Step 4

If you have not already, download the program for your computer operating system and follow the installation instructions. If you have already downloaded and installed the software, it will open automatically.

Step 5

When Kaltura Capture opens, you will see a large red record button as well as dropdown menus for selecting the screen you’d like to record and the webcam and the microphone you’d like to use. You can disable any of these inputs by clicking on the icons themselves.

NOTE: If you have a computer with more than one monitor, make sure that the screen selected for recording is the one that will have the full presentation window, not the “Presenter View” with notes and presentation controls.
The “Manage” link will open up a menu where you can view your previously recorded lectures, adjust recording settings, and view your installation details.
