Follow the steps below, to upload video content created outside of Echo360.

Please note that this is distinct from capturing videos directly in the Echo360 system using Lecture Capture or Universal Capture.

• Upload content directly to an Echo360 Module space
• Upload content into your Echo360 Content Library
  
  • Using the Echo360 app
  • Making uploaded videos available for students
    • Publishing the uploaded video to a module
    • Sharing a link or embed code

Echo360 have recommended that videos created externally to Echo360 (for example from a Narrated Powerpoint) are checked before uploading e.g. using handbrake.fr (See also Convert videos to H.264 MP4 with HandBrake on the SiteBuilder support pages) in order to reduce the risk of creating audio issues.

Upload content directly to an Echo360 Module space

1. Log in to Echo360 via Moodle by clicking on the Lecture Capture block in the Moodle Module space (to add the Echo360 block, see our Share your Echo360 recordings guide)
2. Click on New Class, located at the top of the page.
3. Name your class appropriately and click OK. The class will appear in the list.
4. Click on the blue square with a plus on it. Hover your mouse over this and click Add video.
5. Drag and drop a file or navigate to the file on your device or from a cloud storage solution. You can also import (make a copy) of items in your library.
6. Click Upload once the file(s) has been selected. A bar under the file will show you the upload progress.
7. Once the upload has completed a window will display a message that the file is now available in the Echo360 Section. It will take some time to process the upload before it is available to watch or edit.

Upload content into your Echo360 Content Library

Your Library is a private area in Echo360 where you can see all the videos you have access to. It is also where you can upload videos before sharing them with students.

1. Log in to Echo360 either directly if you have created a password for it, or via Moodle by clicking on the Lecture Capture block in any Moodle space where it has been added (to add the Echo360 block, see our Share your Echo360 recordings guide)
2. Click on the blue Create button, located at the top of the page.
3. Select Upload media from the dropdown.
4. Drag and drop a file or navigate to the file on your device or from a cloud storage solution.
5. Click Upload once the file(s) has been selected. A bar under the file will show you the upload progress.
6. Once the upload has completed a window will display a message that the file is now available in your library. It will take some time to process the upload before it is available to watch or edit.

Using the Echo360 app

If you want to upload content that is on a mobile device, perhaps because you used it to record video, you can use the Echo360 app to upload it. It is available for the following devices:

Android app	Download the app from the Play Store
iOS app	Download the app from the Apple Store
Windows Mobile app	Download the app from the Microsoft Store
Amazon Kindle	Download the app from the Kindle Store

1. Tap the Echo360 App on your mobile device.
2. Enter your full University email address i.e. j.blogger@warwick.ac.uk and click Submit.
3. Select University of Warwick as the institution from the drop-down list.
4. Enter your password.
   • If this is the first time you have logged in to Echo360 directly, you will need to set your password. Click on the Forgot your password? Click here to reset link. You will receive an email sent to your University email address. Follow the instructions in the email. Do not use the same password as you use to log in to University systems.
5. Follow the instructions in Echo360's guide to Uploading Videos through the Mobile App.

Making uploaded videos available for students

Now that the file is in your library there are a few ways to make a video available to students depending on your requirements and how you use Echo360/Moodle.

• Publishing to a module - This will enable it to be accessible via the Lecture Capture block in the module's Moodle space.
• Share a link or embed code - If you are only looking to share a single video you may want to do this via an individual link or embed code from the video in your library. This method can be applied to sharing videos in various locations including Moodle.

2. Click Share.
