UPGRADING FROM OLDER VERSIONS:

1. Completly remove the old kaltura_video/ directory in the plugin's folder (mod/) and put the new one instead.
2. Check the configuration options by login into your Elgg installation as admin and go to:
   "Administration" -> Kaltura Video Admin
3. Run the "Recreate all video objects" as administrador if your older version is lower than 1.0 .
4. That's all, enjoy it!

TINYMCE INTEGRATION
 
    This plugin can be integrated into TinyMCE rich text editor. To do that, simply go to "Administration" -> Kaltura Video Admin and choose "Try to integrate into tinyMCE".
 
    However there are a lot versions of this plugin and the integration method is far away from perfection.
 
    So, if something is broken after activating the integration, deactivate it and report me this issue!

KALTURA CE SERVER
 
    You can change the server and the flash widgets used in the plugin
    by login into your Elgg installation as admin and go to:
    "Administration" -> Kaltura Video Admin

ADVANCED IMPORT VIDEOS FROM KALTURA
 
    From version 1.0 you can easyly import videos created outside Elgg in Kaltura (for example with the drupal or wordpress plugin).
 
    To do that, go to Kaltura's CMS:
    http://www.kaltura.com/index.php/kmc
 
    Login in, edit the "Video Mix" videos (you can only import this kind of videos). Put the "Admin Tags" property with the value of "elgg_plugin" followed by the username in Elgg you want to assign the video.
 
    EX:
 
    If you want to import a video from Kaltura's CMS to the user "foo" ("foo" is the username, not the name of the user) edit the details of the video in Kaltura's CMS and let the Admin tags like this: elgg_plugin foo
 
    Then go to your Elgg installation and run "Recreate objects" logged intoo and admin account.
