Create an Ad Hoc Recording

If you want to record your screen only or camera only, click on the video icon to turn off either the Primary or Secondary Input resource.

If you selected one input (either Camera or Screen), Kaltura Classroom creates a single video. If you are using the default settings or selected both Primary and Secondary Video , two videos are created. This will generate a dual screen player to display the two videos simultaneously. 

After your inputs are configured, either by using the default settings, or you have selected your input(s) and defined all the settings, you are ready to record.
