EchoVideo

Are there plans to use generative AI prompts to create short videos, develop a script, suggestions of tone adjustment, organize long lectures into shorter segments, etc. We have many faculty that have been leveraging GenAI in their teaching and are inquiring if EchoVideo will have these options? See this Educause article below it is an informative read. https://er.educause.edu/articles/2025/6/leveraging-genai-to-transform-a-traditional-instructional-video-into-engaging-short-video-lectures?utm_source=Selligent&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=er_content_alert_newsletter&utm_content=6-18-25&utm_term=EDUCAUSE+Membership_&m_i=12faKaLCbfRhODbfuQzJLf8X1hpTuFP675NLzz24NpXTELebx60To8Xm1Yl5LmglAZcro6tXA5sDSawRO4Aj89Jb2yrLazf11K&M_BT=96076895737 I also posted the same here: https://eplcommunity.echo360.com/ :-)

While users can set a Start Time and Date, students are able to access Sessions at any time. Sessions therefore cannot be created and made unavailable. In line with the behavior of other Echo media, users should be able to designate availability for Sessions.

Our team works frequently between Echo and Canvas. Whenever we access Canvas and then access Echo, our admin role is demoted to instructor. This is cumbersome to have to always promote to admin after working in Canvas.

We would like to be able to utilise Amazon Transcribe's custom vocabulary function to add new words to the ASR transcription vocab. This would be particularly useful for adding important words from indigenous languages, to help foster inclusivity

It would be very helpful for sections with many many recordings for the calendar widget to 'float' above the page and be held in the visible area given there's room allocated for it - it would then remain visible when checking later class schedules

Epiphan markets itself as capture software agnostic and would like to request an Epiphan integration with EchoVideo

We should change "Analytics" in the Folders to say "Folder Analytics". While in the LMS there is an LTI link to "Course Analytics". Having 2 "Analytics" in the same LMS course that show different data is confusing. If the folder analytics were labelled folder analytics this would be clearer.

When testing 360 degree video within Echovideo, the aspect ratio of the video seems to be quite pixelated and distorted (see attached comparison with YT). Also, the watermark doesn't show correctly as it is part of the 360 video.

Currently, once content has been added to a Session, it cannot be removed. You can however overwrite content by selecting a new media file in your library and sharing it to the same Session. We believe this design to be counter-intuitive as content (Media, Presentation) should be able to be removed from Sessions.

Our previous video platform processed/rendered videos quite quickly. Echo360 seems to take about as long to process and be available for viewing as the video is in duration. Is there a way that processing time can be shortened?
