How to Upload and Publish Media to a Course with Kaltura Using Build Content

Kaltura offers several ways to upload and share media directly to your Blackboard course.

Step 1

In a Blackboard course, select the course content area where you want your media to be placed.

Step 2

Select Build Content then select Kaltura Media.

Step 3

Select Add New then Media Upload to upload new media.

Other options under Add New include recording audio or video with your webcam, importing a YouTube video, or installing Kaltura Capture for recording presentations. Or, you could choose an existing video in your library. 

Step 4

Select Choose a file to upload then locate and select a media file from your computer.

Step 5

While the media is uploading, optionally give the item a Name then select Save.

Step 6

Once the media upload has finished, select Save and Embed at the top of the screen.

Save and Embed

Step 8

Name the Blackboard item, choose any options, and Submit.

Suggestions for Successful Uploads

  • Do not leave the page until your upload status is green and says done.
  • Some older browsers limit upload file size to 2 GB.
  • Make sure you are using a fast internet connection and that the computer does not sleep during the upload process.
  • After content is uploaded, it will take some time for the content to process until it is available for playback.
