Kaltura is a desktop application that is on all managed Syracuse University computers to create, edit, and share media created for presentations and lectures. 
To access Kaltura Capture make sure to go to video.syr.edu and logging in with you NetID information.

First make sure the application is downloaded to your computer by either searching for it in windows search bar at the bottom left of your search or by opening the start menu and scrolling until you find the Kaltura program.

Once Kaltura is open, you should see the following screen: 

Next you can click on "New recording" to prepare for your session. Note: This does not start the recording, it will open the following window to allow you to prepare to start your new session.


This allows you to prepare your session under three main tabs–screen, camera, and audio. 

 Screen Settings

When under the "Screen" tab–the "Full Screen" option selected allows your session to capture your entire screen. This means anyone who will be watching the video will see the entire screen and what you are doing, even if you switch to a different application (Ex. using PowerPoint and then opening a Word document).

If you select "Select Area" instead of "Full Screen" you will see the following appear:

The white dotted line box shows what area will be captured during your recording session. You can also change the size of the area by clicking on the arrow next to the size.

 Camera Settings

When under the "Camera" tab–you can choose which camera to use for your session if you have more than one available.
 

 Audio Settings

When under the "Audio" tab–you can choose which microphone to use for your session if you have more than one available.

 Device Settings

At any point if you would like to stop recording you screen, camera, or audio–you can click on the blue icon of the option you would like to turn off.

When off the option/options you currently have off will become greyed out and show a line going through the icon. 
Once off, if you would like to turn the option back on you can click on the greyed-out icon and the option will turn back on. 

Recording Your Session

 Recording

Once you are ready to start recording your session press the red button to begin recording:

If you need to pause your recording but you are not yet finished recording your session you can press the pause button to temporarily pause your recording; when you are ready to resume recording press the red button:

When you are finished recording your session you can press the stop button; it will then ask you "Are you sure you want to stop this recording?"–you would end the recording to clicking on "Yes, Stop it":


After you stop the recording of your session you will see the following page appear: 

This is where you will change the name of your session to the title you would like, add a description of the session, or any tags to the video that you have created. 
Once all the information is filled out to your liking–you will have the option to "Save" or "Save & Upload".
Note: when clicking "Save" you are saving the session you recorded to the current computer you are using, and you can upload the video at a later date. If you choose to "Save & Upload" you will save the video but immediately start to upload it to your online account. 

 Saving

If you save your session without uploading, you will see the following screen:

If you click "Save & Upload" it will immediately start uploading your session to your online account:

 Uploading

Once you want to upload your video session you have created open the Kaltura application again on your computer and click "Upload" on the session you would like to upload to your account:
