Orchard Media Garden is a new open source project I'm getting started over at Codeplex. It extends Orchard with an advanced media pipeline, allowing any kind of media to be embedded and displayed in your Orchard website.

Right now we're in the very early stages, but it already handles WebM, Ogg Theora, and Windows Media, as well as standard web image formats.

Using it is really simple - you just enter a URL to some media (or upload a file), then click "Import All" and the media pipeline takes care of the rest, turning your media into content items and selecting the best available viewer.

We've got a lot of plans for great ways to extend this and add amazing functionality. More updates to come, and in the next few days I'll be posting some Screencast videos to show off its features.
