Uploading Videos Created Outside of Panopto

Panopto supports many video file formats, including AVI, MP4, MPG, WMV, MOV, QT, ASF, 3GP, WMA, MP3, M4V.

If your videos are not already in Panopto, go to the folder where you want your videos and upload them.
For a quick tutorial, please watch:

Editing Videos

Panopto's editor is non-destructive, so you can add back content you edited out as needed. 

Sharing Videos

Videos created from the Panopto Video area in a Canvas course will be viewable by the students in your class if they click on Panopto Video in the Canvas course or if the video has been embedded or linked correctly in the course. Please follow the steps below to embed or link your videos in your Canvas course.

Videos created in your personal folder in Panopto are private by default, but can be shared by changing your sharing settings for the video.

Video Quizzing

Did you know you can add a quiz to videos created outside of Panopto as well as those created with the product?
You can also turn a video quiz into a Canvas Assignment with Gradebook scoring.
