New My Mediasite Desktop Recorder (MDR) Features

If you are using MDR and are prompted to update go ahead and update.  The interface is slightly different it will say Add Presentation and Windows users will select Capture Video and all will look as usual.  macOS Catalina users will need to download the new App Mosaic, which is a streamlined version of MDR.

You can also now upload directly YouTube videos into your collection of recordings, keep everything in one place.

Other features are updated quizzes and uploads.

Another feature that can be found in My Mediasite is the new Moderation App which will allow presenters or instructors to moderate not only the Q&A but also the Comments and Annotations on a video within a Channel.

Streams from Teams and Permissions

From https://ecu.teamdynamix.com/TDClient/1409/Portal/KB/ArticleDet?ID=67559

Make sure you apply the appropriate viewing permissions when uploading a video. Permissions at the video level allow you to control who can see your video, who can own and edit it and assign access from within groups and channels. When you upload a video into Stream, you have the option to select, Allow everyone in your company to view this video. Any users with an ECU Microsoft 365 account can see the video and add it to their groups and/or channels. The Shared with field is where you select who can view/own your video and in which groups/channels. Use the drop-down to search and select viewers.

Recordings can be uploaded to Mediasite or Studio to maintain a repository for future use.
