Settings

The plugin provides the following configuration options:

1. URL templates for filtering: Defines the URL patterns that will be replaced with the Opencast player.

• To determine the correct URL, check which URL is inserted into the text by the repository.
• Typically, only one URL needs to be defined.

• Use the placeholder \[EPISODEID] in the URL to indicate where the episode ID should be inserted, e.g., http://stable.opencast.de/play/[EPISODEID]`.

2. URL to Paella config.json: Specifies an absolute or relative URL to the config.json file used by the Paella Player.

• This configuration file can be customized to modify the appearance or behavior of the Paella Player.

3. Enable LTI authentication: Enables authentication to ensure videos are displayed correctly when Opencast is behind the Secure Static Files security layer.

• When enabled, videos will be displayed in the default Opencast video player.
• It uses the LTI Credentials configured in Opencast API (tool_opencast) plugin.

• Important Note: As mentioned in the Opencast API (tool_opencast) plugin settings page, if you plan to use the LTI Authentication feature and have a multi-node Opencast instance, you must add an additional role (ROLE_UI_EVENTS_EMBEDDING_CODE_VIEW) to the Opencast API user's roles to ensure proper functionality.
