What is the difference between this and some alternative modules?

According to the official documentation about Kaltura’s Drupal Video Module, the Drupal bridge project to use is the one named Kaltura → .

But here are others. I've so far found four different Drupal projects to provide for interface with Kaltura:

  1. Kaltura →
  2. Kaltura Media →
  3. Kaltura Video →
  4. Kaltura Video Embed Field →

Why so many? And why is this effort fragmented over so many competing projects instead of joining forces to maintain one well-maintained project?

  • @gisle We can improve the documentation to highlight the other modules. At a glance, here are the differences:

    1. Kaltura - This only supports D7
    2. Kaltura Media - This adds a [media] field specifically for Kaltura media
    3. Kaltura Video - This gives an interface to manage Kaltura media via Drupal using the Kaltura PHP SDK. It also provides a new entity type for videos
    4. Kaltura Video Embed Field - This is a [source] plugin for Video Embed, which allows users to embed videos to Drupal content (via a field)
