Teaching modes in Lecture Capture-enabled rooms

These rooms have only a single projector screen or display. Lecture Capture only captures the screen, so usually the presentation on the teaching PC, but this could also be your laptop, or the document camera, if selected on the touchpanel. There is no camera, so no video of presenter.

These rooms have two projector screens or displays. Lecture Capture can capture one or both screens (as above) - you can mix and match the inputs via the touchpanel. There is no camera, so no video of presenter.

These rooms have a single projector screen or display, and a camera. Lecture Capture can capture just the screen, just the camera, or both. You do not need to select the camera on the touchpanel as it is always captured if both inputs are recorded (see Presentation & Video), or the right-hand input is recorded (see Video only).

This is more complicated as EchoVideo can only record 2 inputs. Therefore, in this room, you can record just one screen, both screens, just the camera, or one screen and the camera. For the camera to be captured, camera capture must be enabled on the touchpanel - this switches the right-hand input from recording the screen to recording the camera. We recommend starting the touchpanel in 'single display' mode, and then using camera capture and selecting the best camera preset for your use.

• Requirement: Any teaching room with EchoVideo
• Summary: Record audio of presenter only
• Create a podcast by using the lapel microphones and/or handheld microphones which are linked to both the room speakers and to lecture capture.
• You can still use the teaching PC and other equipment whilst recording, but only the audio will not be recorded with this option.

• Requirement: 1 Display (i.e. any teaching room with EchoVideo)
• Summary: Record 1 screen and audio of presenter
• Record 1 input (including microphones and any device audio) from:
  • the teaching PC, commonly a Presentation but could also be other software such as Teams.
  • room equipment such as the document visualiser, Solstice, or a laptop connected via HDMI, VGA lead (depending on availability)
• Use the touchpanel on the lectern to cycle between the available options for the input.

• Requirement: 2 Displays (and no camera*)
• Summary: Record 2 screens and audio of presenter.
• Record any 2 inputs from the in-room equipment - teaching PC, document visualiser, Solstice, or HDMI connection to a laptop
• Use the touchpanel on the lectern in 'dual mode' to cycle between the available options for the left and right inputs. Inputs can be used and recorded in conjunction i.e. teaching PC on the left display - document visualiser on the right display.
• *In rooms with cameras, the presenter must check that camera capture is OFF on the touchpanel to use this affordance.

• Requirement: 1 Display and a camera (rooms may have 2 displays, but only 1 display can be captured in conjunction with the camera)
• Summary: Record 1 screen, video and audio of presenter.
• Record 1 input from the in-room equipment - teaching PC, document visualiser, Solstice, or HDMI connection to a laptop.
• Use the touchpanel on the lectern in 'single mode' to cycle between the available options for the room input, to control the camera, and in some rooms to turn the camera capture ON and OFF.

• Requirement: camera (rooms will also have other equipment but this will not be captured)
• Summary: Record video and audio of presenter.
• Record the video from the in-room camera.
• In single display rooms, camera is recorded automatically with this option.
• In dual display rooms, use the touchpanel to turn the camera capture ON and OFF via the camera control button.
• Use the touchpanel to control the camera's pre-set positions as well as pan, tilt and zoom functions to focus on different areas of the room.
