Panopto files are managed at a hosted site. We will delete files in old folders after 2 years of inactivity in the folder. If you want to archive your files for a longer period of time, I would recommend creating mp4 downloads of the files and storing them on your UVa Box drive or in Kaltura. Instructions for downloading your recordings can be found at http://support.panopto.com/articles/Documentation/how-download-podcasts-0
IMPORTANT: If you find this tool helpful for your classes - please let your Dean and Information Officer know that funding for Panopto is critical. Ask them to please work towards a centrally funded mandate for this software. Panopto is currently funded by Classroom Support, with help from Engineering and the Office of the VP for Information Technology. A permanent source of funding is needed. Thank you.
