Understanding Galleries and Channels in Kaltura MediaSpace

You can access MediaSpace media collections through Galleries and Channels.

Galleries define the taxonomy and hierarchical structure of your Kaltura MediaSpace site (KMS). You can access galleries through the MediaSpace navigation header and browse the content contained in it. Each gallery can open up the list of sub-galleries that are pre-configured by the MediaSpace administrator.

A channel is a user generated collection of content that pertains to a subset of users (or all authenticated users). Channel managers and site administrators may give users permission to perform specific actions in a channel. You can access your channels from the My Channels selection in the User menu.
