Panopto Capture is a completely browser-based screen capture system that allows you to capture audio, video, and your device's screen or application windows in a recording. Panopto Capture is a good alternative to the Panopto desktop recording app, particularly on classroom Mac computers.
Before you begin, you may need:
- A device with a web browser, a microphone and (if you want to capture video) a camera
- A high-speed Internet connection
- An account on Bryn Mawr's Panopto site
Create a Panopto Capture video
- Log in to Bryn Mawr's Panopto site (if you haven’t accessed it previously, see Panopto: Get and log into your account).
- Click on Create button and select Panopto Capture.
- Panopto Capture will open in a new browser window.
- Click on the buttons for Audio, video, and Screens and Apps to change these settings. Consult Panopto: Add a presentation or web content to a recording and Panopto: Record with multiple video sources if you need help with these features.
- Before you record, click on Settings if you want to change things like screen resolution, outputs, video layout, background.
- Once you have configured your settings, press the Record button. To stop your recording, press Record again.
- A new page will open as your video starts processing. If you would like to redo your recording, you can hit Redo or Record New. Otherwise, Panopto will proceed with processing.
- By default, the recording will be stored in your My Folder folder on Panopto. If you would like to change this to a different folder, select the drop down arrow under My Folder and search for the folder you'd like to use.
- Once your video is finished processing, you can decide who will be able to access it via sharing settings.
