Uploading videos to Personal Folder (Oma Kansio)

The idea with Personal Folder is to offer an easy way to add videos or other kind of media for courses, for temporal use (max 6 months). Personal Folder is available for the students and staff of JYU. However, we recommend publishing lecture videos and educational content in the public side of Moniviestin instead. The staff can order public program pages through HelpJYU service.

Using Personal Folder and adding media pages

Go to http://moniviestin.jyu.fi and log in with your own account by clicking "JYU log in" from the top right corner of the page. On first login you have to read and accept terms of use. Read them carefully.

Now you should see your own name in the top right corner. Click it and choose "Oma kansio (Personal folder)". Here you can see all videos which are inside of your Personal Folder. Alternatively you can press Oma kansio (Personal folder) from the blue bar.

Visibility of the contents and preserving

NB! Personal media pages will be preserved 180 days in Moniviestin, until they are deleted automatically. The remaining preservation time can be seen on media pages.

If you want to save the video for longer time, you can download it to your own computer (link can be found from "Lataukset" (Downloads) tab under the video) or video support can transfer it by request into a different place in Moniviestin where it can be retained longer periods of time.

Personal Folder index is shown for you only. Each media page is shown to everyone who know the exact URL address to it. Videos stored in Personal folder can not be searched with the search tool in Moniviestin.
