Panopto media system

In Summer 2022, Ensemble Video was discontinued, and ÈËÆÞÓÕ»ó moved to Panopto for managing media. Panopto provides all the functionality users have found in Ensemble, plus additional tools and a more user-friendly interface. All media stored on Ensemble has been moved to Panopto in Summer 2022.

Users can add media to Panopto either through the Panopto recording options, a Moodle course that has a corresponding Panopto media library, or by accessing Panopto at ; choose the "ÈËÆÞÓÕ»ó College login" dropdown choice when choosing the latter option.

Before using Panopto, please request a media library for your course or administrative office.
