EchoVideo Overview
EchoVideo is available to the Health Profession Schools and is the adopted solution for managing scheduled lecture captures in academic classrooms. Usage varies by school but often includes submitting a request to a campus contact for scheduling. EchoVideo also offers a complete video management solution, allowing instructors to create, store, and share video content. Engagement tools allow students to flag confusion points, take notes, and post questions for discussion. Instructors can assess students with integrated polling within their videos and upload related slide decks.

EchoVideo FAQ
Why does my video not have audio?
There may be a problem with your recording space or device. Contact your campus technology specialist or the Help Desk.
Why is the wrong screen being recorded in my capture?
It seems there are a couple of potential issues causing this:
- For personal captures, it's possible the wrong input source was selected.
- For scheduled captures, there might be a problem with the default settings in your classroom, or the recording software itself may not be functioning correctly.
