I have two upload functionality on website one use kaltura CE to upload and manage video and another is simple upload functionality, which upload video files on my another web server.

This is the sample embed code, I have written for playing video from url.

embed height="403" width="585" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" name="KDP" allowfullscreen="true" flashvars="http://www.chizam.com/jsp/indexes/chizamImages/anim4.swf" src="http://www.kaltura.com/index.php/kwidget/wid/_17411_174111"

As per the wiki, try something like:

<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
<div id="kplayer"></div>

<script type="text/javascript">

        var params = {

                allowscriptaccess: "always",

                allownetworking: "all",

                allowfullscreen: "true",

                wmode: "opaque"

        };

        var flashVars = {

                entryId: "http://www.chizam.com/jsp/indexes/chizamImages/anim4.swf"

        };

        swfobject.embedSWF("http://www.kaltura.com/kwidget/wid/_{PARTNERID}", "kplayer", "400", "360", "9.0.0", false, flashVars, params);

</script>

I have tried both the way. But it is not working. In browser status bar it is showing "Read www.chizam.com", but nothing is getting played on video player.

hi all,
I am back with one more issue with KDP. I have created functionality to play video from kaltura and also from other provided server URL. But it is seems it fails somewhere, Some videos are played in the KDP and some are not getting played. I have check the URL and found there is the video available there and it can be download from there with URL.

Followings are URL's for testing which you can test it.
