The recommended way to record is to use Panopto Recorder, which is installed on all PCs within the University. You can also access Panopto online via your Blackboard module area. There are several ways to use the Ladibug in Panopto, you can select the Ladibug as a standalone camera or you can record the main screen with the video feed from the Ladibug.
