Splitting a Panopto recording
Panopto allows you to split your finished recordings, allowing you to break your lectures into segments
This guide will demonstrate how to split a recording using a copying technique
The original recording will form 'Part A' and the copy will form 'Part B'
'Splitting a Panopto recording' step-by-step guide:
1. Create a 'full' copy (or as many as needed) of the recording. Hover over the thumbnail of the recording you want to copy and click the settings cog/gear icon:
2. On the new window that opens, select Manage from the left-hand menu and locate the 'Copy video' section.
- Use the drop-down menu to select the folder you wish to copy to. Once a folder has been selected, click the blue Create Full Copy text button and close the window
Copy session tips
- It is best to use the same folder you are copying from to easier keep track of the recordings
- You can change the new copy's name, at the point of creating the full copy, but Panopto will automatically add the suffix '(copy)' to the new copy's title
- Copied recordings can take a couple of minutes to reprocess
3. Hover your cursor over the thumbnail of the original recording, click the ellipsis (3 vertical dots) and choose Edit:
4. In the editor, grey out the second half of the recording using the scissor tool. This will become 'Part A'.
NB. There is a refresher video-guide on 'How to use the Panopto online editor' at the bottom of this page
- Once you have isolated the section you wish to form 'Part A', click Apply and close the editor
5. Open the copy you made earlier, in the editor. This will become 'Part B'. Grey out the first half of the recording, click Apply and close the editor:
6. Allow the copies to process.
