What is it?
After the recorded Collaborate session, you will need to locate a copy of the recording.
What does it do?
To find your recording, allow some time after you have stopped recording for the video to be processed. The amount of time this takes could vary. If it has been more than 24 hours, please contact the Help4U service desk.
For instructors
- Find your recordings
- Use the range filter to see past recordings
What should I know?
Step 1: When the recording is ready, click on the three dots beside Blackboard Collaborate
Step 2: Select the option for View all recordings.
Step 3: In the next page, make sure that you change the filter from Upcoming session’ to Recordings in a range. Use the date options on the top left-hand side of the window to filter to find the recordings you’d want.
Note: The default filter of Recent Recordings is limited to 30 days, and therefore you may not find the recording you’re looking for with this filter.
Step 4: Find the recording you want to access and click on the three dots at the furthest right in that row. That will open a menu that will include options to watch the recording, download it, or change the name.
Note: Students will be able to stream the recording but not download it unless you have allowed this in the settings. Please review the University of Dundee before you allow students to download recordings.
Step 5: Download the recording and find it wherever your downloads are saved on your computer. You will most likely need to rename this file as it will download with a generic name instead of the session title.
