Installing Personal Capture from My Media

1. Navigate to your My Media page in Canvas.
2. On your My Media page, click the Add New button in the upper right and then select Kaltura Personal Capture.
   
3. This takes you to the Kaltura Capture Desktop Recorder screen. Under the "Using Kaltura for the first time?" section, select either Download for Windows or Download for Mac, depending on your computer. This will begin the download process.
   
4. Once you have finished downloading the Personal Capture installer file (named "KalturaCapture_<version_id>.msi") onto your computer, run it directly from the download dialog box on your browser. (Don't worry, it's safe!) In Google Chrome, this appears in the lower-left.
