About

This module is designated for Kaltura MediaSpace and KAF applications.

entryDesignRole - Choose roles, i.e. unmoderatedAdmin, admin, or privateOnly, or specific users or groups that are allowed to design media pages.

Provide Player Options

players - Provide the users with different player options to use on the media page. If left blank, the site's default player is used. 

Click +Add "players" to add players to the list of available players. Enter a player display name and player ID, then select an entry type from the drop-down menu. 

Continue to add players as desired by clicking +Add "players".

Select Player Behavior

showEmbedPlayerOption - Select the player behavior with the embed and default players. If the admin selects "User Selects", a button called Set as Embed Player displays next to the player selection. 

  • Force Entrydesign Player in Embed Code - If selected, the Entrydesign player will be used in the embed code of the Share tab. Players designated in the Embed module will be overridden.
  • Use Embed Module Players (default) - If selected, the Embed player will be used in the embed code of the Share tab. Players designated in the Entrydesign module will be overridden.
  • User Selects - If selected, in case a player is set for the corresponding entry type in the Entrydesign module, the owner/co-editor will see additional fields to select the "Entry Player" and a tickbox “Set as Embed Player”. Players designated in the Embed module will be overridden.

The following example demonstrates players set for the Video and Webcast entry types.

The following example demonstrates the Display tab setting of a video entry type, hence the video player was added for selection (The Webcast Live Player was not added in this case).
