Kaltura is a powerful video sharing service that works directly in Blackboard and will allow you to upload videos, capture your screen/lectures/instructor perspective and record from your webcam. The Kaltura video player is very robust and will allow your media to be easily viewed on all major browsers and on an iPad, iPhone, or Android device.
What’s New?
Kaltura Personal Capture is the newest version of the recorder and is now available in Blackboard for download.
Please note: The desktop video recording tool Kaltura CaptureSpace Lite will no longer be supported by the vendor starting June 1, 2019.
Faculty can request automatic captioning for their Kaltura videos. The Ordering Captions Instructor Guide provides step-by-step assistance on how to order captions. For more information and answers to FAQs about captioning, read the Requesting Captions FAQ article.
