Professors Embrace Lecture Capture
Over 70% on Oregon State campus want to use the tech-
nology, survey says.
Lecture capture is increasingly in demand on college
campuses.
For example, roughly 70% of faculty members who responded
to a recent survey at Oregon State University (OSU) said they
would like to use the technology to record their classes and
offer the recordings for review by students.
Don DeMello, Coordinator of Classroom Technologies, whose
department conducted the survey in May, says he believes
acceptance is so high because the university has made it very
clear that its instructors own their lecture material and make
the final decisions on how the recordings are used.
OSU takes a conservative approach to other aspects of the
program as well. “We don’t envision capture as a lecture
replacement or archive, nor do we intend to replace the
classroom experience,” DeMello explains. “We see it as a
way for students to review materials and, when necessary,
catch up when they are forced to miss a class.” Capture can
be especially helpful to student athletes, who often must
miss Thursday and Friday classes when they travel to away
games.

units Crestron produced, installing them in pilot classrooms in
January and March of 2012. He and the OSU faculty liked what
they saw, and by May he had ordered 19 more systems.
“The Crestron Capture system gives us a much better quality
image at a price that’s lower than our in-house system,”
DeMello explains. “If we’re recording images from PowerPoint
or from a document camera, the difference is night and
day–the images are so much sharper and more readable.”
DeMello says, too that the new system was easy to implement
and very easy for the instructors to use (see sidebar).
Automating lecture capture
According to Raul Burriel, an Information Technology
Consultant at OSU, the goal of the implementation is a capture
system that’s almost 100% automated.
By the end of the summer, instructors will go to a web page
that’s tied into Crestron RoomView, where they can schedule
the classes they want recorded. On the day and times specified,
the system will begin and end recording automatically, without
any additional input needed from the instructor. The touch
screen installed in each classroom shows a visual confirmation
that the system is recording, but the instructor does not have
to change his or her routine in any way.
After class, the Crestron system automatically uploads the file
to the Kaltura server and triggers a script, written by OSU’s
Paul Lieberman, that identifies the recording and assigns the
content to the corresponding instructor. “The Capture unit
records the date, time and classroom location in the file name,
and the script compares the file name to a database we build
It’s also true that OSU faculty have had more than four years
to learn about the technology, since a capturing device has
been on the university’s main campus in Corvallis, Oregon
since 2008. Earlier this year, university administrators made
the decision to make capture a campus standard. Moving
forward, nearly every new or remodeled classroom at OSU will
include a Crestron Capture HD™ High-Definition Capture
Recorder.
Capture systems at OSU
The Media Services group at OSU began experimenting with
lecture capture long before the Crestron system was available.
During the summer of 2008 they equipped two classrooms
with the leading “rich media” systems offered at that time.
“We realized, however, that we could provide a better captured
image for far less money using a system of our own design.”
Media Service began equipping classrooms with a standard-
definition system based on a TV One scaler, a Canopus analog
to digital capture device and Apple Podcast Producer, which
uploaded the videos to OSU’s Blackboard™ server.
In 2010, they began using Kaltura MediaSpace, which pro-
vides enhanced video management and stores all captured
material in the cloud on a Kaltura server. By the fall of 2011
they had equipped 18 classrooms in this way.
In addition, OSU installed a Cisco Content Server, which can
record class material from several distance learning classrooms,
and they tied this system into the Kaltura server.
Yet when Crestron announced their Capture HD product last
year, DeMello was very interested. He ordered two of the first

audio/visual materials they show, whether from PowerPoint,
®
a Blu-Ray Disc®player, a document camera or perhaps a
specialized computer or video source set up for a specific
class or department. Yet with the addition of a pan-tilt-zoom
camera the system is capable of capturing the instructor’s
image as well, either full screen or as a picture-in-picture or
picture-by-picture insert.
The Crestron Capture system is also able to give instructors
the ability to start and stop recording when they choose from
the Crestron control panel installed in each classroom. Most
professors at OSU, however, schedule an entire semester’s
worth of recording at once.
According to DeMello, the switch to Capture HD has dramatically
improved the quality of the video recorded, capturing a 1080p,
24 frames-per-second signal, yet the new system installs
faster with fewer components and less cabling, lower power
consumption and a lower cost. “Our in-house system required
a Soundweb DSP, an amplifier, and a Crestron AV2 control
system in addition to the scaler and analog to digital converter.
We can replace all of that with just two units: the Capture HD
and a Crestron DMPS-300-C,” which combines a control
processor with a matrix switcher and sound system.
from our course catalog,” Burriel explains. “It’s very simple.
Essentially we know that if the video was recorded at this time
and in this place, it must be this class and it must belong to
this professor.”
The professor then decides what he or she wants to do with
the link. Most post it to the Blackboard page for that class only,
but they can delete it, archive it, or post it publically on OSU’s
MediaSpace website, which acts as a kind of YouTube for
university videos. DeMello notes that some have experimented
with more creative uses. For example, Media Services has set
up a way for OSU’s Veterinary Medicine department to
download the videos, which they are editing in Final Cut Pro for
future use.
“ The Crestron system is perfect for us, really
a game changer in terms of quality, simplicity
and affordability.”
Raul Burriel, Information Technology Consultant at OSU
The Crestron Capture system actually has more capabilities
than OSU needs. Because they intend the systems mainly for
lecture review, they capture only the instructor’s voice and the
