This is particularly for uploading to MyMedia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although Safari is a browser for Apple computers only, Mozilla Firefox is cross-platform and is available for both Windows and Apple. You can get the software for download at &lt;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mozilla.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.mozilla.org<\/a>&gt;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To use Safari for uploading to MyMedia, you will need to make a change to one of the Privacy Settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>From Safari, go to the Preferences and select \u201cPrivacy.\u201d From there, un-check or deselect &#8220;Prevent cross- site tracking.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Google Chrome will not work for this specific uploading purpose. The browser will time out after a brief period and will shut you out of Moodle &#8211; which is frustrating. However, you will probably be able to use Chrome, provided that you change specific settings. Information on how to do so is <a href=\"https:\/\/confluence.royalroads.ca\/display\/ITKNOW\/Moodle+My+Media+-+Troubleshooting+Kaltura+Capture#MoodleMyMedia-TroubleshootingKalturaCapture-embed-error\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">To insert or embed images and movies in Moodle utilizing the Kaltura MyMedia<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This method will give you the option to add media to Moodle, without file size restrictions. You can upload image files, such as JPG and PNG types, and movie files, like MOV and MP4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First, have your media prepared and ready, on-hand on a drive, such as images in JPG or PNG format, and movies as MOV or MP4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then, in Moodle itself, when you need to make a forum post or another place where you are meant to provide text or media, in the Message section, where you utilize the text editor, locate where you intend to insert or embed the media.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Referring to the suite of editing options and switches at the top-edge of the Message Editor, click on the Embed Kaltura Media button. Doing so will open the Kaltura MyMedia Window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"demoblogs.ecuad.camrose\/files\/2020\/10\/moodle_message_editor_kaltura_button-1024x577.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3245\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">In the Kaltura MyMedia Window<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From the MyMedia section, find the \u201cAdd New\u201d menu button at the right-side of the screen. By clicking and pulling down, choose \u201cMedia Upload.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From the subsequent Media Upload page, you can either \u201cDrag and Drop\u201d a file there, when you will locate the given image or movie file, select and shift it into the window. Or, select \u201cChoose a file to upload.\u201d Follow the steps by locating the file from your drive. Click to select it and then press the Choose button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wait for Kaltura to go through the process of uploading the file to the server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You to fill in details in the required fields:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Name: Give the artwork a name.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Description: Write a brief, coherent sentence that tells what the project is.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tags: Click <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/spreadsheets\/d\/150AISwiVdKKhyzAfye6tKCnAaEs3THr5yqH7xMj17kg\/edit?usp=sharing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a> for a link to recommended tags.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kaltura will not let you proceed without adding details in the required fields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you have done the aforementioned steps, look at the top-right corner of the MyMedia Window. Click the &#8220;Save and Embed &#8220;button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">One more step<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After Kaltura does further processing, another window will appear, showing the media as it is embedded in its player.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Referring to the bottom-left corner of that particular Window, click the Embed Media button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Back at the Message Editor at the initial Moodle location<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The embed code will appear in the Message Editor &#8211; where you started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can then either add more writing or complete the task by clicking Save Changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Note In order to successfully upload images and movies to Kaltura and MyMedia, you will need to use a specific web browser, either Safari or Firefox.
