    1. Improved Proctoring Workflow of Third-Party Tools Across all LMSs 
      Previously, we presented Canvas users with the option to monitor third-party assessments using Verity. To improve the process, we now offer an integrated system within the Verity LTI app, which allows users to seamlessly add assessments and apply proctor settings to ensure a secure environment. This approach enables all Learning Management Systems supported by Verity to benefit from its comprehensive monitoring capabilities during students’ assessments for virtually any third-party tool. To learn how to use this feature, please visit our guide on Creating a Proctored Third-Party Assessment with YuJa Verity.

These videos have been specifically designed to assist first-time students in effortlessly navigating the Verity authentication process.

    Software Capture for Apple – Update v7.2.0 Released to US, CAN, AU, and EU Zones

    Australia Zone Canada Zone European Union Zone United States Zone

    We have successfully pushed an update for Software Capture for Apple to all instances residing in the US, Canada, Australia, and the European Union. This update provides our users with the option to perform software updates, select multiple locations to publish recordings, publish recordings into their Internal Library, create shared profiles, view new version updates for the Software Capture application, set storage capacity thresholds for recordings, and in-depth audit tracking for recordings. 

    1. Integrated “New Version” Notification with Integrated Software Update Capability
      To provide users with a streamlined workflow for obtaining the most up-to-date version of the Software Capture application, we have implemented a built-in update tool that mirrors the capability already available with the PC version. The update tool will allow Content Creators to receive notifications of a new version and download the latest version of the Software Capture application directly from the main window. Simply select the “Update Available” button to download the latest version.
    2. Publish Recordings into Multiple Channels
      Mirroring our Software Capture for PC application, Content Creators may now publish recordings to multiple channels simultaneously by taking advantage of our tree-structured layout. Use the search filter feature to easily navigate an organized list of channels and subchannels in alphabetical order. Once all desired locations have been added to the publication list, simply begin recording.

    3. Publish Recordings to the Internal Library / CampusTube
      With the introduction of publishing Software Capture recordings to the Internal Library, we have now deployed full publishing capabilities within the Video Platform. Content Creators can effortlessly add their desired locations to the list of selected channels, facilitating instant uploads of their recordings.
    4. Create Profiles to Share with Internal Users
      Content Creators that require profiles to be set across multiple devices can now conveniently create Shared Profiles. These profiles can be accessed across their institution, allowing their preferred settings to be applied immediately for automated or manual recordings. To learn how to create a Default Shared Profile, please visit our guide on Creating Profiles in the Software Capture for Apple application.
    5. Customizable Low-Disk Space Warning
      To ensure that Content Creators have the appropriate disk space required for recordings, we have implemented a monitoring system that tracks the storage capacity of their device. The monitoring system can be customized by selecting the threshold of when Content Creators would like to be notified for insufficient disk space.
    6. In-Depth Audit Tracking for Recording Events
      The new version of Software Capture for Apple provides audit logging of actions when using the application. This will make it possible to review and trace over 100 individual recording events and actions such as user login, dynamic source switching, profile selection, and much more. From a practical standpoint, the inclusion of these logs provides administrators support in identifying potential challenges encountered during recordings. By using this resource, we hope to help administrators troubleshoot recordings in a timely manner.
    7. Accessible Keyboard Navigation
      The Software Capture application is committed to ensuring accessibility for all Content Creators. To facilitate a more inclusive user experience, Content Creators now have the ability to utilize the Tab and Spacebar keys for navigating and selecting menu items, system settings, and recording options. By incorporating these keyboard functionalities, we strive to provide a seamless and intuitive experience, enabling Content Creators of all levels to navigate and utilize the application’s features effortlessly.

    YuJa Enterprise Video Platform Update – “Willow Tree” Released to CAN, AU and EU Zones

    Australia Zone Canada Zone European Union Zone YuJa Enterprise Video Platform

    We have successfully pushed an update to all Enterprise Video Platform instances residing in Canada, Australia, and the European Union. This release provides our users with several updates. Highlights include: “no cookies” LTI implementation, integrating hierarchical accounts into the Video Platform, the YuJa app for Microsoft Teams, importing audio clips to the Video Editor, creating custom playlists, improved functionality for consent forms, and so much more. This update will be released to US zones next Friday.  

    1. Look, ‘Ma, No Cookies! Deeper Implementation of New 1EdTech Protocol That Eliminates the Need for Third-Party Cookies
      The Video Platform has a long-standing, IMS-certified implementation of the LTI 1.3 / LTI Advantage protocol with both LTI 1.3 Core, LTI Advantage Deep Linking, and IMS Caliper. Until recently, these protocols relied on third-party cookies for a security handshake with integrated tools. With 1EdTech’s release of an enhanced protocol, we are now able to eliminate the need for third-party cookies.The YuJa Enterprise Video Platform is the first LMS-integrated video solution to no longer require cookies. This simplifies product use particularly on Apple-based products – such as iOS devices and Safari – which often disable third-party cookies by default. To enhance the privacy and security of institutions, users can now access the Video Platform from within their LMS without enabling third-party cookies.
      No Cookie Symbol
    2. Launching Umbrella System Infrastructure for Distributed Administration of Multi-Tenant College Systems
      To support our partner system and state-level institutions who often have centrally managed IT with distributed college-level sub-administration, we are rolling out multi-tenant capabilities within the context of a single, large Video Platform instance. These capabilities will allow Super Admins to centrally manage a state or system-level deployment while offering Sub-Admins at the individual college level with management capabilities of their individual colleges.The Umbrella System architecture is aligned to a multi-release product roadmap that will be done in consultation with partners who are actively adopting this model. In this release, we are introducing Umbrella System infrastructure for Blackboard Nodes and D2L Brightspace Org Units to be able to provision courses, users, and devices into the correct hierarchical element using existing attributes from upstream infrastructure (LMS, SIS, SSO).
      The Video Platform's Organization tab features a hierarchical viewing of sub-accounts.
    3. New Client-Side Microsoft Teams App Available in Microsoft App Store
      We have created a streamlined video-sharing workflow between Microsoft Teams and the Video Platform that complements our existing server-side Microsoft Teams API-level integration. This new approach provides greater flexibility to institutions in managing imports compared to our existing integration, which restricts the setup of Teams recordings imports to group administrators on behalf of users.Whether institutions want this increased flexibility or prefer administrators to control imports, the Video Platform will enable them to select the integration that best suits their needs. With the new YuJa app available in the Microsoft Teams App Store, Content Creators can view a list of recordings and choose whether they would like to manually or automatically import their recordings to the Video Platform. To learn more about the new YuJa app, please visit our guide on How to Use the YuJa App for Microsoft Teams.
      The YuJa app is featured within Microsoft Teams. The app features a table with a list of recordings, and options to automatically or manually sync recordings.
    4. The Video Editor Now Offers the Ability to Import Audio-Only Files into Multi-Stream Videos
      Content Creators can now import audio files into single and multi-streams videos to add audio excerpts, soundtracks, and more.
      The Video Editor's insert video option showcasing MP3 files that can be added.
    5. New Customized Playlist Creation Tool
      The Video Platform has always supported the ability to associate related content into sequential, course-linked Media Channels; however, an increasing need to provide the ability to associate non-course content into sequential playlists led to the introduction of Playlists.Now available from the My Media Navigation Bar, Content Creators can create a custom playlist by adding and rearranging media content in any sequence they desire. Once a playlist has been created, it may then be directly linked or embedded for viewing on any desired website. Future updates will enhance the Playlist feature to provide custom branding, the option to publish playlists to courses, and more.
      The Add to Playlist window featuring Playlists users can select to insert media into.
    6. Create a Personalized List of Related Media Content
      We have expanded the options for Content Creators to personalize and curate the viewing experience of users on the Video Platform. When viewing media content, users can now be presented with a carefully chosen list of related media by the Content Creator. This enhancement allows Content Creators to have greater control over their environment, ensuring that every piece of media contributes to the overall learning experience.
      Two images are shown with an arrow in between them. The first image showcases the Media Details Branding tab to add custom media assets. The second image features the assets in the Related Videos panel on the Video Platform.
    7. New Protocol Between Video Platform and YuJa Hardware Hub Enables Fault Tolerance for Long-Term Offline Performance
      Our new network protocols allow the YuJa Hardware Hub to cache a long-running schedule and continue to record the scheduled captures even amidst longer durations of Internet outages. Once Internet connectivity is restored, all the recordings will automatically upload to the Video Platform for seamless playback.
    8. Advanced Video Quality Options for Browser Capture
      The Browser Capture application will now offer advanced video quality options for users based on their selected video camera. With this new feature, users can easily adjust their camera settings to select from a range of video quality options that best fit their needs. Additionally, users can also adjust the framerate of their screen recording up to 30 frames per second for a smoother and more seamless recording experience.
      The Browser Capture features Advanced Screen Options and Advanced Video Options.
    9. Institutions Can Now Apply Electronic Consent Forms to Media Content
      We have implemented a new feature to facilitate the management of consent forms for Content Creators. With this update, it’s now possible to apply accepted consent forms to media content, providing an efficient way to keep track of forms. Once the forms are submitted, users can conveniently access and review all accepted responses within the Branding tab or the Media Details panel for individual content. To learn more on how to apply consent forms to media and review responses, please visit our guide on Uploading and Sending Consent Forms.
      A list of QR Accepted consent forms in the Media Details window.
    10. Multi-Folder ZIP Files for Bulk Downloads of Multiple Video Files
      We now support downloading a ZIP file that contains their selected media content but, unlike before, will now place video in their own individual folder. Once the files have been extracted, all of the content will be available in segmented folders. Additionally, for multi-stream videos, users can choose to download the entire video or each stream separately.
      Download Request Window featuring videos to be downloaded.
    11. New Data Management Policy for Inactive Users
      Administrators can create a recurring policy to detect and delete users who haven’t logged into the Video Platform for a specific number of days. If the institution has access to Himalayas, all video content associated with the user will be archived in Himalayas, and other media will be archived in the Video Platform before the user is deleted. For institutions without access to Himalayas, all media content will be archived in the Video Platform.
      The Policy Creator featuring the new rule.
    12. NORDUnet Cloud Now Integrates with the Video Platform for Zoom Recordings
      Our European users who have integrated Zoom with NORDUnet’s cloud-based storage will be pleased to know that the Video Platform now supports integration with NORDUnet. Once integrated, the Video Platform will automatically scan NORDUnet’s cloud storage to retrieve and upload any Zoom recordings securely.
      NORDUNet Logo
    13. Downloadable CSV Files for Quiz Results
      Instructors can now access a comprehensive report of their students’ quiz results in the form of a downloadable CSV file. This report will allow instructors to compare individual student responses to the quiz questions and view scores for video playback quizzes. To view the file, simply access the Gradebook to review and download results for the selected quiz.
      CSV file for a playback quiz. Student names, ID, and score for each student is shown.
    14. Enable Institution-Wide Single Sign-On for Embedded or Linked Media Content
      In addition to the existing auto Single Sign-On (SSO) for recorded content, administrators can now choose to enable auto-SSO as the default setting when a new video is added to the Platform. This new feature enhances the platform’s security by requiring SSO authentication when accessing recorded media through direct links or embed codes.
      Setting to check Enable automatic Single sign-on for embedded and direct linked media content.
    15. Customize Bitrate Encoding Flavor to Optimize File Storage & Network Performance 
      Administrators and instructors can now adjust the preset of videos to reduce the overall size of their files and maintain optimal network performance during playback, or alternatively re-encode to improve the quality.

    YuJa Verity Test Proctoring Platform – “Kainite” Version Released to US, CAN, AUS, and EU Zones

    Australia Zone Canada Zone European Union Zone United States Zone YuJa Verity Test Proctoring Platform

    We have successfully pushed an update to all instances residing in the United States, Canada, Australia, and the European Union. This update includes the beta version for Verity Lockdown, monitoring external tools with Verity, the option to create practice tests, and a new Assessment tab to view all tests.

    1. New Verity Lockdown App (Beta) Available as Part of Standard Offering
      Building on the capability of our Verity Chrome extension, the Verity Lockdown Browser sets a new standard in secure testing for remote proctoring. By using an application-based testing environment grants us the freedom and flexibility to surpass the limitations of third-party browser extensions, allowing us to more deeply monitor the activity of students.

      The browser will prevent students from viewing other applications on their device and enforce strict measures to prevent common methods of bypassing proctor settings. This feature can easily be accessed and enabled for each test, allowing the instructor to decide the level of security they wish to apply on a per-test basis. The beta launch will only be supported for Canvas, with the full launch being available to Blackboard SaaS, D2L Brightspace, and Moodle users.

    1. Improved Poll Activation Workflow
      We have implemented a revised workflow that offers a complete list of Polls within the Engage dashboard. This enables instructors to access their saved Polls easily, decide if they would like to activate them in a course, and select how they would like to release the Poll (i.e. choose to release individual questions or release all questions together).

    2. Enhanced Panel Layout for the Poll Activation Dashboard
      As part of our ongoing efforts to enhance the user interface and improve the overall experience for instructors, we have made adjustments to the panel sizes on the Poll activation dashboard.

    3. Support for SAML-Based Single Sign-On Integration 
      We are pleased to announce that our YuJa Engage integration has been enhanced to support SAML-based single-sign-on integration.

As a result, the Engage platform can now identify individual users regardless of whether they access the system using their SSO or LMS login credentials.

    4. LMS Gradebook Sync for Each Question
      Building upon our gradebook sync integration for Polls, instructors can now seamlessly share individual questions with their students and receive real-time updates on the LMS gradebook.

    YuJa Enterprise Video Platform Update – “Vitex Tree” Released to CAN, AU and EU Zones

    Australia Zone Canada Zone European Union Zone YuJa Enterprise Video Platform

    We have successfully pushed an update to all Enterprise Video Platform instances residing in Canada, Australia, and the European Union. This release provides our users with over 200+ updates. Highlights include: the ability for institutions to customize their EnterpriseTube menu tabs and carousels, a brand new Image Editor, direct live stream integration with the internal CampusTube, QR Code-based media consent forms, and much more. This update will be released to US zones next Friday.

    1. Deep EnterpriseTube Customizability Including Adding Custom Menu Tabs to Video Channels and Adding Video Carousels
      Institutions can now more deeply customize their EnterpriseTube with the ability to create a more tailored viewing experience. New capabilities include the ability to create Custom Tabs to Video Channels, as well as add additional video carousels to a given EnterpriseTube page.
      EnterpriseTube featuring new tabs and custom carousels.

        • Custom Menu Tabs – Custom-created tabs for Video Channels will be displayed in the navigation bar for users to access easily.

    2. New Image Editor to View and Edit Photo Resources
      Complementing our Video Editor, we are now extending our media editing to include images. Here are a few key features of our new Image Editor:

      • Crop, rotate, and flip images.
      • Add shapes, texts, and shadows.
      • Adjust the size of the image to any resolution.
      • Choose from a range of filter styles to transform images.
      • Fine tune images by adjusting the brightness and contrast.

    3. Interchangeable Pre-Rolls and Post-Rolls to Align with Updated Institutional Branding Guidelines
      Complementing our ability to add fixed pre-rolls and post-rolls to videos, we now have the option to create interchangeable rolls by preserving the original video. This capability allows Content Creators to define branding guidelines for an institution, yet modify these guidelines without having to reprocess large amounts of video content.
      New option for the PLayer tab within media details to Burn Pre-roll and Post-roll permanently.
    4. YuJa User IDs Can Now Match Your Single-Sign-On or LMS Username
      To provide a consistent and streamlined process when identifying users on the Video Platform, we now can match the auto-generated YuJa User ID with your Single-Sign-On or LMS system usernames. Additionally, we’ve given administrators more control and flexibility by allowing them to rename existing user IDs within the Roster Panel.
      The Video Platform roster User IDs are shown to be the same as the LMS user ID.
    5. Delegate EnterpriseTube Folder Management to Non-Admin Users
      As part of our initiative to further the capabilities of EnterpriseTube, administrators can now delegate folders for non-admins to manage media content within. By editing the permissions of a folder, administrators can allow edit access to specific users, groups, or roles (i.e., all students or instructors). This enables non-admins to efficiently manage EnterpriseTube within a designated location.

    6. Link External Resources to Video Quiz Decision-Point Questions
      Quiz creators can now seamlessly add videos, documents, and links to decision-point questions, providing students access to relevant resources when selecting a decision.

    7. Video Quiz Slow-Down Controls Available
      In our previous release, we provided instructors with the option to disable speed controls for their video quizzes to prevent students from playing videos at increased speeds. This release enhances the feature by enabling slow-down controls when speed controls are disabled (but not speed-up controls).
      Video Speed Controls featuring only slowdown controls.
    8. Set Embargo Dates for Digital Assets Through Metadata Schema
      To ensure digital assets are only shared with the intended audience at the appropriate time, all media can now be tagged with an Embargo Date using a defined metadata schema. Embargoed media will be uploaded and labeled as such until the intended release date.

    10. RTMP Streams Now Support Fixed Stream Keys
      To provide a consistent integration point for third-party RTMP encoders, RTMP streams can now be integrated into the video platform with fixed stream keys. This enhancement ensures a consistent integration experience and allows administrators to maintain the same stream key for each session, enhancing the efficiency of their workflows. Further, to provide an added layer of security, the stream key token can be regenerated.
    11. View Real-Time Analytics for Individual Stream in Multi-Live Stream
      Live stream real-time analytics now provide more granular reporting for multi-stream sessions with details regarding Stream Health, Download Bandwidth, and Transcoding Status for each stream within the session.

    12. QR Code-Based Consent Form Distribution
      Institutions can now easily distribute consent forms using a simple and convenient QR code system. This simplifies the consent process and ensures that all necessary forms are obtained efficiently.

    13. Bulk-Merge Videos into a New Video Using Shared Folders
