Video Discussions

Adding Video to a Discussion Post

To embed videos from your My Media media gallery directly in a discussion post or to record a new video for a discussion post:

  1. Click on the link to open the Discussion Forum. You may be creating a new thread or replying to someone else’s. In this example we will create a new thread.

  2. Click the “Create Thread” button to create a new thread.

3. In the Message area, type your post title in the Subject line and then in the text box editor, select the

Plus sign button and then “Kaltura Media”. This will open your Kaltura My Media media gallery.

 

4. If you have already recorded the video, you can select it from those listed. If you have not, you will need to select “Add New” and then either “Express Capture” (for webcam only) or “Kaltura Capture” for recordings of slide presentations or screen capture.

 

 

5. Once you have selected your video or recorded a new video and then selected it, the text box editor will now have a large yellow or gray box where your video will appear. This is normal. Click “Submit” to post your video.

 

When recording new video, there may be a delay between when you upload and when the video is ready for viewing. If the video is still processing, you will see a message telling you that the video is still processing and you will not be able to play it yet. Depending on the size of the video, it could take up to an hour for your video to appear.
