## Description

The Software meets the following technical/functional specification: Cloud-based video management platform provides a customizable video library with departmental home pages, a suite of analytics for gauging viewing behaviour, content creation tools for all faculty, students, and staff, an easy-to-use video editor that runs in any web browser, content governance including availability windows and approval workflows, an inside-video search engine that indexes every word spoken and shown on-screen in every recording, and a video player that runs in any web browser and on students' mobile devices\. Every video uploaded to the library is automatically transcoded for adaptive bitrate streaming, ensuring fast start-up and minimal buffering, regardless of connection speed\. Optimised viewing during playback for the viewer's network connection by continuously detecting the available bandwidth in real time and dynamically adjusting the quality of the video stream accordingly\. Students or other content viewers can also manually adjust the playback quality of their videos based on their preference and internet connection\. Supports all major codecs and upload file types which ensures the University will be able to support any current and legacy video format\. Along with the robust video management and cloud storage tools provided, the video platform was built to seamlessly integrate with Blackboard and Microsoft Teams providing single sign-on and rolling synchronisation of permissions\. Multi-camera and distributed recording is supported for on-demand and live streaming of events, ideal for lecture and assessment environments\. The technology allows capturing multiple video sources across different rooms without extensive cabling\. By connecting video sources to internet-connected computers, each computer captures its video sources into the same session\. They are then synchronised upon upload, creating a single production with multiple feeds\.
