This provides learners with fast, high-quality, ad-free viewing on any device. With GoDAM, you get a streamlined workflow, consistent branding, and distraction-free learning at a cost-effective price.

Form Recorder Field

Everest Forms now supports the Recorder Field, joining Gravity Forms, WPForms, Fluent Forms, Forminator, SureForms, and other integrations with the form recorder field. This lets you embed a video recorder directly into your forms, enabling users to submit videos via webcam, screencast, or local file upload while submitting the form.

Video Migration

GoDAM 1.4 introduces a powerful Video Migration tool that lets you seamlessly move your WordPress core videos and Vimeo videos into GoDAM. 

• WordPress videos can be offloaded to GoDAM Central for transcoding and delivery via our global CDN, ensuring faster, smoother playback, after which the  Core video migration tool will automatically replace them with GoDAM powered videos.
• First, import Vimeo videos into GoDAM Central. Then, use Vimeo Video Migration to automatically replace them with GoDAM videos across your site. The tool also imports all Vimeo thumbnails and sets the active thumbnail to match the one you used on Vimeo.

All migrated videos are served in your custom-branded player, giving your site a consistent look, professional feel and a faster video playback experience. Read our video migration documentation.

Text-to-Speech

AI-generated transcripts created in GoDAM Central will now seamlessly appear in your embedded WordPress videos. Previously, transcripts were only visible within GoDAM Central. However, with this update, your audience can now view them directly on your WordPress posts inside the attached video. As a result, your videos become more engaging.
