Publish Kaltura Media to a MediaSpace Channel


Overview


Just like you can publish videos to courses in Canvas (where they end up in the Media Gallery), you can publish media to channels in MediaSpace. These instructions apply to all Kaltura users at UCSD (instructors, students, staff, etc.).

Steps to Take


As mentioned above, there are two ways you can publish media in MediaSpace, though it may be more accurate to say that there are two locations from which you can publish them. 

Method 1: Publish from the Player Page

You can publish a video from the page where you can watch the video, also known as the "player" or "media" page. You'd get here if you found the video in your list in "My Media" and then clicked on it, or if you clicked on it in a channel. 

  1. Log into MediaSpace.
    1. Go to https://mediaspace.ucsd.edu
    2. Click the profile icon at the top right of the page and select Login.
    3. Enter your active directory credentials.
  2. Click the profile icon again and select My Media.
  3. Click on the title or thumbnail of the video you want to publish.
  4. Underneath the player, click Actions, then Publish.
  5. Select the radio button for Published, if it's not already selected.
  6. If it's not already selected, click the Publish in Channel tab.
  7. Click the checkbox next to the channel(s) where you'd like to publish the video.
  8. Click Save.

Method 2: Publish from the Edit Page

You can also publish a video to a MediaSpace channel from the so-called "edit page." 

  1. Log into MediaSpace.
    1. Go to https://mediaspace.ucsd.edu
    2. Click the profile icon at the top right of the page and select My Media.
    3. Enter your active directory credentials.
  2. Click the kebab (three dots) on the row of the video you'd like to publish. 
  3. Underneath the player, click the Publish tab.
  4. Select the radio button for Published, if it's not already selected.
  5. If it's not already selected, click the Publish in Channel tab.
