v3.7-r1 ()

Backup and Restore

Thanks to Synergy Learning and the ETH Zürich, it is now possible to store the event ids of Opencast videos within a course backup. During restore, Opencast is triggered to create a series for the new course and copy the respective opencast events to the new course. With this feature, reusing events throughout several semesters gets much easier.

Other new features

• The event overview shows to new status:
  • Needs cutting: Each event which is in opencast status PROCESSED, has previews and is only published to 'internal'.
  • Capturing: Each event which is currently in opencast status RECORDING.
• Learner and Instructor roles are now created on first installation.
• Setting for creating a opencast group creation is now set to false by default.

New settings

• duplicateworkflow: Workflow which will duplicate the events of a backup during restore. If not set, the backup and restore functionality is deactivated.

Small changes

• Fixed naming of section in admin settings containing the settings for group and series creation.

Technical features

• Prettified code structure of admin settings page.
