Kaltura Player Web with Mediamelon Analytics

This guide is for integrating the MediaMelon Player SDK for the javascript based Kaltura Web player.

Step 1: Add the MediaMelon Player SDK

Include the following line to the web page at the start

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://PATH_TO_SMARTSTREAMING_SDK"></script>

Step 2: Register and Initialize the MediaMelon Player SDK

<customer_id> is your MediaMelon-assigned Customer ID. If you do not know your Customer ID contact MediaMelon at [email protected]

After the player instance has been created, create a new Plugin object, register, report player Info and then initialize the plugin as shown below:

<script>
  var mmVideoAssetInfo = {
    "assetName": "Lucifer",
    "assetId": "AssetId",
    "videoId": "videoId",
    "contentType": "contentType",
    "genre": "genre",
    "title": "title",
    "drmProtection": "none",
    "episodeNumber": "episodeNumber",
    "season": "season",
    "seriesTitle": "seriesTitle-On-Earth",      
    "customTags": {
      "Key1": "Value1",
      "Key2": "Value2"
    }
  };

  var config = {
    targetId: 'player-placeholder',
    "provider": {
      "partnerId": "1091",
      "uiConfId": "15215933"
    },
    sources: {
         hls: [
           {
             mimetype: 'application/x-mpegurl',
             url: 'https://bitdash-a.akamaihd.net/content/sintel/hls/playlist.m3u8',
             "mmVideoAssetInfo":mmVideoAssetInfo
           }
         ]
    }
  };

  try {
    var kalturaPlayer = KalturaPlayer.setup(config);
    // MediaMelon integration
    var kalturaPlugin = new KALTURAPlayerMMSSIntgr();
    if (kalturaPlugin.getRegistrationStatus() === false) {
      kalturaPlugin.registerMMSmartStreaming("PLAYER_NAME", "CUSTOMER_ID", "SUBSCRIBER_ID", "DOMAIN_NAME", "SUBSCRIBER_TYPE11", "SUBSCRIBER_TAG");
      kalturaPlugin.reportPlayerInfo("PLAYER_BRAND", "PLAYER_MODEL", "PLAYER_VERSION");
    }

    var mediaUrl = "https://bitdash-a.akamaihd.net/content/sintel/hls/playlist.m3u8";
    var isLive = false;
    kalturaPlugin.initialize(kalturaPlayer, mediaUrl, mmVideoAssetInfo, isLive);

  } catch (e) {
    console.error(e.message);
  }
