This is the Paella player bundled for Opencast.
The Paella (pronounce “paeja”) Player is a HTML5 video player capable of playing multiple audio & video streams synchronously and supporting a number of user plugins. It is specially designed for lecture recordings, like Opencast Lectures or Polimedia pills.
By using Paella, students can view both the lecture hall and the teacher's screen, get information about the lecture (slides, OCR, series videos, footprints) and interact with the lecture (views, comments). Teachers can also soft edit the lecture to set the start and end point or make breaks in the recording.
If you want to use the Paella player, but do not use Opencast, try the standalone version.
