Kaltura – Lecture Capture
FlexOS (aka Kaltura Lecture Capture) is an application installed on Extron SMP streaming devices located in select classrooms across all of the BCIT campuses. FlexOS is ideal for when you want to record live classroom lectures or special events. Footage recorded from these devices automatically connects to your personal Kaltura My Media video repository after you punch in your employee id number (A0) into its interface.
For information on or questions related to FlexOS, please contact BCIT Audio Visual Services.
A Lengthy Note About Downloading FlexOS Footage
When recording using FlexOS please note that the SMP device actually captures two separate streams of footage: a primary source and a secondary source. These sources exist as two independent .mp4 files under the hood and when viewed from a Kaltura player are actually played together simultaneously.
In the event you wish to download this footage from your Kaltura My Media repository you will have to download each source independently. If you would like these two sources to be combined into a single file then you will have to manually combine them using external software like Adobe Primer. Alternatively you contact either Media Works in the BCIT Library or the Video Production Team in the Learning and Teaching Center who can help you out with this.
