Publishing to YouTube

The University of Minnesota is pleased to announce that the Classroom Recording software (Camtasia Relay) has been upgraded to version 4.2.1 and is available for download via Camtasia's website. On the Camtasia site, the download link is found on the lower right side of the screen. You will need to log in before downloading.

Installing Camtasia Relay 4.2.1

Current Camtasia Relay users will need to uninstall the 4.1.2 (or older) application and install version 4.2.1. Instructions for Windows and Mac users are available on the Setup Guides page. This process should take less than a couple of minutes. Watch the training video.

Uploading Camtasia Relay videos to YouTube

With the 4.2.1 upgrade, Camtasia Relay’s default setting enables all users to immediately publish video to YouTube via U of M Google Apps. Publishing to YouTube eliminates the need for new users to wait for an administrator to create an account, as is necessary for those new users who choose to publish video to MediaMill/MediaMagnet. If you have not yet signed in to your U of M YouTube account, you will need to do so first. Information about video file lengths can be found on YouTube’s site.

YouTube & Your Content: Rights & Responsibilities

You retain ownership of any intellectual property rights that you hold in that content. In short, what belongs to you stays yours. However, by using the service, you agree to a worldwide license that enables Google to use, host, store, reproduce, modify and create derivative works and distribute that content for the purpose of operating, promoting, and improving their service.

Sign in to your U of M Google YouTube account

Sign in to your U of M Google account. From the menu bar, select more. Next, select YouTube from the dropdown list. Next, read the user agreement and click to agree to its terms (Terms of Service, Privacy policy). YouTube is now available to your U of M Google account.

Account Management

Legacy 1.2 accounts on the physical server can no longer be supported. If you are still using Camtasia Relay version 1.2, or if you need help installing Camtasia Relay version 4.2.1, Classroom Recording services will work with you to migrate to 4.2.1.
