Lecturecast Decommissioning

UCL will be introducing Panopto as the new educational recording and video management system which will replace Lecturecast, starting from September 2025/26.

To prepare for this transition, in-room scheduled capture will no longer be available from 28th April 2025.

Cameras and microphones will remain unaffected. You can use Microsoft Teams or Zoom for manual recording in teaching spaces.
