Kaltura

Kaltura is an enterprise video solution for designed for education. The platform allows users to host and share video and audio content. Kaltura also offers recording solutions, such as Kaltura Capture for desktop recording and Kaltura Mediaspace Go for mobile recording. Kaltura offers integration with Canvas as well as their own public-facing hosting platform called Mediaspace. Any video uploaded to Kaltura is accessible by its owner both through Canvas and Mediaspace.

Video Retention Notice

Kaltura automatically generates multiple transcoded versions of each video, ensuring compatibility with a broad range of playback devices. These additional transcoded versions of a video are automatically removed from storage after two years from their last playback, retaining only the initially uploaded video in Kaltura's storage. Furthermore, if a video remains unplayed for a period of four years (with a minimum viewing duration of 10 seconds), the original video is also automatically deleted. It is recommended that videos expected to remain dormant for several years be archived in a location other than Kaltura for long-term storage.

Availability

Kaltura is available for use by Baylor faculty and staff through Canvas and Mediaspace.
