This guide is intended for instructors that want to record their presentation directly to a specific Panopto folder or D2L course. Start a Recording Open Panopto from the icon on your desktop or taskbar. Sign in using your DMU username and password. Click Sign in. Confirm your settings. On the AV computers in the classrooms you will use the following settings. Video: Select any available video device, or select None to not record with a camera. Audio: This setting varies depending on the room or devices. Select a device and then speak or tap on the mic to see if the audio meter bounces in the recorder. If it does, you’ve selected the correct device. Quality: Standard Capture Computer Audio: If you are not recording in a classroom this setting should be checked. If you are recording in a classroom, some of the renovated classrooms do not require this to be checked to capture sound playing from the computer. Please find the in-classroom instructions that indicate if this setting should be on or off. Or verify if the setting should be on by playing a video or sound file and check the audio meter in the recorder to see if it bounces. Capture PowerPoint: Checked (if recording a PowerPoint) Capture Main Screen: Checked Choose the folder where you would like your recording to be stored. Can’t find your course folder? Look for a folder called Active Courses. It will be grayed out, but you can still click the triangle to see courses inside it. If it’s not under Active Courses it may still need to be provisioned in D2L. If you have time, see the guide on how to provision a D2L course for Panopto. Otherwise, record to your My Folder, but check with your academic assistant or the Solutions Hub afterward to ensure the course was provisioned properly. Once provisioned your recording can be moved from your My Folder to the appropriate course folder. Replace the date and time with the name of the recording. We recommend using the title of the presentation and the name of the presenter. Example: Intro to Med Pharm – Dr. Henry. If you are starting your presentation with a PowerPoint click on the PowerPoint tab. Click Open a Presentation and browse to your PowerPoint. Choose Yes to start your recording when the PowerPoint opens. Otherwise click Record. Give your presentation like normal. Everything you do on the computer will get recorded. Stop a Recording When finished, click on the Panopto icon on the taskbar to pull up the recorder. Click on the Stop button. Check your session name one more time to make sure it is accurate. If not, you may change it here. Click Upload. Your recording will be uploaded to Panopto and available to share or edit within 10-15 minutes, depending on the length of the recording.

In this article, you will learn how to trim a video in Panopto. Looking for a different editing function? See the links below for additional functions that can be done within the Panopto Editor. How to Insert a Clip from Another Panopto Video How to Add Automatic Captions How to Embed a Quiz into a Panopto Video To trim out parts of a Panopto video, sign into https://dmu.hosted.panopto.com using your normal DMU or D2L credentials.  Then locate your video and select Edit (Pencil Symbol).    Once you’re in the editor, follow these steps:  Locate the timeline below the preview window.  When you press play, you will see the red vertical bar move along the timeline.   If you are trimming the start of your video, play the video and pause it at the point that you want the video to start.  Select the cut tool. Click and drag the gray line at the start of the timeline, to the red bar. The gray line will snap into position with the red bar to allow you to be more precise with your cuts.   The same process can be repeated to trim the end of the video.  You can also trim out sections in the middle of a video by clicking and dragging in the middle of the timeline.   Note: Clicking and dragging within the top row (P1) of the timeline will ensure the whole section gets selected. It is possible to only trim out the video and leave the audio by graying out one of the bottom rows. Trimmed sections will always appear in the timeline but will not playback in the Panopto viewer once you apply your changes. That is because Panopto’s editor is non-destructive, and always allows you to re-add those sections back into your video at any time if necessary. To change a trim, simply drag the edge of the trim and adjust it accordingly.  Dragging one edge of the trim into the other edge will remove the trim entirely and restore any content it was covering.  In the top right corner of the page you have the option to Undo/Redo recent changes.  If you are happy with your changes and want to save them, click Apply.  If you want to undo all changes made in this editing session, choose Revert to return the video to its original state. If you still need help, click here to request assistance with Panopto.

In this documentation, you will learn how to share a video in Panopto. Prerequisites Creator access to Panopto   1. Invite People 1.1.  In your video library, hover over the video you want to share and click on the Share icon. This will open your sharing options (Fig. 1).      Figure 1 1.2.  Under People and groups, start typing the name of the person or group with whom you want to share the video (Fig. 2a). Based on the name or group you start typing, a suggested user list will appear for you to select the correct person or group from (Fig. 2b). Note: Underneath People and groups, you will notice information about whom the video is already shared with: the number of groups or people with access and where the video's permissions are inherited from.     Figure 2a     Figure 2b  1.3.  Once selected, you can opt to do the following: Notify people, which sends them an email to let them know they have access to the video; Include table of contents and transcript if available, which adds the video's table of contents and transcript to the email sent; and Message, where you can type in a custom message to send to them regarding the video. Once you have done this, select Send to share the video (Fig. 3).      Figure 3  1.4. The person or group will appear in the list of names under People and groups (Fig. 4).     Figure 4  2. Share with a Wider Audience 2.1.  You can also share the video with a wider audience. Select Change from under Who can access this video to change the sharing option (Fig. 5a). A pop-up list will appear with the following sharing options (Fig. 5b). Note: a video inherits sharing permissions from its parent folder. A user may adjust this sharing permission to be more public than the parent folder setting, but not more private. Additionally, Your administrator can change what sharing options are available to you, so you might not see all of these options.   Restricted: Share the video with specific people and groups as viewers. Your Organization (unlisted): Anyone at your organization with whom you've shared the link.  Your Organization: Anyone at your organization can find and access the video.  Public (unlisted): Anyone with whom you've shared the link can access the video.  Public: Anyone can find and access this video.  Figure 5a    Figure 5b 3. Share using a link  3.1. If you have set Who can access this video to any option except Restricted, you can copy and share the link by selecting the Copy Link button that appears.  Link copied will appear at the bottom, indicating that you have successfully copied the link (Fig. 6). Optionally, select the checkbox next to Start at and add the timestamp at which you'd like the video to start when the audience opens the link provided.   Figure 6   4. Social Sharing  If enabled by their Panopto administrator, users can share their Panopto videos to certain social media websites.  4.1. Using the guidance in step 2.1., set the sharing option to Public (unlisted) or Public. The options for Facebook and Twitter will appear in color, rather than greyed out. Select either the Facebook or Twitter icon for the social media site you wish to share the video on (Fig. 7). Please note: If you wish to share the video on a different site, please copy and paste the direct link using step 3, above, instead.    Figure 7  4.2. The sharing option for Facebook and Twitter will open in a new browser tab (Figs. 8a and 8b). Facebook      Figure 8a   Twitter Figure 8b

To add a clip from one Panopto video into another Panopto video, sign into https://dmu.hosted.panopto.com using your normal DMU or D2L credentials. Then locate the video you want to add the clip to and click Edit (Pencil Symbol). Once you’re in the editor, follow these steps: Locate the timeline below the preview window. When you press play, you will see the red vertical bar move along the timeline. Play the video and pause it at the point that you want to insert the other Panopto video. Select the Add Content button. Select Add a clip. From the top dropdown choose the folder that contains the clip you would like to insert. Note: Both the video you are editing, and the clip you are inserting need to be available for your audience to view. If your audience does not have access to the video you used as the clip it will skip that portion of the video when they view the edited video. Select the video you would like to use as the clip. Click Insert. If you only want to use a portion of the clipped video, you may trim out parts of the video by clicking and dragging to gray out what you don’t want. (View the Panopto tutorial on trimming for more details.) In the top right corner of the page you have the option to Undo/Redo recent changes. If you are happy with your changes and want to save them, click Apply. If you want to undo all changes made in this editing session, choose Revert to return the video to its original state.

To add automatic closed captions to a Panopto video, sign into https://dmu.hosted.panopto.com using your normal DMU or D2L credentials. Then locate your video and select Edit (Pencil Symbol). Once you’re in the editor, follow these steps: In the top left corner of the editor, select the Captions tab. Select Import captions. Select Import automatic captions. Keep in mind that the automatic captions feature is only about 80% accurate. Panopto does provide a caption editor though, so it is highly recommended you go through each caption and look for errors. If you click on a caption line it will jump to that point in the video. You can play the video to compare what is said, to what is written and correct the text just by clicking on the line and typing. In the top right corner of the page you have the option to Undo/Redo recent changes. If you are happy with your changes and want to save them, click Apply.
