Using Kaltura Express Capture

Body

Overview

With Kaltura Express Capture instructors can make video/audio recordings directly on the web browser. It doesn't replace Kaltura Capture, as it doesn't have the ability to record your screen (screencast). Express Capture is most useful for making short videos to provide audio/video feedback, a quick video/audio introduction, or other simple recordings that do not require your screen.

Note: Safari is not a supported web browser for Kaltura Express Capture.
