As you know, the Eve University Class Library is an invaluable knowledge base for new capsuleers. This guide will illustrate, step-by-step, how to record, encode, edit and upload your class recordings. We encourage unistas to record classes they attend.

Recording

Disabling sound notifications

Important: Please make sure you have all sound notifications disabled in Teamspeak settings. Please see the following images.

Recording a Class is simple enough; Once you join the Class.E-UNI channel on teamspeak, simply click the Recording menu on your teamspeak and select Start Recording.

You will be prompted to select the directory and enter the name of the file (if you often record classes, you might want to include some details like class date and name to prevent confusion)

File:Teamspeak save recording to.jpg

Congratulations, barring the ever-present possibility of connection problems, you should now be successfully recording a class.

Editing & Encoding

After you record the lecture, you might need to edit it: the class might have started late and you want to remove the first 2 mins or maybe you forgot to stop the recording and you recorded 30mins of silence. Whatever the reason, if you need to edit the file, you can use a freeware software such as Audacity, its a free, multi-platform and easy to use software and in the following sections we'll demonstrate its use. You can always use other software if you prefer to do so.

Editing

Installing Audiacity & Lame Encoder

First we'll download & install Audacity and install the lame encoder for audacity, we'll need it to export our class audio files into mp3 later on. You can download audacity from this link and lame encoder for audaicty from this link. Please check this page for instructions on properly installing the encoder.
