Upload a video to an activity (legacy)

When you upload a video to an activity, Ruzuku will host that video for you. We'll also automatically convert your MP4 video into a Web- and mobile-optimized format for your students to view.

Ruzuku supports videos in any resolution, including high-definition resolutions such as 720p, 1080p, and even 4K. We display videos using an adaptive streaming player, which adjusts its resolution and speed based on your student's device and internet connection.

Note that each video file must be no larger than 2,000 MB (2 GB) and should be in MP4 format.

Please name your video file as simply as possible to ensure the best transcoding (all lower case, no spaces, punctuation or special characters).
