Many Kaltura MediaSpace users are familiar with CaptureSpace, a tool for creating screen capture videos that seamlessly upload to Kaltura. Kaltura MediaSpace licensed CaptureSpace from a third party in order to provide this functionality to users. Kaltura will be ending support for CaptureSpace in June. UW-Madison will be transitioning to Kaltura's new screen capture tool, Kaltura Capture. To facilitate the transition process, UW-Madison users will be able to use either CaptureSpace or Kaltura Capture during the preliminary transition period as we phase out CaptureSpace. Some dates to be aware of:

• Tuesday, April 16th: Kaltura Capture was made widely available to campus.
  
• Friday, May 17th: The CaptureSpace installer will be disabled to encourage users to move to Kaltura Capture. Users who have previously downloaded CaptureSpace can continue to use it until June 14th.
  
• Saturday, June 1 – Kaltura no longer supports CaptureSpace. Users can continue to use it through June 14 but will only be able to receive limited support from the Learn@UW team.
  
• Saturday, June 15th: Uploads from CaptureSpace to MediaSpace will be disabled as Kaltura support for CaptureSpace ends. Users will need to use Kaltura Capture from June 15th on. (Note: This date has been updated based on new information from the vendor. Previously, the last day of support was set to be June 25th.)
