Record and Post to a Video Discussion using Panopto (How-to)

Record and Insert Your Video

Follow these steps to access the video recorder directly from the discussion and insert your recording:

  1. On the Discussion page, click inside the ‘post’ box to access the “Content editor.”
  2. From the content editor, select the “Insert content” button (far right ‘plus’ icon).
  3. In the menu that opens, choose “Content Market.”
  4. After the “Content Market” opens, select “Panopto Video Student Submission.”
  5. On the “Panopto Video Student Submission” page, three options are available. “Choose,” “Upload,” and “Record.” Select “Record.”
    • Note: If you recorded your video using other software, choose “Upload” to add your recorded video instead.
  6. Type the name of your video in the "Name your recording" box.
    • Note: Check the discussion instructions for your instructor's required/preferred naming convention.
  7. Select “Launch Capture” to record with Panopto Capture.
    • Note: If asked, be sure to allow Panopto to access your camera and microphone.
  8. Check the "Audio," "Video," "Screen and Apps," and the 'settings' (gear icon) to ensure your recording is set up correctly and the right content will be captured.
  9. Click the red circle (record button) to begin recording.
  10. When finished, click the red square (stop button) to stop the recording.
  11. In the same Panopto window (black container), the recorded video will process. After processing is complete, it is recommended that you preview the video from the mini-player located on this page. If you are happy with the video that you recorded, close this window/tab. Do NOT close this tab until your video is done processing.
    • Note: If you would like to re-record, select "Redo."
  12. Back on the "Panopto Video Student Submission" page, click "Insert."
  13. A pop-up window will appear, prompting you to confirm the name that will display in the assignment submission. After you have confirmed the name, click “Insert.”
  14. Your video will appear in the text editor window. You may add text as needed and then select "Post.”
