Warpwire (Create and embed videos in Sakai)
Warpwire is a streamlined, easy-to-use tool that allows instructors to quickly create and display videos in their Sakai courses.
- After an instructor adds the Warpwire tool to their Sakai course, their course is assigned its own "Media Library".
- In the Sakai Text Editor, such as in Lessons, instructors can click on the Warpwire icon on the Text Editor toolbar, create a video, and display their video to their students. The video is stored in the course Media Library.

Importing Warpwire Content to Another Site
When you import course content from one Sakai site to another, there are additional steps you must take to ensure that your Warpwire content will be viewable by students in the new site. See detailed instructions below.
More Tips & How-to's

- How to adjust microphone input level on Windows 10 (PDF)
Recommendations for Instructors
- Though Warpwire allows you to upload images to your Media Library, we recommend using Sakai’s image button rather than Warpwire to insert (embed) your images in Sakai.
- When you need to create audio content, we recommend that you use Sakai's audio recorder.
- Your students can continue using Sakai's audio recorder.
- Due to the nature of emails, do not embed (display) videos in your Sakai emails.
- Warpwire’s Live Broadcast feature is not supported at this time.
