Setting up YouTube Media Integration

  • Updated
Follow

The Media Integration Page allows schools to choose where they would like media files to be stored when uploaded into SEQTA. Different methods can be set for audio and video interdependently for each SEQTA module.

The default setting is to use SEQTA's 'Built-In' functionally to transcode files and store copies of the files on the School's SEQTA Server. This can be changed to use YouTube by completing the below steps. Click here to read more about the difference between these two options.

Configuring SEQTA to integrate with YouTube can reduce the space userfiles take up on the school's SEQTA Server.

The steps for configuring Media integration for YouTube are as follows:

  1. Go to the Administration Workspace > Application Settings > Media Integration
  2. If only the 'Built-In' item listed click on the Add Configuration button and edit the item name to 'YouTube (Students)' for SEQTA Learn, or 'YouTube (Staff)' for SEQTA Teach .
