For which teaching scenarios is FHPcast suitable?
FHPcast or Opencast is the right tool for you if you want to record a lecture live in the lecture theatre. Opencast is only suitable to a limited extent for highly interactive lectures. It is particularly suitable for (teaching) lectures in which there is little interaction with the participants.
Opencast records the beamer image shown, e.g. presentations and videos. It is also possible to use the room PC (operated via the Wacom board) or a visualiser. The sound is also recorded, i.e. any sound that you play via your laptop, as well as your voice via the lecture theatre microphones.
