Kaltura Personal Capture in Moodle can be used to record lecture videos that can be easily added to Moodle. You'll need to install a small application first. The installation process only needs to be completed the first time you attempt to upload a Personal Capture video.
IMPORTANT: if you're using the old version called Kaltura Capture, please install and use Kaltura Personal Capture instead (outlined below). The old Kaltura Capture is no longer supported and has had problems with audio not syncing with the video.
IMPORTANT: Kaltura Personal Capture works best when recording your primary screen. Recording a secondary screen can result in audio that is out-of-sync with the video.
