This article will show you how to provision Panopto in a D2L course. This process will generate a Panopto folder that matches the name of the D2L course, and provides the appropriate access for all students, staff, and faculty enrolled in the course. Faculty and staff will receive Creator rights to the Panopto folder which will allow them to create and modify recordings within it. Students will be granted Viewer rights to any video within it. Note: This process should be completed before your course begins and before any lectures or demonstrations are recorded. A content link to your Panopto recordings can be created for the individual module. 1. Click "Content." 2. From the Content edit page locate the appropriate module (or create one called “Panopto Recordings”) and click "Existing Activities" then "External Learning Tools." 3. From the External Learning Tools screen, select the “Panopto Recordings” integration link to add the link to the course content. 4. Click the newly created link from the module, the Panopto folder is being provisioned and it may take a few seconds to complete the task. Once finished, the Panopto folder content for the course is then displayed within D2L. It is likely this folder is empty the first time it is connected. NOTE: Instructors and Students alike may use this link to see the entire course video library.

Figure 9 4. Sharing Playlists 4.1. To share a playlist, locate your playlist and click on the Share icon (Fig. 10) Figure 10 4.2. Under People and groups, start typing the name of the person or group with whom you want to share the video. 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. 11a). 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 11a 4.2.a. 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, and Message, where you can type in a custom message to send to them regarding the playlist. Once you have done this, select Send to share the playlist (Fig. 11b). Figure 11b 4.2.b. The person or group will appear in the list of names under People and groups (Fig. 11c). Please note: To remove access to the playlist for an individual, select the X that appears to the far right of the user's name. If the parent folder for a playlist is shared with the user, you will be unable to remove access to the video until their access has been revoked at the folder level. Learn more at: How to Share a Folder. Figure 11c 4.3. Under Who can access this playlist, you can change the access permissions of the playlist by selecting Change and then selecting one of the following options (Figs. 12a and 12b). 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.

Link copied will appear at the bottom, indicating that you have successfully copied the link (Fig. 13). Optionally, select the checkbox next to Start at and add the timestamp at which you'd like the playlist to start when the audience opens the link provided. Figure 13 4.5. Using the guidance in step 4.3., above, set the sharing option to Anyone who has the link. 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. 14). Please note: If you wish to share the video on a different site, please copy and paste the direct link using step 4.4., above, instead. Figure 14 Important last step! 4.6.If the playlist is shared more widely than the videos contained in it, some viewers may not be able to access all the videos. To give all the playlist viewers access to all the videos in the playlist, click on Access and click Synchronize Access (Fig. 15). Permissions for all videos that you have Creator access to will be synced. Anyone who has Viewer access to the playlist will also be given Viewer access to the videos within the playlist, which includes anyone with the link. As such, providing the playlist link to users will also provide them with access to any of the videos listed within that playlist. Figure 15

Smart Chapters create an automatic table of contents through Optical Character Recognition (OCR).  This allows Panopto to automatically generate the table contents through our Zoom Cloud Recordings, rather than strictly from PowerPoint presentations.  This feature is ideal for making longer recordings easier to navigate! Smart Chapters are automatically applied to your Panopto Recordings.  If a previously recorded video does not have smart chapters automatically applied, and you would like them to be applied, open the video in the editor. Select the Contents tab from the left-hand navigation, and move the toggle button to the right of the Show Smart Chapters option, which will change to Hide Smart Chapters if smart chapters are enabled (Fig. 1).   To learn more about Panopto Smart Chapters, including how to edit your Smart Chapters, please see the following tutorial: https://support.panopto.com/s/article/How-to-Use-Smart-Chapters#hTargetInstance2 To request support with Panopto, please use the following Service Request form: https://dmu.freshservice.com/support/catalog/items/46

Overview Learn how to search the video library for a video and search inside a video. Panopto makes finding content easy by making all video content searchable including words spoken, words shown on screen, and words shown in slides. Prerequisites Viewer access to Panopto   1. Search the Library or a Folder 1.1.  Search for a keyword in the search bar at the top of the page. If you are in the Home or Everything area, the entire library will be searched. If you are in a folder, just that folder of videos will be searched (Fig. 1). Figure 1 Note:  When searching for multiple words a plus sign, or double quotes can be used to search for sessions that contain both of those words. Examples: Searching specific anatomy will search for any session that has either of those words. Searching "specific anatomy" or specific+anatomy will only show results that contain both of the words in the same session. 1.2.  Video search results will appear in the content area below (Fig. 2).   Figure 2 1.3.  You will see videos where the word you searched appears in the title. But you will also see results if the word was spoken, shown on screen, or shown in slides in a video (Fig. 3). You will see where in the video the word appears by looking in the search results below the video title.   Figure 3 1.4.  To play a video from the beginning, click on the title or image (Fig. 4).   Figure 4 1.5.  To play a video from where the keyword appears, click on one of the search results below the video title (Fig. 5). The video will open in a new tab and begin to play at that point where the word appeared.   Figure 5 2. Searching Inside a Video 2.1. In the video player, use the search bar on the left to search inside of the video (Fig. 6). Figure 6 2.2. Enter your search keyword and click the magnifying glass icon. All the search results for the video will appear and will be timestamped. Click on a search result to view that point in the video. The search bar will search the video and its related contents for your keyword (Fig. 7).   Figure 7 2.3. To the left of the search result is a small icon indicating how the keyword was conveyed. These icons represent when the keyword was conveyed through Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR), transcription, or a caption; Optical Character Recognition (OCR); slide content; discussion post or comment; notes; and bookmarks (Fig. 8). Note: ASR identifies words spoken in the video and OCR identifies words that appear in the video.    Figure 8 2.4. To narrow your search, choose Search All at the top of the results, and select a specific area to search (Fig. 9).    Figure 9 2.4. By default, the search results are shown in order of relevance, but you can also choose this option at the top of the results and instead show the results in time order (Fig. 10)   Figure 10
