Using Mediasite with Moodle

Mediasite allows you to add Captions to your video Presentations to meet accessibility needs as well as improve search results. Captions can be added to a Video in two ways:

1. Manually – This method allows you to create your own captions using a 3^rd party tool.
2. 3^rd Party Captioning Provider – Your Mediasite Administrator has the ability to integrate Mediasite with 3^rd party Captioning Providers that allow you to have captions created for you. Turn-around times and pricing will vary by provider.

Creating Captions for Your Mediasite Presentation

To enable Captions:

1. Launch My Mediasite from within Moodle

3. Click: Edit Details
4. Select the Delivery tab
5. Enable Audio Transcriptions
6. Choose:
