Upload Content to an EchoVideo Library
EchoVideo provides employees and students at our Health Profession Schools (HPS) an alternative way to store and share video content. For example, you may want to upload a video or a presentation to your library to edit it or hold it until you are ready to publish it to a class, share it with another user, add it to a collection, or submit it for a homework assignment. Further benefits of using EchoVideo include:
- All videos uploaded to EchoVideo will automatically have a transcript and closed captioning applied.
- EchoVideo is integrated into Canvas, offering a streamlined menu to share content with course participants.
- Videos can be organized with other files into 'Collections' which can be securely shared with individuals.
- Currently, it offers unlimited storage space.
- It can hold various file formats, not just video files.

FAQ
How can I share EchoVideo content once it's in my library?
Are there any limitations surrounding uploads?
File Size Limits
EchoVideo imposes a 20GB file size limit for uploads. If uploading to EchoVideo from a location other than your local computer (i.e., Google Drive, Box, Dropbox, etc.), the FileStack uploader imposes a 220MB file size limit. If your file is larger than 220MB, download it to your local computer first, then upload it to EchoVideo. It must still be smaller than 20GB.
Exported Graphics in PDF Format are Not Supported
Some graphics programs will allow you to export or save a graphics file (.png, .jpg, .gif, etc.) as a .pdf file. While EchoVideo will recognize it as a PDF and allow you to upload it, media processing will fail.
