How do I access the Panopto Recorder and Silverlight player?

The Panopto Recorder and Silverlight player plugin are already installed on LWTech office and lab/podium computers. You should be able to see the Panopto Recorder shortcut on your desktop, and the Silverlight plugin will automatically load Panopto recordings in your browser. If you are unable to access them, please contact the IT department.

When setting up the recorder, you will need the following information:

Server: lwtech.hosted.panopto.com
Login/PW: Use your LWTech login to connect.

You can also use Panopto on your home/personal computer or iPhone/iPad.

Home/Personal Computer - See the Panopto Recorder installation instructions (Mac | Windows). Your browser will prompt you to download and install the Silverlight plugin when you attempt to play videos in your browser.
iPhone/iPad - The Panopto app is available in Apple's app store; iOS only. No Android apps are available.
