Camtasia Relay Tutorial:

Publish to Screencast.com

Screencast.com is the place to share your high-quality videos, documents, presentations, and images—simply and professionally. We never compress or alter your content...so what you upload is what viewers see. And with four levels of privacy controls, you get to decide who sees what.

Benefits of publishing to Screencast.com:

• Presenters can easily manage, organize, and delete their presentations.
• Presenters can attach additional materials to the video. For example, a viewer can download notes, the actual presentation slides, etc.
• Screencast.com is hosted by TechSmith and is helpful for customers with limited bandwidth and media storage space.
• Presenters can exercise individual control over how their content is protected.
• Presenters can allow viewers to comment on their presentations.

How to publish to Screencast.com

Every Camtasia Relay presenter (end user) needs a Screencast.com account. To obtain Screencast.com accounts, visit http://www.screencast.com. Accounts are not created via Camtasia Relay.

By default, presentations are stored in the Camtasia Relay folder on Screencast.com. Camtasia Relay Administrators can create multiple Screencast.com destinations for organizational purposes, and can also create multiple folders for Presenters. Presenters may also create their own folders on Screencast.com and assign them to their profile.

Presenter Accounts on Screencast.com

In most cases, presenters will supply their own username and password.

To allow presenters to supply their account information:

1. Go to Profiles > Overview.
2. Select the profile that will publish to Screencast.com and click View/Edit Profile .
3. Check Camtasia Relay on Screencast.com from the Publish Settings list, and click Save.
   
4. Click the Edit (pencil icon) button. Change Use default account to Use presenter account.
   
5. Click Save.

Inform Presenters

Presentations will not be published until presenters sign in to the Camtasia Relay website and enter their account information. Ideally, introduce presenters to the Camtasia Relay website and have them enter their Screencast.com information before making recordings.

Presenters that make a recording and upload a presentation before the information is entered receive an email with a hyperlink and instructions to solve the problem. Solving the problem is a two-step process. First, the presenter must enter their Screencast.com account information on the Camtasia Relay website. Next, re-submit the presentation for processing via the website.
