Hi..Im new in customizing the KMC in Flex Builder 3, I downloaded the flex project and import it into the editor then I build and run it. The console appear but with the pop-up error "invalid_ks". My question are:
* Do this source code I downloaded complete with all it's needed packages?
* Why there is no pop-up input form appear where I can log-in?
* What are the other software requirements besides Flex Builder?

Thanks in advance...

Hi,

What kind of customization are you doing to the KMC?

I would like to add the a feature where user can change the thumbnail, he/she can choose from 24 vid_slices and I would like to integrate it with my CMS.

Thanx..

Changing the thumbnail is possible at the moment (you choose it through the editor after you click on save).
What exactly do you mean by choosing from 24 vid_slices?

hi,
I think it is great that you are diving into the code of the KMC!
eager to see code contributions and further extension.

Nevertheless, if you only wish to use one of the frames of the video as a thumbnail, this functionality is already included.
here are some options:

1. Via KMC -
go to Content Tab, click on one of the entries, on the player you have a button with a camera (see attached image) , click it and thumbnail is changed.

2. Via the player (can be integrated into your own CMS )-
you can create a special player that holds the "capture thumbnail" functionality. this player will be presented only on special pages in your CMS (admin section for example) .
- go to Application Studio,
- create a new player ,
- go to features tab,
- select UGC&Viral interaction,
- add "Capture thumbnail " functionality
- save the player
the player will now be available in the content tab under "Preview and Embed" link. you can grab the embed code and integrate it into your CMS.

3. via the editor
as Ido described in his post.

hope you find this helpful
Ariel.
