How to record your computer screen with Panopto Capture

Issue/Question

How can I record a screencast from my computer and make it available for viewing?

Description

Panopto Capture is a web based tool allows a user to easily record audio, video, and screens or applications. A user can access Panopto Capture directly within their browser instead of downloading a desktop application. Once recorded, videos are automatically added to your Panopto media library.

Environment

These steps are intended for both Macintosh and Windows operating environments. Panopto Capture currently works with latest version of the Chrome, Firefox, and Edge web browsers.

N.B. If you are using Panopto Caprture on a classroom computer do not try and use Safari as recording audio does not currently work
