Mediasite: Staff Guides
Mediasite moved to read-only on the 15th June as part of the wider rollout of Panopto. You can find more information on the change from Mediasite to Panopto, and answers to frequently asked questions on the Panopto FAQ page.
Mediasite allows you to record, edit and share digital content. Mediasite can automatically record taught sessions if they have been set up on the University timetable, but you can also record ad-hoc sessions in teaching spaces, screencasts or upload video and audio files.

Managing your Mediasite content
Request a change to the owner of a lecture capture/Mediasite recording
Mediasite recordings, including lecture capture content can only be owned by one person within the University. Where ownership needs to be transferred (e.g. wrong owner, staff leaving, changing roles etc.), please refer to the Request a change to the owner of a Mediasite/lecture capture recording article on the IT website (this link will take you there).
Depending on the school you belong to, the process to request a change of ownership differs, this article provides you with guidance on how to request a change.
