Hi, I've embebbed the KCW in a section of a web, and I realised that when the user tries to upload a video, the widget doesn't let you select the converstion profile. Instead of that, kaltura applies the "default" profile, and you have to go to the KMC manually to apply another conversion profile to the entry.
The UiConf that I paste in the code is the KCW Light that comes by default.

Is there a way that I can configure the UiConf (via flashvars or xml editting) so I can select one of the profiles the publisher has?

P.S. I'm asking this because the KMC's uploader lets you select the profile without problems. The version I'm using is Kaltura CE 5.0.

I don't see any flashvar that does that (http://knowledge.kaltura.com/kaltura-contribution-wizard-kcw-customizati...)

However you can use the js function (AfterAddEntry) to add it automatically, right after the creation of the entry

I haven't tried it yet, but, isn't it an alternate solution? I mean, I could add another conversion profile after adding the entry, but Kaltura would automatically convert it to the Default profile first. I would end up having 2 conversions of the entry, even though I only want one of them.

The KSU widget inside the KMC does this without problems, that's why I asked this.

Anyway, as I said, I haven't tried what you suggest, but thanks for answering.
