You can share CaptureCast presentations outside Capture Portal or Capture Central by copying and pasting their URL and embed codes. In Capture Portal or Capture Central, click on a live event in Manage Live Events or click on a published presentation in Manage Presentations. Expand the Sharing section and use the Embed or URL information to share the presentation.
Instructors may want to invite guests to present lectures or events from remote locations. If guests are not members of the institution, it is difficult to provide them with Capture Software and Capture credentials. Web Capture is a light-weight solution to this problem.
All published CaptureCast presentations are published into folders in the Manage Presentations area. All folders are created in the Manage Folders area.
TipIf you do not want viewers to access published presentations in their unedited form, create a password-protected folder and save presentations there when you publish. After your edits are complete, you can move the presentations into a public folder.
In Capture Portal or Capture Central's Manage Presentations area, you can manage published presentations by modifying a presentation's details, adding security conditions to a presentation, and accessing the Producer tool to edit a presentation.
Once you complete a live webcast or an offline recording, the CaptureCast presentation is available for publishing to Capture Portal or Capture Central. If you are publishing to Capture Central, you can only perform post-production editing in Capture Central and on-demand viewing is only available if a presentation is embedded in Learning Environment course content.
If you do not have access to a network or you are creating a presentation that does not require a live stream, you can record a presentation offline and store it on your local hard drive for future publishing to Capture Portal or Capture Central.
If you are webcasting a live presentation, use a high-speed internet connection to ensure quality streaming for viewers. There should be at least 1 Mbit/s of upstream and downstream network bandwidth availability for SD videos, and 3+ Mbit/s for HD videos. Additionally, network ports for RTMP (Port 1935) and RTMPT/HTTP (Port 80) must be open.
Access controls are permission settings that allow users in Public, Basic, Publisher, or Moderator roles to access published presentations that they normally cannot interact with in Capture Portal or Capture Central. For example, an instructor with Publisher permissions can create and publish a presentation and then set access controls to allow only a specific group of students with Basic permissions to view the presentation.
Independent learning objectives and independent activities are competency structure elements that were once associated with parent elements that have been deleted. Independent elements are also known as "orphans". Activities associated with independent learning objectives are not orphans unless you delete the learning objectives.
