How to download a Panopto video

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) > > How to download a Panopto video

If for any reason you need to download a panopto video you can do so.

Our settings default to only creators (you or your colleagues on the module) have the ability to download a video. This is true unless you deliberately chose to change this yourself.

Go into the video which you wish to download. (Again, it must be a video you have access to, your own, or a colleagues in the same module area)

And click on the download button.

Please note: that if you have a typical Panopto-style video (of yourself as well as a screen-capture of a powerpoint, or equivalent) the download will be a video of your Screen-capture with your face in the lower-right of the video. This resembles the video in an embedded Study Materials area. The file you download will not have a separate ‘talking head’ video from the ‘screencapture’ video, but rather be all one file.
