Is anyone else using Wimba primarily as a lecture capture tool? We are in year 2 and experiencing several problems. I need to know if they are unique to our campus.

Ernie,
I am exploring lecture capture technology right now and welcome hearing about your experiences. My research currently is limited to Echo 360 as a possible solution.

We have been through a couple of Classroom Capture systems and have settled on NCast for instructors that want to capture video camera content as well as computer content. And for computer and voice capture only we us Camtasia. We then export the files to Flash for posting on the servers.
We have been using NCast and Camtasia for a couple of years now. About 80% of what capture is Camtasia sessions.

We have both Echo360 and Accordent capture stations here for use on campus, as well as an open source lecture capture tool known as Openeya (which can be found at openeya.org.) Prior to switching to the Echo we were using Apreso.

I am not directly involved in supporting lecture capture but know that Wimba is used campus wide for distance ed with some “podcast capture” (several departments are also using Camtasia, Echo360, etc.).
(From my perspective the real trick for wide deployment of these capture systems is backend automation so that every capture session isn’t a video production, editing, transcoding, and publishing project.)

I would agree with Don; we use Camtasia Relay because it seamless, very user friendly, and there is no post. It processes the captures, and automatically uploads them in multiple formats to multiple sites including iTunes, and afs website, and a archive server. It then sends an e-mail to the user with a link so they can see the video, and post the link in the LMS or website for their students to see if they are not on iTunes, or need a higher quality playback then an m4v.
We also use Wimba capturing interactive sessions online.
