Texas Christian University Rolls Out New Video Platform, Zoom Connector

Texas Christian University is implementing a new video management platform to support media creation, hosting, storage, and distribution solution campuswide. The institution selected YuJa's Enterprise Video Platform for the revamp.

The new platform covers traditional use cases, such as recording and editing lectures, as well as next-gen features such as auto-captioning and the ability to edit captions, video editing, embedding video quizzes, in-video commenting, and the ability to share media both internally and externally, according to a news announcement. It also features automated production, processing, publishing, and management of video and multimedia content.

The university shared that it will also utilize YuJa's Zoom Connector to automatically upload videos recorded through Zoom into the platform. Recordings can then be automatically captioned and indexed, disseminated securely, and viewed on any device.

"We're excited for Texas Christian University to get started using the Video Platform to see how simple, yet powerful it is for everyone from administrators to instructors and students," said Nathan Arora, chief business officer at YuJa, in a statement. "Our goal is to make the transition seamless, and our teams are experienced at helping institutions with the migration process from start to finish."
