Digital Services are currently investigating issues with the start button being greyed out when trying to record in Panopto.
This is an issue affecting a number of institutions, and we are working with Panopto to resolve this issue as quickly as possible.
We have successfully implemented a workaround by unlocking the input mic and camera settings on the Panopto app - please see below for relevant information.
We are actively collaborating with Panopto to achieve a permanent resolution to this issue.

The start button is greyed out when trying to record in Panopto.

We have successfully implemented a workaround by unlocking the input mic and camera settings on the Panopto app.
This change will be effective from 20/02/2025, enabling users to easily select the correct primary input source from the dropdown menu on the left-hand side of the app if not currently set.
We are actively collaborating with Panopto to achieve a permanent resolution to this issue.

N/A

In line with the University's policy of ensuring we are up to date with all the latest Microsoft Security practices, it will be necessary to perform some work on the servers over the period of approximately two weeks.
The work will be timed to ensure minimum inconvenience - with the aim of having all the servers available by 12:00 noon on the weekend and by 08:00 am on weekdays.

During this time, there will be unavoidable intermittent loss of service to all ICT systems for users on and off the University campus while the work is carried out.

Digital Services will be carrying out some planned database maintenance that will affect services such as the UniLincoln app, online timetables, and room booking.

N/A

This maintenance will result in the app being temporarily unavailable for a short time.
