Embedding Kaltura Videos in H5P Interactive Video (Moodle)

Hi Guys,

We were able to successfully embed our Medispace Kaltura videos in the h5p interactive video module by tinkering around the following URL.

www.kaltura.com/p/1660902/sp/0/playManifest/entryId/{entryId}/format/url/flavorParamId/{flavorParamId}/video.mp4

To make it work we made the following changes to the above URL:

Swapped the kaltura.com part with our Kaltura admin backend URL
Replaced the entryID with the unique code of the Mediaspace video (https://media.kpu.ca/media/The+Inspiration+of+Bees/0_aq3vcz8j)
Added 0 for the flavorParamId

This, in turn, generated a unique URL with a new flavorID which we weren't able to locate in the source code of the video webpage.

What is interesting is the final URL that plays the video in the browser and is accepted by the h5p plugin is totally different from the original one.

Right now we are trying to find out where the flavorID is coming from as that might lead to giving a more stable URL/instructions to our faculty.
