Users may record videos using their own mobile device, such as a smart phone, and upload the videos directly from the device to CLAS. The steps may vary depending on the operating system and system configuration of the mobile device. Usually, the steps are:
- Use the video mode in the camera application to record video.
- Once the video recording is complete, open the web browser and log into CLAS.
- Once you are in CLAS, the process of uploading your video is similar whether you are using a mobile device or a desktop or laptop computer.
Note: Depending on the size of your video and the traffic on the server, it may take a few hours for your video to be ready on CLAS.
