Enable the Newrow (Kaltura Meetings) module
- Login to the MediaSpace/KAF admin page (<MediaSpace site Url>/admin)

When the Newrow module is enabled, all users can enter the Kaltura Live Room from the Media Gallery/Channel. A 'Launch Live Room' button is displayed next to the 'Add Media' button. You have the ability to control if the button is displayed by default or not.
