All our folders are provisioned by the LMS site. We use either Remote Recorder Schedules or Zoom integration to get content into Panopto folder for the course. Some instructors want the same course recordings to post into 2 different Folders, which you currently cannot do.

We receive numerous reports from our instructors about students being able to view each other's videos in their Assignment folders. In reality, what's occurring is that students are either relocating or directly uploading their submissions to the Student Submissions folder instead of the Assignment folder. This is a simple error, but it would be highly beneficial if only the creator had the ability to move content to the Student Submissions folder, ensuring that students upload their work to the correct Assignment folder.

In the recorder or in the editor - please add the ability to choose what recording source to place in each section of the web player. Normally, the presenter video goes in the top left smaller area and the screen capture goes in the right larger area in the player. We need to have the ability to select what video to put where. Sometimes, like in out Business Communication classes, the teachers want the presenter video to be in the larger area and the screen capture in the smaller area. Conversely, in the Video podcast, this feature will allow for the presenter video to shown in full screen and the screen capture to show in the smaller PIP screen in the bottom right.

Currently the only way to do this is to manually download both streams and create a new session and place the videos like i am requesting. Then, after processing, set the Video podcast to PIP to match what i am requesting. This is time consuming and inefficient.

Maybe you only need to have a feature in the video editor or in Settings window to "Swap video sources in player" that will automatically do this! That will be cool and quick for the end user! I think Panopto already knows how to do this, just need to automated!

Please do this asap. thanks.

The option to include more than just Youtube feeds through the editor, e.g. Vimeo.com, TED, etc. would be very welcome.

Dear Panopto team,

I am a great fan of the quiz feature for videos as it allows for interactivity between the lesson and the students. What I would love to see is an 'open ended' question type where viewers can respond with there own answers (possibly limited to n characters if necessary). This would open the door to deeper feedback from viewers who could express their thoughts on a topic, share experiences related to a subject, and give their opinions on new material.

Many thanks,

Patrick

We need "Pause" button during recording recording a video feed with Panopto Capture for Chrome Browser.

Dear Panopto Team, there is a need for a integrated sollution for Digital Agreement for Open Publishing of Videos. Many institutions, has rules for signing an agreement before publishing content outside of login service.

The feature involves implementing a digital agreement process for users who wish to publish their videos openly without requiring a password or login. This will help ensure that users have the necessary rights to the content and have obtained consent from all participants before making the video available to the public.

Feature Overview:

1. When a user attempts to set a video for open publishing, prompt them with a digital agreement. This agreement will require the user to confirm that they have the rights to all content used in the video and have obtained consent from all participants.
2. Allow the user to read and digitally sign the agreement before granting them the ability to publish the video openly.
3. Implement a function on the Panopto platform to trigger the digital agreement prompt when a user selects open publishing.
4. Provide integration options for the digital agreement, either as an internal Panopto function or through third-party services with API, such as Google Forms.
5. Maintain a list of all videos that have signed digital agreements, allowing administrators to keep track of them.
6. Enable users to request co-signatures from other users if there are multiple owners or contributors to the video.

We believe this feature will enhance the user experience and help organizations maintain compliance with copyright and privacy regulations. We appreciate your attention to this request and look forward to seeing this feature implemented on the Panopto platform.

Here is an example agreement from NTNU: (Agreement to make video material accessible on Internet)

Thank you for your consideration.

The Windows or Mac recorder should be able to allow the end user to select just a "region" of the screen to capture, instead of the entire screen. Sometimes, we just want to capture an specific program window, and not the entire screen as this could be very distracting for the viewers.

If I had more votes I would add them. Just got a request for this today from a customer already familiar with Camtasia/ScreenFlow. All I could do was recommend "possibly" using a secondary screen and moving his app window to that one and then only on a Windows PC. https://support.panopto.com/s/article/Use-Multiple-Monitors-for-Screen-Capture-for-Windows

Hi Carlos - Thanks for posting! We are hoping to add this in the first half of next year. We will keep you posted!

I'd really like a "Save as" option in the editor. As things work right now, if I want to split up a recording I first have to create a copy, then do the appropriate edits to each copy. Not a very convenient workflow.

Hi,

We regularly experience that videos are recorded at a low volume. Our students often have recordings from different teachers with varying volume levels. Many students watch the videos on the train, bus, cafe, or in the common areas on campus, where there is often background noise.

I know there is a normalization feature in Panopto, but as far as I know, it only helps equalize sound levels if there are very high and very low levels in the same recording. On the other hand, it does not help if the entire recording is at a low sound volume.

I want the ability to turn up the volume like you can in many editing programs. This can possibly be done in the editor with a rotary knob, a dropdown menu, or based on a predefined level that Panopto sets for all videos (so that all videos in Panopto can be set to have the same sound level).

Thanks!
