Feature requests

Hello, thanks for all your hard work thus far. 

Within our Moodle 3.2 instance, we use "Kaltura" as a video repository plugin for our students and instructors. My instructors would love to use our Kaltura video links to create H5P interactive videos. Is there any way that your team can help us with this. Below I am adding images of what we see when trying to add Kaltura videos to an H5P project. 

This is what happens when I use our video link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1fdlYhLKBQu9Q5u8dAFMDAKFBwFf7VstJ/preview

This is the error I get after saving it: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JIXYTyE1mBLAwScfnB6fLpONxCOyba4a/preview

Our view of Kaltura: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-AxK7dtpFAyzm5JYZsZ-ul90eH2X12ZT/preview

As you can see we have some advanced features available in our Kaltura window> 1.Auto Embed 2.Dynamic Embed 3.Thumbnail embed 4.Iframe Embed.

Also below I am attaching a text doc of our embed code and short URL so you can see what we have available. 

Please feel free to call me if you need any additional information. 252-493-7645 .est.

Hi!

You would need to get a direct link to a video file that browsers usually have codecs for (they tend to have suffixes such as .mp4, .webm, etc.), and it seems Kaltura does not show it openly. If you have the resources, you could also dig through the source code of the Kaltura player and H5P.video and build a Kaltura handler similar to the YouTube handler.

Best,
Oliver

The easiest way I have found to get the kaltura video link is to download the flavor you want to use in H5P (probably the "Source" flavor) then from your downloads page in your browser (I'm using Chrome) right click the link and select "copy link address" from the drop down menu. Took me a while to figure this out so hopefully it will save others some time.
