Upload video file

Create a video-only on-demand presentation by uploading a media file to Mediasite. If you are uploading a 360⁰ video file, Mediasite automatically detects it and provides the option for you to enable 360⁰ video playback.

Considerations when uploading 360⁰ video files
  • You can only upload MP4 files when using 360⁰ video.
  • After you upload the file, you enable 360° video playback on the presentation’s Information tab.
  • The following features are not available for 360⁰ video presentations: Slides, Captions, Polls, Quizzes, Video editing (within the application), Delivery options (podcast, video podcast, and captions), Post-presentation links.
