla uses as minimum. That's why SermonSpeaker uses a different library. I'd have to see if that is possible as well with that library, but I think the way the ID3 lookup works, I'd have to download the whole file anyway.
I think the orphan tool doesn't work with AmazonS3. I haven't tested that.
