Yuja Enterprise Video Platform will replace Warpwire as Davidson’s media content management system and lecture capture solution at the conclusion of the Spring 2023 Semester.
Project Overview
T&I Academic Technology is pleased to announce the newest addition to our array of best-of-class software solutions: the YuJa Enterprise Video Platform.
Yuja EVP will replace Warpwire as Davidson’s media content management system and lecture capture solution at the conclusion of the Spring 2023 Semester. Yuja will bring a flexible, easy-to-use suite of video editing tools, deep integrations with our Moodle Learning Management System (LMS) and Zoom conferencing system. The platform also includes unlimited storage and streaming capacity, and a strong company focus on the education market.
Data and existing recordings will automatically be transitioned from Warpwire to YuJa EVP beginning on May 17.
Using YuJa
YuJa is currently available to pilot users, as the Academic Technology and Digital Learning teams prepare documentation and instructional materials. Once the spring semester concludes, access to Warpwire will end, and YuJa will be Davidson’s primary media content management system.
More information about using YuJa will be provided in June 2023 after data transfer is complete. To be gain access to YuJa before this date you can request to be added to the YuJa pilot list by emailing ti@davidson.edu.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to move my data?
No. All user data and recordings in the Warpwire system as of May 17, 2023 will be automatically moved to YuJa over a 6-8 week period. One thing you can do to help speed that process is to go through your stored videos in Warpwire and Zoom, and remove any that you no longer need. In addition, YuJa will begin to automatically store your Zoom recordings to the platform.
Can staff/departments use YuJa as well?
Absolutely! YuJa is licensed for use by all College employees.
Do I need to use Moodle in order to use YuJa?
No. While YuJa integrates well with Moodle, it also includes a standalone access portal, and you will be able to link to YuJa videos from anywhere. Login instructions will be provided later this semester.
