Edit Closed Captions for Zoom Recordings in Panopto

Text Instructions

When Zoom recordings are saved to Panopto, they include Zoom's closed captions and will be set to automatically display. Because these captions are automatically generated, they will not be 100% accurate and will require editing.

  1. To access all content you have recorded or uploaded via Panopto, go to smith.hosted.panopto.com.

  2. Select Browse. Select the My Folders tab to display folders associated with your Moodle courses. Navigating into these folders will display videos uploaded or recorded to those folders.

  1. To begin captioning your video, locate the video from the appropriate folder. Hover your cursor over the video you wish to caption and select the Edit button.

  2. On the menu to the left, select the Captions option.

  3. The automatic captions will not be 100% accurate, so you will need to edit them. Select any block of text to begin editing those captions.

  4. When you are done editing captions, select Apply in the upper right menu.

  5. Pantopto will inform you that the changes have been applied, and ask you to close the editor. Select OK to close the editor and view the video, or select Cancel if you wish to continue working in the editor.
