Requires :

1. PHP v7.x with either mysql, xml, curl, mbstring and zip extensions available.
2. Apache or some other web server that is setup to execute PHP.
3. Write permission to USER-FILES

Optional additions :

1. ClamAV - if /usr/bin/clamscan exists, uploads will be checked for viruses. Requires appropriate AV definitions are in place.
2. XML parsing - if PHP has the 'xml' module installed, then we'll validate the Learning Object's XML before saving on the server.
3. Transcoding support for video files - see/read cron/transcoding.php - when run it will attempt to convert .flv files to .mp4 files to improve template viewing on Adobe-flash-free devices.
