Panopto Media Library

In an effort to simplify and streamline video sharing within Cal Poly Humboldt, the Google Media Library will become integrated into Panopto. None of the existing video links will change, but when you click on the video link, you will now watch the movie in the Panopto viewer. This semester we will be changing the url to each video, therefore as we work through this process, some might be viewed through Google, while others will be viewed through the Panopto player. At the completion of this conversion you will be able to access the entire video library through Panopto. During this process you can continue to share the videos from the Canvas Media Library or the Google Media Library without interruption.
