5 years of frustratingly bad Panopto recordings I have studied at Aarhus University for 5 years which uses Panopto and for all 5 years at least 1/3 of the recordings were ruined by the camera focusing on the corner of the room, the sound not working, the recording cutting out or the powerpoint show going black. It has been an extremely frustrating experience!

If you want easy to use video capture If you want easy to use video capture, I would recommend Panopto. It is very flexible and most people will be up and recording with only a few minutes of training. I haven't found a usb mic or camera device that Panopto doesn't support.

Panopto is transforming teaching and learning Panopo means we are able to record, edit and share easily ... from anywhere and for everyone both teachers and students. It's helping to engage students in learning, widening participation by increasing flexible learning opportunities, enabling innovation with video in learning and teaching.

Panopto has been a rock solid addition… Panopto has been a rock solid addition to our LMS for years. It makes lecture capture a breeze.

Whatever update has recently occurred… Whatever update has recently occurred has made Panopto a wretched means of watching lectures during live webcast as well as recordings. The audio cuts in and out, rendering viewing useless. This is an issue not only for students trying to return to a lecture for review but especially for students who are sick and cannot attend lecture in person. We have resorted to zoom recording, which is also not ideal because of how our auditorium is set up, but at least allows us to hear what is being taught. I reached out to our school's IT and they said it related to Panopto. When I emailed Panopto, they redirected my complaint to our school's IT department without so much as reading or responding to my concerns. Apparently I have no means of getting this issue resolved.
