Publishing recordings
Choosing a recording for publication to Lectopia
You can select a recording for publication in one of two ways:
- In the My Recordings view of the Application, by selecting the recording in the list and by clicking Publish Recording.
- In the View/Edit screen, after editing or viewing the recording, publish by clicking the Publish Recording button.
Clicking Publish will first apply any edits and then open a window asking you to login to Lectopia.
To publish a recording you will need to login to Lectopia with your active directory credentials.
Once you have logged in, select your Lectopia resources unit from the list. You will only see subjects to which you have access.
A Resources subject is automatically created within Lectopia for each LMS Subject. They can be identified by the “Resources” suffix in the Lectopia Unit name. These subjects may be used to provide your students with access to additional audio and video resources within your LMS Subject space, without interfering with automated lecture recordings.
Create a new lecture
Choosing the option to Create new lecture will ask you to specify a New Lecture Date and Time. This is the recommended option. Once these details have been provided click Next.
Upload to existing lecture
If you choose to Upload to existing lecture, Lectopia will return a list of all schedules for the course with a status of 'scheduled' only (i.e. no 'available' published unit recordings will be displayed, so they can't be overwritten).
Choosing to upload to an existing/scheduled recording will place your recording in the scheduled or automated lecture recording space and henceforth occupy this space with your personal capture recording. To select this option choose your scheduled recording from the list and then click Next.
Note: CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN NOT TO UPLOAD YOUR RECORDING INTO A SCHEDULED LECTURE RECORDING THAT IS INTENDED FOR A FUTURE IN-VENUE RECORDING.
Lecture title
You may edit your recording details at this window by entering information in the relevant fields. Select Publish when you have finished entering your details. Your recording will now begin to upload
When this process has finished, the recording list will update and display as 'Published'.
Once you have published your recording you will be able to manage your recording by logging in to the Lectopia staff tool.
Your recording will not be available to your students until you have created a Lectopia link from within your LMS subject. You can do this by following the instructions on the Creating a Lectopia link page.
A video taking you through this process is also available.
