If your organization is using Mediasite
Cloud, you must use Mediasite authentication.
As part of the Record Now applications, you will specify how users are authenticated and the default values for ad-hoc recording.
When configuring your Podium PC for use with Record Now, you can enable automatic login using a Windows system user and then use Mediasite authentication for Record Now. With this first option, faculty members will enter their Mediasite credentials to access Record Now.
Automated login and Mediasite authentication
To support automated login and Mediasite authentication, you will:
1. Use IT tools to set up a Windows system user to automatically log into the Podium PC.
2. In the “Record Now” application settings, select “Mediasite” as the authentication method.
Single sign-on
You can also set up Podium PCs to use single sign-on, which means faculty members log into the Podium PC using their Windows credentials and are authenticated into Record Now using those same credentials.
To support single sign-on, in the “Record Now” application settings, select “Windows” as the authentication method.
If your organization is using Mediasite
Cloud, you must use Mediasite authentication.
To specify the “Record Now” application settings:
1. Click Settings > Application Settings > Record Now.
2. Select how users will be authenticated when launching Record Now from a Catch device from the Method drop-down list:
