Recording webcam and mic with Express Capture

Using Express Capture

Learn how to utilize Kaltura Express Capture.

Express Capture allows recording webcam content directly from WebCampus without the need to install any additional software. Express capture does not record your screen content and only records your webcam and mic. Express capture allows you to easily add quick webcam recordings to WebCampus and for students to create web cam recordings as submissions for discussions or quizzes.

NOTE: Safari and Internet Explorer will not work with Express Capture; please use either Chrome or Firefox for the best results.

Follow these instructions to create a recording using Express Capture:

Step 1: Log in to and browse to your course.

Step 2: Click on My Media in the left-hand course menu. (If My Media is not in your course menu it will need to be enabled.)

Step 3: Click on the + Add New drop-down menu and select Express Capture.
