Capturing Your Experience

 

 

Usage example: A presenter may discuss a single image at length that contains no recognizable text for OCR. The presenter could send Chapter events during the discussion of that image to create chapters so the audience can navigate to a specific portion of the discussion.

Caption

A Caption can be added to a recording by sending a Captions event. These captions appear in the closed captioning area typically occupied with closed captioning text that appear when the CC button in the Polycom Rich Media Player is pushed.

Usage example: A presenter can take advantage of this feature by adding captioning notes to display to the audience. This could be useful to display text to highlight key concepts or to display a mathematical formula.

Search

Search terms can be added to a recording to make any segment of a presentation searchable.

Usage example. A presenter with a speech-only discussion will not have automatic chapter creation or searchable text. The presenter may wish to insert searchable keywords pertaining to various segments of the discussion so the viewer can search for that portion of the presentation.

URL

A URL event can be sent during the recording if a presenter wishes to add a URL as a resource during a presentation.

Usage example: A presenter may have a web resource available not available in a presentation slide. To make this URL available to the viewer, the presenter can send a URL Event to provide a link of the online resource to the viewer.

NOTE: To use the URL Event requires a custom script to be written to launch a browser window.

Mark In/Mark Out

The Mark In and Mark Out events are used for post production of a recording. Sending these events during a recording will mark the timeline with "In" and "Out" and is viewable in Microsoft's Expression Encoder. If the presentation requires editing, an editor can view the timeline for these "In" and "Out" marks and remove portions of the video accordingly.
