Echo360 Lecture Recording Service Ending Summer 2022
Our relationship with the Echo360 vendor is ending this summer. We are switching to the on-campus Illinois Media Space video solution that’s been around for years, you might know it as Kaltura. All lecture and presentation recordings for summer and beyond will be available through Illinois Media Space.
Continue Your Lecture Recordings
The scheduling and automated service for your in-person classroom session recordings remains unchanged. Classrooms that previously used Echo360 for recordings will be able to record in Kaltura Illinois Media Space.
In-classroom recordings can be scheduled for a semester length course in lecture capture recording capable classrooms. These scheduled recordings start and stop automatically based on your official class meeting time.

As part of the scheduling process, Engineering IT can:
- Provide recurring, automatic recordings for your course in Illinois Media Space.
- Set automatic publishing of the class recordings to a Media Space Channel.
- Connect your class roster to the Media Space Channel (by request) so that enrolled students receive automatic access to the Media Space Channel.
- Provide support for adding your recordings to Canvas.
- Provide support for testing your classroom recordings prior to the start of the semester.
Review Your Recordings by May 31, 2022
- We’re working with Echo360 to export existing recordings into Illinois Media Space. There is currently no timeline or details to share just yet but we anticipate to move over all recorded content to Illinois Media Space.
- Over the last year, Echo360 recordings were recorded in parallel to Illinois Media Space. Login to mediaspace.illinois.edu and check under My Media to see what’s already available to you.
- To preserve your recordings on your own storage, login to echo360.org to review and download your content using these directions: Downloading Echo360 Media from Your Library.
