EchoVideo

Each year the learning technologists and programme admin staff have to delete the old Echo360 section links and replace them with ones for the new academic year. Development to automate this would save our institution approx 20 hours' worth of resource doing this for c. 1000 modules.

Accurate user viewing and media engagement analytics within EchoVideo are increasing important to instructors, administrators and institutions - and therefore to the students who they're tracking. Ad blockers are becoming more widely used by the student cohort, and we understand that these can sometimes result in data being blocked, so the viewing/engagement data being captured isn't always 100% accurate. It would be great if EchoVideo could detect when an ad blocker is enabled and warn the viewer that this might result in their interactions not being tracked and share with them how to disable ad blockers for EchoVideo.

Currently, students click through the Q-Review sections on our LMS in order to gain access to the sections' recordings. Some assume that doing this for one module will enable them to have access to others' recordings which they are enrolled on - however they need to click through on each in order to gain access. An integration with the student record system would allow all users the ability to gain access to those which they should be able to access directly via Echo360. Currently, should a student change modules, they retain access to the recordings (both past and future) for that section. An integration with the student records system could allow this access to be updated as these module changes take place, ensuring robustness of copyright compliance and that those who require access, have it.

A good majority of our faculty are embedding their media and are finding it difficult to locate the media names in the table grid. It would be great if a search bar were added and the ability to sort the column of data in Ascending or Descending order like you can in Section Analytics. Please see the sample image.

We would like the ability to switch sources AFTER a scheduled recording has started. It's really a pain when the system grabs the wrong camera.

We would like to have a notice or callout pop up when folders are enabled in the production environment of Echovideo to ensure our faculty know that it is an enhancement and no action is needed by them - and direct them to come to the Echo admin team on campus with questions. This will allow us to provide proper messaging, set the timing and provide training that coincides with our needs.

The previous MDP (Media Details Page) contained 3 clickable IDs that would add each ID to your clipboard once clicked: Capture device MAC Capture ID Media ID In the new MDP, there is only the Capture ID and the Media ID. Please add the MAC address back to the new MDP.

As an Admin using the reporting API, I need to be able to generate reports that include information about which LMS integration the viewing is coming from. This is required because we have multiple LMS instances (as an example, one LMS is for undergrads and the other is for postgrads) Today the viewsessions and viewsessions details reports an "lmsCourseName" column, but that is not enough. We need to know exactly which link/LMS instance (LMS host URL) the views came from.

Add a call out box to display on your screen that learners would see once playable media has reached the end. A sample image is attached. The idea represented itself as I was finishing our campus security training. I think it could address any students that may try to skip ahead and not watch the video in its entirety. Thus, making them go back to watch the video.

In regard to the userway widget as I mentioned the media icon is hard to see and sometimes not seen at all depending on selection. I provided sample images. On the Classes list page Contrast + Invert Colors – I can see the class media icon by default and with a hover. Dark Contrast – I cannot see the class media icon its outlined and filled in black, if I hover the icon it appears. Light Contrast – I can see the class media icon by default but hovering the icon its very faint.
