Thanks for all the input. I&#39;m currently weighing Kaltura against using Amazon S3 for storage and something else for transcoding. Video has support for S3 and, as you mentioned, Zencoder. I&#39;d rather just plug up Kaltura and get on with it, though.<br>


<br>
Steve, can you elaborate on what kind of bad experience you had? Was it an issue with support? Performance? Code quality? Integration issues? ... And with what versions of relevant components were you working?<div class="im">

I also tried out and follow the video module progress.  It seems like<br>
they are making a lot of progress there.  It is tightly integrated with<br>
zencoder.  Might be worth test driving for your purposes as well.<br>

        I never used the release in question above.<br>

        We built an entire POC using the Kaltura module(s) and the<br>

            Wow! Hadn&#39;t seen that. Thanks Bill, had no idea.<br>
<br>
            But the module page is normal and there is a current<br>

            What gives?<br>

                Before using Kaltura, I would recommend auditing the<br>
                code to check how the Kaltura module interacts with your<br>
                site. This has not always been disclosed to end users.<br>

                I have used Kaltura. They have an excellent module,<br>
                very well designed and documented, both for viewing<br>
                and for conducting business with the Kaltura server.<br>
<br>
                You can try it for free.<br>
<br>
                The only problem I had for several clients was that<br>
                the cost seemed a little steep at the time (given<br>
                their budgets), but that may be an uninformed opinion<br>
                on my part. One client used it successfully for a<br>
                video contest campaign.<br>

                        with the kaltura module. It looks good, but<br>
