Using Kaltura Capture

UNM Learn’s integrated media tools include a stand-alone desktop recording app, Kaltura Capture.  Kaltura Capture gives users the option to record two inputs simultaneously:  to mix and match combinations of cameras, screens, and microphone.  Files that are uploaded and linked in courses can now be viewed with an interactive rich media player which allows users to toggle the screens and choose between several layout options.

A Word about My Media...

My Media is the only place for downloading Kaltura Capture.  Aside from allowing you to access Kaltura Capture, My Media is a central repository for all the media files you have uploaded.  It is also the only place to delete, edit, and share ownership of your media resources.

As of Spring 2020, My Media is available from the Tools module on the right side of the My Courses screen as one first logs into Learn.  The link for My Media has also been added to existing courses.

If the My Media link is missing, here is how to add it:

    1. Go to your Course Menu (top left part of your screen). 
    2. Hover over the plus sign ( + ).
    3. Click Module Page.
    4. Give it a Name (Ex. My Media).
    5. Put a check in Available to Users.  (If it is just a short-cut for you, then leave off the check.  And remember, you can use the drop-down menu to the right of the item to toggle its visibility on and off at any time.)
    6. Click Submit.
    7. Click your new link to open it.
    8. Click Add Course Module>My Media  -  Add.
    9. Scroll down and click Okay.
