Hi David,
Thanks for the input. We will certainly bring it up in basic mode first.
Not sure at this point if we'll need more than that. If we do, you may
hear from me again.
Thanks for the pointer to your code also.

Hi John,
Sorry in the chaos of final exams I missed your original post. We've
been working on extending the LTI work originally done by Josh. 1.4
will include the first version of this that allows the display of a
"series" (really a search result) or individual video via LTI. In the
UCT msub there is a more evolved version that links to an actual
series by id (or search result), UI enhancements and allows for
management of recordings. We plan to contribute this to 1.5
There are a couple of caveats/limitations LTI to be aware of:
- Setting up LTI tools is not particularly friendly and requires a
fair bit of user knowledge (We get around this with an automated
workflow from our incident management system)
- IN basic mode LTI users are in memory users so in order to use
advanced features like scheduling you have to run LTI in highly
trusted mode and have your Matterhorn intergrated with a user source.

Hi John,
there is an LTI provider for a single video and a list of videos, as
well as a page on the Opencast Wiki detailing how to use it [1]. We
have recently installed the tools in a Moodle instance, so they are
known to be working.
In principle, what you need to do is go to
etc/security/mh_default_org.xml and find the oauth token and secret
and use those when you set up the tools inside the LMS. The base URL
is your Matterhorn installation, and the tool url is
ltitools/episode/index.html or ltitools/episode/index.html,
respectively. The series tool takes a "series" parameter with the
series id, while the player tool uses the "id" parameter pointing at
the correct mediapacakge id.
By the way, it seems to me that the wiki page titled "LTI basics" is
really just that: the basics :-) So if you happen to be able to take
screenshots or add some comments and further explanations, that is
highly appreciated!

Hi Folks,
We at UC Berkeley would like to make the Matterhorn Media Module
into an LTI provider so that we can (easily?) integrate it with our
new Learning Management System.
Poking around in the code base, I see there is an example
implementation and some documentation but I am hoping someone has
actually implemented that using one or more of the fully functional
matterhorn modules, hopefully MMM of course.
My research indicates that, at a minimum, we will need to turn OAuth
on. Enabling OAuth does seem well documented in the security
configuration file but hearing about any gotchas or additional
configuration necessary in this area would be most welcome.
I have been told that David Horowitz has done that for at least one
module so we would be particularly interested in hearing from him. A
pointer to code that does this would be ideal.
Any other pointers or sharing of experience about implementing LTI
would also be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance for any input on this subject.
