Alternative Formats for Video Studio Videos within Blackboard
Learners now have the ability to download Alternative Formats for Video Studio videos within Blackboard Documents when using the Ally Alternative Formats feature. When enabled by the Administrator, students will see the Video as a valid file type to download a variety of Alternative Formats based on the transcript of the video when navigating through the Alternative Formats menu for Blackboard Documents.
Administrators
Administrators will configure this through the Ally Admin Configuration console to enable the ability to download alternative formats for Video Studio videos.
Note: The feature is automatically configured as “off” by default in the Ally Admin console.
