[Building Sakai] Problems with Kaltura, Chrome and HTTPS?

Hi Beth,

It looks like at the top of the page it loads script from an unsecure site
as you've noticed.

[blocked] The page at https://ctools.umich.edu/. . . ran insecure content
from http://html5.kaltura.org/js

A local user as a workaround can click the icon in their URL line and load
this script, but that's pretty inconvenient.

It looks like there are two ways to fix this. Kaltura could add a https
enabled site for this script, currently going to this as https doesn't
work. (https://html5.kaltura.org/js doesn't work). You could also proxy
hosting that js locally through Apache/Nginx and have it appear as like
https://ctools.umich.edu/html5.kaltura.org/js locally.

Then set the property (commented out) to reference this.
kaltura.player.html5.js=

I think if they had https working you could even just set the property to //
html5.kaltura.org/js and it would default to the protocol that the source
uses (this is what youtube uses now).
