Overview

Panopto is where you'll store your video content. Once your videos are in Panopto, you'll be able to embed them into your myLearning course, like onto pages.

This resource uses Panopto via the Recordings link and the Canvas rich content editor.

How to upload videos to Panopto

All video content for your course should be stored in Panopto. If you've recorded your videos outside of Panopto, that means you'll need to upload them into Panopto. Work through the presentation below to learn how to upload videos into Panopto.

Select the expand button to open in full-screen or open in a new tab if not loading. Follow the navigational cues in the presentation to move between pages.

Important!

Videos uploaded to/created using Panopto will have chapters/tables of contents applied that allow learners to jump to different segments of the video. These are automatically generated, so you need to ensure they are correct or removed (see our page on editing videos).

How to embed videos using Panopto

To share your video content with your learners, you'll need to embed them into your course. You can do this via the Panopto menu in the Canvas rich content editor (which is what you use to edit pages). Simply open your page in edit mode then follow the steps outlined in the presentation below.

Select the expand button to open in full-screen or open in a new tab if not loading. Follow the navigational cues in the presentation to move between pages.

Important!

You should only embed Panopto videos via the rich content editor. DO NOT embed your videos using embed links generated within Panopto as these videos embedded this way will frequently appear inaccessible in myLearning to you and your learners.

Alternative access methods

Uploading videos is the same between both the Recordings tab and Panopto website access points. For support launching from the Canvas rich content editor, refer to Panopto's vendor resources.

The Panopto website and the Recordings link cannot be used to directly embed videos into myLearning. It is not recommended that you generate video embed links from these locations as videos added to pages via embed links will not have the correct theming apply.
