Navigate My Mediasite

My Mediasite provides a simple interface that allows you to create, record, share, and publish your presentations easily. You can also use it to view presentation analytics, interact with your audience via polls and Q & A forums, and manage quizzes.

My Mediasite also features a responsive layout that adjusts to whether you are creating and managing your presentations using your computer or mobile device.

Home: Click Home to go to your homepage. This is where you will be able to view all of the following settings and features in one place. You will also see your presentations by default.

Approvals: You can put your recorded presentations through an iterative content approval (review-edit-approve) workflow before making them available to your audience. Click Approvals to see updated presentations that need approved.

Moderation: Use My Mediasite to review and respond to questions from the audience. This feature will work only if it is enabled on the presentation. Viewers ask questions using the Mediasite Player and can optionally include with their question the exact time in the presentation that they submitted the question.

Remote: View presentations that you have copied or moved to a remote Mediasite as well as shared folders you have access to on the site. Only sites that your administrator has connected to your Mediasite are available in the drop-down list. Please note that your user permissions also determine the sites you are able to view. If you do not see the remote Mediasite you want to access, contact your Mediasite administrator. On this page you can also view the status of pending presentation exports to a remote site.

 If you exceed your storage allocation, your administrator may disable certain features, including creating presentations and publishing video and audio podcasts, until you reduce the amount of storage space you are using. To reduce the amount of space you are using, make sure to delete presentations and editor projects that you no longer need.

      If shared folders are available on your Mediasite, you can add your presentations to them. Shared folders are accessible by multiple users. In fact, any user with write permissions to a shared folder can view and add content to it. Your Mediasite administrator creates shared folders and you cannot edit or delete them from My Mediasite.

 The permissions you have been assigned will determine the channels and shared folders you can see.
