not end in the video crashing during playback, and as such can be deduced that it is a
bug in the coding of the bookmarking function.
Other miscellaneous features of the CaptureLive HD that were tested are the capabili-
ties of the touchpad and the CaptureLive HD box itself as well as the FreeSpeech MP-
FS-RX1 microphone system. On the front panel of the CaptureLive HD there is a
screen that displays the menu, settings and most of the necessary information with the
controls to move in the menu on the side. It also has the controls to record, pause and
stop capturing/streaming as well as HDMI- and USB-ports for the camera and hard-
drive. The back-panel hosts the majority of ports, i.e. the HDMI-PC port as well as the
camera feed and microphone ports, among other things. The menu is fairly straightfor-
ward with most options located under their expected sub-headers and the settings are
some-what easy to use.
The CAPTURE-TPMC-4SM Touch Screen Controller is primarily used as the controller
device for the Capture HD but it also doubles as the preview screen, as seen in Figure
7. The Controller worked well during testing, is fairly easy to use, is wireless and has
decent range, so it can be moved around the lecturing space or even mounted into a
desk or on the wall, with specific mounts. With the Controller it is possible to change
most settings and decide on the capture and streaming options, such as the IP-address
for the stream. There are several buttons on the sides of the screen which can be pro-
grammed to do a variety of things; however this option requires the use of SIMPL Win-
dows, Crestrons’ development environment that the CaptureLive HD is based on. A
person knowledgeable in SIMPL Windows programming is also needed for using the
script in order to create custom settings, such as a push-once to start function or pro-
gramming custom profiles to certain buttons on the controller. Unfortunately this was
also not available in the basic version of the Capture HD that had been obtained for
testing and the license would need to be purchased separately, on top of teaching to
use SIMPL Windows. [21]
