Downloading Student Recoded Media/Videos

If a student submitted a media recording using Canvas's built-in media recorder option, am I able to download it as an MP4/MOV? Or any other playable video format/codec I can then open with VLC? 

I've tried "Download Submissions" under Related Items within the Assignments section and it will download other media that was recorded from their phone/video camera and then uploaded. However, it will not download any videos they recorded using Canvas's built-in recording option.   

I keep trying to find different ways and I'm having no luck.

Alexis,

I haven't tried this in Speedgrader but I know it works for videos embedded within Canvas so I think it might work for you too.  Best done with Chrome.  

  • Click on the video so it opens
  • Click the CC button and select Upload Subtitles
  • Copy the URL listed on the screen and paste it into a new window
  • On this screen click the 3 dots in the lower right corner and select Download (this step is specific to Chrome.  Using a different browser might require you to right click and select download)
