How do I manage Canvas Studio default settings for embedding and captioning media as an admin?
As a Canvas Studio admin, you can manage default options for embedding and captioning Studio media from the Admin tab of the Settings menu.
Auto-Enable Media Tabs When Teachers Embed
To enable media tabs by default when teachers embed media, click the Auto-enable Media Tabs when embedding to a Canvas Course toggle on.
Media tabs on embedded course media display media details, comments, insights, and captions. Students can also view details and enter comments.
Note: When a teacher embeds media, the teacher can select to hide media tabs.
Auto-Enable Commenting for Student Submissions
To enable media tabs by default when students embed media, click the Auto-enable commenting for Studio submissions toggle on.
Media tabs for student-embedded media allow comments on the media.
Note: When a student embeds media, the student can select to hide media tabs.
Lock Captioning Features
As an admin, you can set and lock captioning features for all user accounts.
To select a feature setting, click the State toggle to the desired state [1]. Then, click the Lock icon for that feature [2].
Note: Locking a feature setting overrides users' individual captioning settings.
