Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]	'
Basis of Presentation and Nature Of Business	'
	Basis of Presentation and Nature of Business
	The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Qumu Corporation, its subsidiaries, and prior to July 3, 2013, its majority-owned joint venture, collectively hereinafter referred to as “Qumu” or the “Company.” All references to Qumu, Inc. shall mean the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary acquired in October 2011. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
	The Company previously conducted its operations through two businesses consisting of 1) its enterprise video content management software business and 2) its disc publishing business. As further described in note 2, on June 27, 2014, the Company's shareholders approved the sale of the disc publishing assets and on July 1, 2014, the sale was completed. As a result, effective June 27, 2014, the disc publishing business was classified as held for sale and qualified for presentation as discontinued operations effective with the reporting of the Company's financial results for the second quarter of 2014. Accordingly, effective June 27, 2014, the Company has one remaining reportable segment, the enterprise video content management software business. Qumu’s enterprise video content management software business provides the tools businesses need to create, manage, secure, distribute and measure the success of their videos. Qumu helps organizations around the world realize the greatest possible value from video and other rich content they create and publish. The Company markets its products to customers in North America, Europe and Asia.
	Change in Estimation Methodology for Establishing VSOE for Software Support Maintenance Contracts: Since its acquisition of Qumu, Inc. in October 2011 through December 31, 2013, the Company utilized the bell-shaped curve approach for determining vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value for its software support maintenance contracts and professional services sold by its enterprise video content management software business. Because the enterprise video content management software business is rapidly growing and it is experiencing changing pricing policies, types of customers, types and levels of support offerings, and the size and scope of arrangements, management believes that the stated renewal rate set forth in its software support maintenance contracts provides better evidence for that deliverable's fair value. As a result, beginning January 1, 2014, the Company establishes VSOE of fair value for its software support maintenance contracts by reference to substantive stated renewal rates within those arrangements. The bell-shaped curve approach continues to be used for professional services.
	The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Pursuant to such rules and regulations, certain financial information and footnote disclosures normally included in a complete set of financial statements have been condensed or omitted. However, in the opinion of management, the financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations and cash flows of the interim periods presented. Operating results for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire year, due to seasonal, operating and other factors. In accordance with ASC 205-20, the operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and the financial position as of September 30, 2014 reflect the Company's disc publishing business as discontinued operations. Previously reported operating results and financial position for comparable periods in 2013 have also been restated to reflect this reclassification. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2013.
	The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from estimates on items such as asset impairment charges, deferred tax asset valuation allowances and accruals for uncertain tax positions. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best judgment. Management evaluates estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using its technical knowledge, historical experience and other factors, including consideration of the impact of the current economic environment. Management believes its assumptions are reasonable and adjusts such estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances change. Illiquid credit markets, volatile equity, foreign currency and energy markets, and declines in business and consumer spending have combined to increase the uncertainty inherent in such estimates and assumptions. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Any required changes in those estimates will be reflected in the financial statements in future periods.

	Divestiture of Disc Publishing Business
	On April 24, 2014, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “asset purchase agreement”) with Equus Holdings, Inc. and Redwood Acquisition, Inc. (now known as Rimage Corporation, “Buyer”). Under the terms of the asset purchase agreement, the Company agreed to sell to Buyer all of the assets primarily used or primarily held for use in connection with its disc publishing business. Buyer also agreed to assume on the closing date certain agreements and liabilities relating to the disc publishing business and the acquired assets.
	At a special meeting of the Company's shareholders held on June 27, 2014, the Company's shareholders approved the sale of the disc publishing assets as contemplated by the asset purchase agreement. As a result, effective June 27, 2014, the disc publishing business was classified as held for sale and qualified for discontinued operations presentation in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In accordance with ASC 205-20, the results of the discontinued disc publishing business have been presented as discontinued operations effective with the reporting of financial results for the second quarter 2014. As such, financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 have been reported on this basis. Previously reported results for comparable periods in 2013 have also been restated to reflect this reclassification.
	On July 1, 2014, the Company’s sale of the disc publishing business was completed. The Company also entered into a mutual transition services agreement with Buyer and entered into a lease agreement with Buyer for the lease from Buyer of a portion of the property located at 7725 Washington Avenue South, Minneapolis, MN 55349.
	The adjusted purchase price paid to the Company was $22.0 million, of which $2.3 million was placed in an escrow account to support the Company’s indemnification obligations under the asset purchase agreement for a fifteen-month escrow period. The $2.3 million escrow is classified as restricted cash in current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2014. In the third quarter of 2014, the Company recorded a gain on sale of the disc publishing business of $16.2 million, exclusive of the impact of transaction related expenses recorded through September 30, 2014. The gain on sale attributable to the U.S. is offset for federal income tax purposes by current or prior-year tax losses but is subject to applicable state income taxes.
	The operational results of the disc publishing business are presented in the “Net income from discontinued operations, net of tax” line item on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.  Also included in this line item for the 2014 periods is the gain on sale of the disc publishing business and non-recurring expenses incurred by the Company as a result of the sale of the disc publishing business, including third party transaction specific costs, one-time income tax related impacts, and for the year-to-date period, the acceleration of vesting of cash-based long-term incentive and stock-based awards payable to employees of the disc publishing business upon completion of the asset sale transaction. The described non-recurring expenses and income tax related impacts amounted to approximately $6.0 million and $9.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively. In accordance with ASC 205-20, no general corporate charges were allocated to the discontinued business. The assets and liabilities of the discontinued business are presented on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as assets and liabilities from discontinued operations.
	Other than consolidated amounts reflecting operating results and balances for both the continuing and discontinued operations, all remaining amounts presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes reflect the financial results and financial position of the Company's continuing enterprise video content management software business.

	On May 20, 2014, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the 2007 Plan to increase the number of shares authorized under the plan by 500,000 to a total of 2,230,320 shares.

	Income Taxes
	The Company recorded net income tax benefits of $4.5 million and $5.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, compared to net income tax benefits of $1.1 million and $2.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively. Amounts in each period primarily reflect the realization of income tax benefits on losses from continuing operations as a result of income generated from discontinued operations, including the gain on sale of the disc publishing business recognized in the third quarter of 2014. Income tax benefits realized in continuing operations on this basis were offset in each period by a corresponding allocation of income tax expense to discontinued operations.
	As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company’s liability for gross unrecognized tax benefits totaled $893,000 and $1,036,000, respectively (excluding interest and penalties). Total accrued interest and penalties relating to unrecognized tax benefits amounted to $1,000 and $18,000 on a gross basis at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The reduction in the liability for gross unrecognized tax benefits and associated interest and penalties reflects relief of reserves established in prior years as a result of the expiration of the statute of limitations and an Internal Revenue Service audit resulting in the effective settlement of certain prior credits and deductions claimed. The Company does not currently expect significant changes in the amount of unrecognized tax benefits during the next twelve months.

	Fair Value Measurements
	A hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value is in place that distinguishes market data between observable independent market inputs and unobservable market assumptions by the reporting entity.
	The hierarchy is intended to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Three levels within the hierarchy may be used to measure fair value:
	•	Level 1: Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
	•	Level 2: Inputs include data points that are observable such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and inputs (other than quoted prices) such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
	•	Level 3: Inputs are generated from model-based techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect an entity’s own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
	The Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the fair value hierarchy utilized to determine such fair values is as follows at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively (in thousands):
				Fair Value Measurements Using

	Computation of Net Loss From Continuing Operations Per Share of Common Stock
	Basic net loss from continuing operations per common share is determined by dividing net loss from continuing operations by the basic weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share includes the potentially dilutive effect of common shares issued in connection with outstanding stock options using the treasury stock method and the dilutive impact of restricted stock units. Stock options and restricted stock units to acquire weighted average common shares of 1,722,000 and 1,748,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, have been excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average common shares as their effect is anti-dilutive. Stock options and restricted stock units to acquire weighted average common shares of 1,838,000 and 1,894,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, have been excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average common shares as their effect is anti-dilutive.
	The Company calculates net loss per share pursuant to the two-class method, which requires all outstanding unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) to be considered participating securities and included in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share using the two-class method. The Company included in its computation of weighted average shares outstanding approximately 101,000 and 80,000 weighted average outstanding shares of unvested restricted stock deemed to be participating securities for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The Company included in its computation of weighted average shares outstanding approximately 77,000 and 80,000 weighted average outstanding shares of unvested restricted stock deemed to be participating securities for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The following table identifies the components of net loss per basic and diluted share (in thousands, except for per share data):

	At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, Qumu held an investment totaling $3.1 million in convertible preferred stock of Briefcam, Ltd. (“Briefcam”), a privately-held Israeli company that develops video synopsis technology to augment security and surveillance systems to facilitate review of surveillance video. Qumu also holds warrants to purchase additional Briefcam preferred stock in the same series and at the same price as its invested preferred shares. Qumu’s investment in Briefcam represents a minority ownership interest of less than 20%. The investment is included in other non-current assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
	Because Qumu's ownership interest is less than 20% and it has no other rights or privileges that enable it to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of BriefCam, Qumu accounts for this equity investment using the cost method. Qumu monitors BriefCam's results of operations, business plan and capital raising activities, and is not aware of any events or circumstances that would indicate an other than temporary decline in the carrying value of its investment.

	Recently Issued Accounting Standards
	In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, “Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists”. ASU 2013-11 requires an entity to net its liability for unrecognized tax benefits against the deferred tax assets for all same jurisdiction net operating losses or similar tax loss carryforwards, or tax credit carryforwards. A gross presentation will be required only if such carryforwards are not available as of the reporting date to settle any additional income taxes resulting from disallowance of the uncertain tax position or the entity does not intend to use these carryforwards for this purpose. The new guidance is effective on a prospective basis for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013 and interim periods within those years. The Company adopted ASU No. 2013-11 on January 1, 2014 and its adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
	In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, "Presentation of Financial Statement (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity" which changes the criteria and requires additional disclosures for reporting discontinued operations. The amendments in ASU 2014-08 are effective for all disposals of components of an entity that occur within annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2015. The Company does not expect that its adoption of ASU 2014-08 will have a material impact on its financial statements or disclosures in its financial statements.
	In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers", which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2017. Early application is not permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.

	On June 27, 2014, the Company's shareholders approved the sale of the disc publishing assets, and on July 1, 2014, the sale was completed. As a result, effective June 27, 2014, the disc publishing business was classified as held for sale and qualified for presentation as discontinued operations effective with the reporting of the Company's financial results for the second quarter of 2014. Previously reported results for comparable periods in 2013 have also been restated to reflect this reclassification.
	The condensed consolidated statements of operations include the correction of an immaterial error related to the three and six-months ended June 30, 2014.  This correction, which is reflected in the Company's financial results for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, resulted in a decrease to income tax expense from continuing operations and an offsetting decrease to net income from discontinued operations, net of tax, in the amount of $1.5 million.  The described revision did not impact the Company’s consolidated net income (loss) in the periods reported.

	On October 3, 2014, the Company entered into Share Purchase Agreements to acquire 100% of the outstanding shares (the "Share Purchase Transaction") of Kulu Valley Ltd., a private limited company incorporated in England and Wales (“Kulu”). The acquisition was made to expand Qumu’s addressable market through the offering of Kulu Valley’s best-in-class video content creation capabilities and easy-to-deploy pure cloud solution, and provides Kulu’s customers with access to industry leading video content management and delivery capability.
	As a result of the transaction, Kulu is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. As consideration for the Share Purchase Transaction, the Company issued 275,000 shares of its common stock and paid approximately $13,894,000 in cash, for a purchase price of $17,675,000 in aggregate value. The Company acquired approximately $2,898,000 of cash in the transaction resulting in net cash paid in the Share Purchase Transaction of approximately $10,996,000. Under the Share Purchase Transaction, the purchase price was determined based upon estimates of cash, indebtedness and working capital at the closing. Post-closing adjustments to these estimates will be calculated after the closing and, subject to dispute as to the adjustment amounts, will be paid to the Company or by the Company within five business days of final determination of the adjustment amounts. For purposes of calculating the purchase price attributable to the 275,000 shares of Company common stock issuable in the Share Purchase Transaction, the parties agreed upon a value of $13.75 per share. All of the shares of the Company’s common stock issued in the Share Purchase Transaction were issued to shareholders of Kulu who are also employees of Kulu. Pursuant to the terms of a lock-up letter agreement, the shares issued in the Share Purchase Transaction will be restricted from transfer, subject to certain exceptions. The restrictions will lapse for all of the shares issued at 365 days following the closing of the Share Purchase Transaction. Of the amounts payable in the Share Purchase Transaction, $2,000,000 is subject to escrow to secure certain warranty and indemnification obligations to the Company. The escrow funds will be held for a period of 15 months.
	The acquisition will be accounted for under the provisions of ASC 805, Business Combinations. During the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company will complete a purchase price allocation based on the fair values of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Management has engaged the services of an independent qualified third party appraiser to assist with establishing fair values. The Company currently expects that intangible assets (including goodwill) will comprise in excess of 80% of the allocated purchase price in the opening balance sheet.
