Manage resources with Kaltura MediaSpace guide

As well as being viewable online, videos on the Kaltura platform can be downloaded for offline viewing. Enabling downloads can only be done by the owner or co-editor of the video - students cannot do this themselves. Once enabled, the video owner can download the film and make it available to their students via a file-sharing platform, such as OneDrive.

MediaSpace: Only offers the ability to download the source file (which may be very large).

My Media within Moodle: Offers the ability to download the source file and other video formats, so it may be the better option.
