Previewing Embedded Kaltura Media and Interactive Video Quizzes (IVQ) using Canvas's "Student View" Function Does Not Work
When an instructor uses the "Student View" function in Canvas to view a Page or Quiz with Kaltura media embedded using the Kaltura-->Canvas integration the instructor is presented with the message "Access Denied" or a blank space where the media should be.
The Kaltura-Canvas integration refers to inserting media in a Canvas Page using the starburst Kaltura icon (
)in the rich text editor. Even though the instructor can't see the media using the "Student View" function the students will still be able to see the media. This will happens with media that is embedded using the
Kaltura-Canvas integration outlined in Canvas - How to Embed Kaltura Media in Canvas (UW-Madison) .

Users report issues with all versions of PowerPoint (OS X and Windows). Users are placing links to media items in Microsoft products. When users click this link their web browsers never open the media. On OS X they see an error message. On Windows, they get stuck at a login page. This only affects media that is set to "Private".
