You can allow your users to embed videos hosted by Kaltura in their content by specifying the Player ID and Partner ID associated with your Kaltura repository in a custom macro.
If you use Kaltura to host videos and want to make them available for users to post in your community, you'll need to specify the settings for your site using a macro which you can then enable and disable.
-
Upload your videos using the Kaltura Media Console and make sure they're available for viewing.
-
Under Embedding Kaltura Media Players in Your
Site, find the instructions for "Using Static HTML-based Embed
Codes."
-
Following these instructions, get the {PLAYER_ID} and {PARTNER_ID} that
identify your site.
-
In the Admin Console under , edit the settings for the CustomVideoMacro: kaltura macro and use these values to populate the playerID and partnerID settings. Make sure you select the space where you want to enable this provider. If you want to apply the setting community-wide, select the root space.
-
Make sure that macro is set to On. (Note that when you disable a provider macro that has been enabled previously, videos already embedded from that provider will show as disabled.) When your users embed videos from the Web in content, they'll see Kaltura as a video provider option below the embed code field, and will be able to paste video embed code from Kaltura into the field to successfully post and play videos.
