Default Recording Folder in Panopto for Windows

Kevin Hartman

I don't think we can do this based on what I know and what others have told me, but is there a way to set a default folder to come up when a Creator opens Panopto for Windows? My experience has always been if you open Panopto for Windows, the chosen folder for recordings is either a course folder if you're in one, or your personal folder if you just open up the software.

I have an instructor insisting he records to Meeting Recordings as his "default folder". I don't know how he would have done that, but in viewing the recordings at the beginning when the software is still on screen, it does say the folder in Meeting Recordings.

Thank You.

@Kevin Hartman Yes, you can set the default recording folder for a user that is using Panopto for Windows by creating a user preset in the user's settings. Note that this will not work for Panopto Capture.

If you open up the recorder from the desktop, you would generally be directed to the last folder that you used to record - so that might be why he is getting the Meeting Recordings folder.
