Kaltura - the leading video technology company

Kaltura Personal Capture offers users the ability to capture both screen and camera in just one click. It also includes a new automatic slide detection feature - if a user has a PowerPoint presentation in presenter mode when recording the screen, Kaltura Personal Capture automatically detects and captures it, making videos more searchable and discoverable.  Kaltura also automatically captures metadata from slides and audio, which are made immediately searchable as well.

Kaltura Personal Capture encourages more content creation and makes it easier than ever before. It seamlessly uploads new videos into the user's My Media folder and videos are made available in an organization's Learning and Content Management Systems as well as the Kaltura MediaSpace video portal, making it easy for employees, students, faculty, and other users to create professional video with multiple feeds, including slides. Anyone in the organization can make engaging videos, without specialized equipment, in just minutes.

"Based on years of experience, we've now created what we believe is the most user-friendly, attractive video capture solution in the market," says Michal Tsur, Kaltura Co-founder, President & General Manager - Enterprise & Learning. "After receiving feedback from thousands of users around the world, we're delighted to empower them to create engaging visual video content at the click of a button. Personal Capture allows to easily create visual walk-throughs, and video presentations opening the floodgates of video content creation and consumption across an organization. This is particularly of value for teaching and learning, training, product demonstrations, proposal walkthroughs and more."

Kaltura Personal Capture has endless uses. For example, educational institutions can use it for video assignments, assessments, feedback, demonstrations, course content creation, blog posts, administration communications, alumni outreach, and sharing information between institutions. Businesses can create videos for knowledge sharing, training, internal communications, sales presentations, customer and partner enablement, and more.

"Kaltura Capture shows the natural evolution of capture software at Kaltura. A streamlined interface and functionality without compromise make for an easier to use, more intuitive tool for our faculty and students," said Raul Burriel, Streaming Media Coordinator, Academic Technology at Oregon State University.
