Upload pre-recorded video or audio to Panopto

If your files are larger than 1GB, consider compressing the video before uploading it.

• From Canvas, navigate to Panopto Video.
• Select the folder to upload to or create a new one; use meaningful names for ease of navigation.
• Click the Create button and select Upload media.

• Wait for Panopto to process the file. It will appear in your folder.

Embed the video into Canvas

Now that you have uploaded a video to Panopto, students can access it from the Panopto Video tab. Alternatively, you can embed it into Canvas wherever there is a rich text editor, e.g. Announcements, Assignments, Pages, etc.

• Click the Panopto icon from the rich text editor toolbar.

• If necessary, browse to the correct folder using the drop-down list.
• Select the video and click Insert. The video will appear on the page.
