After uploading media, you can link directly to media that is in your current media library.  Follow these instructions, or view the animation below:

1. In Moodle, go to the “Add an activity or resource” section and choose the Panopto activity block. Click the “Select content” button.
2. Navigate to your content, and choose the content you want to embed in your course. Click the Insert button.
3. Click on either the “Save and return to course” or the “save and display” Moodle button.

Note: If you are trying to link to media from another media library that is not the current semester's media library, please contact its@reed.edu for assistance, as there may be sharing permissions that need to be adjusted.

You can also create and link to playlists or share a sub folder in Panopto.

Note: If you are sharing your video to anyone to view, be sure to adjust the share settings. If needed, contact its@reed.edu for assistance in adjusting these share settings. You will need the Creator role in Panopto to adjust share settings.
