Collaborate
Recordings
& Panopto

Moving to
panopto

Blackboard Collaborate recordings are gradually being moved to Panopto.

Recordings done in 2018, 2019 and 2020 are already on Panopto; those made in 2021 and the academic year ending July 2022 are in the process of being transferred.

From September 2022 all new recordings will automatically be moved to their respective module folder on Panopto. In most cases this should happen within 48 hours but it can take up to 7 days.

From October 2022 a copy of the recording will remain on Collaborate until the end of the semester, after that, they will be deleted. Recordings made before October 2022 are deleted from Collaborate once they are successfully moved to Panopto

The benefits of moving to Panopto

Improved accessibility - Panopto uses automatic speech recognition to add captions to the recordings.

Editing - the Panopto editor can be used to trim or cut part of the recording.

Search – every spoken word as well as words on the screen or within slides is indexed by Panopto which helps to find information inside videos instantly.
