1 Quick Guide Moving and Copying Panopto Sessions Moving a Panopto session allows you to move a session from one folder to another. Copying a Panopto session will duplicate a session in the same folder or another folder. Panopto only allows you to move and copy sessions into other folders for which you are a creator. These tasks can be completed with individual sessions or in bulk. NOTE: Moving and copying individual sessions can be done within ELMS using the alternative steps, but moving and copying in bulk has to be completed within capture.umd.edu. Moving and Copying Panopto Sessions Individually and in Bulk 1. Using the checkboxes located on the left of the sessions, check each recording that you would like to move or copy. You can also use the checkbox next to Sort by to select all sessions. 2. There are three additional buttons next to the Filter by date button - Delete, Copy, and Move. Move a. A window will appear that lists all of the sessions that will be moved. b. If you want to remove any of the sessions, hover over the name and click on the x that appears next to the session name. c.

5 1. Make sure you are logged into the recorder before recording. If not, you will not be able to upload your recording to one of your course folders. 2. Check to make sure that the video preview is showing and the sound bar is moving before beginning your recording. 3. When on a classroom computer or a different computer from which you created a PowerPoint presentation and you want to include that PowerPoint in your recording, open the PowerPoint file on the computer first. Save the file to the computer or storage device and use that file to record. This will avoid any processing errors. 4. Do not shut down the computer you recorded on until after the recording has been uploaded. Once it begins processing, then the computer can be logged off or shut down. 5. All sessions are by default only viewable by you and the students enrolled in the course. 6. When copying an ELMS course from one semester to another, Panopto sessions do not copy over. You will have to either copy and then move the copied sessions if you want the sessions to remain in the new and old courses or move the sessions if you only want the sessions to appear in the new course. 7. If you are using the URL for a session in either Modules or Pages in ELMS, then a course copy will retain the URL for the session. That URL will point to the original course, which students in the new course will not have access to see. After copying/moving or moving a session to the new course, you can either update the URL in Modules or Pages or make the session public (anyone on the internet or anyone who can sign into this site) to make the session accessible no matter what course you are currently teaching.
