Upload & Record
When you want to add a new video to LearnIT you have different ways of doing so. You can add new media both from My Media Library or directly to a specific course from Course Media. If you have a video file ready you can simply upload it. But when you're about to record a video LearnIT Media has a variety of tools you can also use to do this.
Adding new videos is done by clicking the "Add New" button from your media library or course media, and selecting the method you need.
Media Upload
The most straight forward way to add a video through a simple upload page. You can upload any video file (a MP4, MOV, AVI etc.) from your computer. You can drag and drop a file onto the page, or click "+ Choose a file to upload" to browse to a file on your harddisk.
Desktop Capture
Allows you to use the "Kaltura Capture" software package to record your webcam and/or screen directly on your computer. With some advanced features, such as the opportunity to allow viewers to see both your webcam and screen recording at the same time.

- Automatic slide detection and creation of searchable chapters
- Support for software management install
- Seamless uploading to Learning and Content Management Systems and Kaltura MediaSpace
