Step 1: Login to “Kaltura Management Console” (http://kaltura.com/kmc)

Step 2: Go to “Application Studio” make a “New player (Single Video)” with the features that you want for your player

Step 3: Get the “Name” and “ID” of your new player eg.
Name - “haysstreet”
ID - “1001725”

Step 4: You will now have to change 2 of the files that are included in the Kaltura module, the first one is “Kaltura \ kaltura_client \ kaltura_settings.php”. I have done this for videos as shown below

'video' => array( 'dark' => array( 'view_uiconf' => '605', 'remix_uiconf' => '604', 'preview_image' => 'dark-player.jpg' ), 'gray' => array( 'view_uiconf' => '607', 'remix_uiconf' => '606', 'preview_image' => 'gray-player.jpg' ), 'white-blue' => array( 'view_uiconf' => '609', 'remix_uiconf' => '608', 'preview_image' => 'white-blue-player.jpg' ), 'haysstreet' => array( 'view_uiconf' => '1001725', 'remix_uiconf' => '1001725', 'preview_image' => 'white-blue-player.jpg' ), ),

This will then show up on the admin setting of the Kaltura module (admin/settings/kaltura/kaltura_entry_settings)

Step 5: The second file in the Kaltura module is “Kaltura \ includes \ kaltura.themeing.inc” on line “556” Original has this:

$swf_url = KalturaHelpers::getSwfUrlForWidget($wid .'_'. $uicid .'/entry_id/'. $params["entry"] .'/uiconf_id/'. $uicid);

I have change mine to look like this

$swf_url = KalturaHelpers::getSwfUrlForWidget($wid .'/entry_id/'. $params["entry"] .'/uiconf_id/'. $uicid);

All I did was remove the _'. $uicid .' That comes after $wid .

My reason for doing this was because it if you don’t you page code looks like this

<param name="movie" value="http://www.kaltura.com/kwidget/wid/_13567_1001725/uiconf_id/1001725/entry_id/sg8y8smy4o"/>

When it should look like this

<param name="movie" value="http://www.kaltura.com/kwidget/wid/_13567/uiconf_id/1001725/entry_id/sg8y8smy4o"/>

Great guide! You should add this as a document in the Drupal project!

This is good, I got it to work. However, I'd like to suggest that Step 4 be made into a drupal form, possibly even pulling directly from the kaltura server, and Step 5 simply be fixed. I don't like the idea of having to hack the code like this, because it means I'm going to have to remember to redo it everytime I update the module.

Hi guys,
# of plays & # of views are not recorded with the new player.

Have followed the guide to the letter and even attempted some tweaks but I can't get it working. End result is either a black square where the player should be, or the dark player skin appears but the player doesn't work.

Default skins work fine with the original code, so there are no problems with the player when any of those skins are selected. I have Kaltura 6.x-1.4 with everything enabled including dependencies, running on Drupal 6.14.

Are there any settings in the management console or app studio I should look at? E.g. a checkbox somewhere saying "make theme public" or whatever? Any obvious settings in Drupal or Kaltura I may have overlooked?
