Video hubs

Dash integration allows you to build a Video Hub directly into your Moodle site. Use data sources like Video Time stats (overview of all video activities, view counts, completion data, etc.) or Video Time sessions (user-specific session logs including timestamps, watch %, names) to create dashboards for learners, instructors, or admins. Display content by tag, course, or category — for example on the front page or a custom dashboard. You can even allow users to share videos with others site-wide (optional setup). Ideal for showcasing popular content, promoting reuse, or enabling transparent usage insights. (Requires Dash)
