Important Student Privacy Information

If you intend to share video that includes student participation (identifying information such as name, image, or voice), you must follow certain practices; please see the Academic Senate FAQ "If I record a class lecture or discussion, and it includes student participation (identifying information such as name, image, or voice), can I share the recording with individuals who are not enrolled in the course?"


For most Zoom Cloud recordings

You will need to:

  1. Wait until the recordings appear in your My Media. (Your recordings are automatically copied from the Zoom Cloud to your Kaltura My Media, assuming you have a Kaltura account; if you do not have a Kaltura account, see instructions below.)
    Recordings should appear shortly after you stop recording in Zoom; this can sometimes be minutes but at other times may take several hours.
  2. Share the recordings. You have a variety of ways to do this, see How do I share media in Kaltura within bCourses?


Other things you may want to know how to do: 


For Zoom Cloud recordings created prior to having a Kaltura account

You will need to:

  1. Download these recordings to your hard disk. (For more info on downloading these recordings, follow the instructions in How do I download my Zoom Cloud recordings?)
  2. Upload the media to Kaltura; see How do I upload media to My Media?
  3. Share the recordings. You have a variety of ways to do this, all documented in How do I share media in Kaltura within bCourses?

For Zoom recordings that were saved to your hard disk (not the Zoom Cloud)

You will need to:

  1. Locate the files on your hard disk.
    By default, recordings are placed in a Zoom folder in Documents:
    PC: C:\Users\User Name\Documents\Zoom
    Mac: /Users/User Name/Documents/Zoom
    Screenshot of the Zoom folder opened in a file chooser
  2. Upload the media to Kaltura; see How do I upload existing media files to My Media?
