Re: FR-5179: Improve Interface to make it easier to identify which session the grading tool is linked to
I think this would be helpful both for quizzes, but also for LTI placements in Modules, Pages, etc. It's very difficult (if not impossible in a lot of cases) to track this down manually.
Re: Additional endpoints of "RemoteRecorder" API?
Having gone down this road myself, they won't give you the key.
Caption and audio description reports
We want to be able to track the number of recordings with captions and audio descriptions and see how it changes over time. The API/report should include the origin of the captions: vendor manual captioning, vendor AI captioning, manual captioning, auto captioning, or uploaded captions. We also want to know if the captions have been edited and see which recordings have audio descriptions.
Re: The Everything menu
It looks like, without Dave, @Panopto or @support . . . may not be doing status updates on this one…

Re: Grey out or hide Variable Speed Playback button when it is disabled
If the button appears to function, visually or otherwise, but does not, then this may be an accessibility/usability issue. I'm upvoting for this reason.
Re: Low latency / WebRTC for webstreaming
I remember there was a proof of concept for a WebRTC streaming solution in the Panopto Capture recorder, but it was fairly short lived from what I remember. Honestly, I don't see them trying it again, but I'd love to see a low-latency option. Our use of webcasts is very limited because it is difficult to get captions on, the long latency, and the lack of audience interaction options. If there was a better way to consume a Q&A/reactions, had a bit better latency, and we had an option to POST captions (similar to YouTube), I could see webcasts being used a lot more.
A little more description in the Swagger doc?
This may be a feature request, or not? I guess it's just a suggestion from me.
Don't mean to pressurise/blaming anyone but I feel that the API dev team could put in a little more work in the Panopto Public API documentation page to make the Swagger doc a little more helpful for newbie like me.
Adding things such as adding some longer descriptions to each endpoint, explanations to some of the key parameters, required format of certain parameters, samples of the response, etc.
Re: Default Content Retention Policy for Assignment Folders
In the UK at least, the Office for Students retention guidance is 5 year retention for digital media in assessment. A global Assessment folder setting would be appropriate.
Re: SOAP API generating faults in PHP
The change from ?wsdl to ?singlewsdl appears to have resolved the issue. With the nature of this issue being inconsistent I'm reluctant to say it's fully resolved until we have time to monitor the code change for a while. But we implemented the code change and our next 3 scheduled runs were error-free. So that's a step in the right direction.
