The Kaltura Capture desktop recorder enables easy recording in class, at home, or on-the-go with automated publishing and interactive viewing within Blackboard. You can automatically capture video, audio, and screen alone or in sync. Kaltura Capture can input two visual recording sources (screen or camera), and one audio recording source. With advanced features like live drawing and editing, you can enhance your viewer’s experience.

VERY IMPORTANT: Kaltura Capture minimum system requirements are Windows 7 to 10, 32-bit and above, or Mac 10.12 to 10.15., and requires a minimum of 4 GB of RAM. Try switching to the Firefox browser if you are having trouble downloading.
