Light Box problem
Mon, 03/08/2010 - 20:32
Greetings! After some work, I got the Kaltura/Moodle extension generally functioning. But I have a fairly significant problem with the lightbox that appears when interfacing with Kaltura from within a Moodle page.
The Kaltura lightbox popup seems to be capturing the header.html code from my Moodle theme and inserting it into the header of the Kaltura lightbox. This effectively pushes down the Kaltura options, making it impossible for me to advance any of the Kaltura settings.
I am attaching a screen grab of this issue.
Does anyone know where exactly the display for the Kaltura lightbox gets created in the plugin module? I don't see any obvious php file generating the lightbox view.
Thanks in advance!

I had a similar problem. I ended up manually modifying the size of the light box (the white area where the kcw goes in):
File: /mod/resource/type/kalturavideo/resource.class.php
The default size is {width: 760, height: 422}.
There are four lines where that is defined. I modified the height to fit my needs (it wasn't as bad as yours).

Thanks for the comments, I tried editing the file and actually made the width = 5000 for all 4 of the 760,422 pairs and nothing change. I even tried deleting and reinstalling and no change.
Are you sure that was the file that you modified?

Yes, /mod/resource/type/kalturavideo/resource.class.php. Lines 262, 271, 279, 423. It modified the lightbox dimensions for me. Note that this is for the "Video" resource. For the "Video Presentation" resource the file should be /mod/resource/type/kalturaswfdoc/resource.class.php.
The other change I made was to add:
#mod-kaltura-kcw #page { padding: 0px; margin-left: 0px; }
#mod-kaltura-kse #page { padding: 0px; margin-left: 0px; }
#mod-kaltura-kdp #page { padding: 0px; margin-left: 0px; }
At the end of the /mod/kaltura/styles.php file (because the kcw was shift to the right on my server, so I couldn't see the "X" to close it, but I don't think that is the case with you).
The other place I can think you can fiddle with is /mod/kaltura/kcw.php. There is a line there that define the dimension of the actual kcw:
echo get_cw_wizard("divKalturaCw", 760, 402, $upload_type == 'video' ? KalturaEntryType::MEDIA_CLIP : KalturaEntryType::MIX);
You could try reducing this "402" and making something like "300".
I think it all comes down to the kaltura mod inheriting styles of whatever Moodle's theme one uses. So it might be different from install to install.
Anyway, that's what I did.

Hi, I am having the exact same issue. We are using the CE version on our own server.
I am able to browse for a file but that is as far as it goes. The other buttons are hidden below.
Screen shot attached.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
