What can I do with Interactive Chapters and Slides?:
Interactive Chapters and Slides allow you to easily navigate videos in Kaltura Players. Chapters act like bookmarks. Use them to mark important parts of the video or easily navigate through a long video. Slides are automatically created when a presentation is recorded using the Kaltura Capture Desktop Recorder or can be uploaded from your computer.
To learn more about recording presentations using the Kaltura Capture Desktop Recorder, see the Kaltura Capture – User Manual.
