The university has a wide range of classrooms and lecture rooms. Large or small, rooms with flexible seating formats, rooms specifically intended for exams, lecture theatres and so on.
The classrooms administrators of Facility Services provide support for users of these rooms so that their activities run as smoothly as possible. This includes tidiness and cleanliness in the rooms and halls, arranging the furniture, dealing with equipment faults, putting presentations on the computer and replenishing supplies such as pens, etc. Unless stated otherwise, this is the software used in the lecture rooms. Our rooms are equipped with technical facilities to stream or record lectures. More information can be found under Manuals streaming and recording.
In order to make the use the classrooms as pleasant as possible for everyone, it’s important that users leave the rooms in a clean and tidy condition:
- Would you like a different furniture arrangement? That’s no problem of course, but please return the furniture to the standard arrangement when you’ve finished.
- Please return all the used materials (board wipers, chalks, whiteboard markers, waste bins etc.) to their designated places when you’ve finished.
- Please throw away your waste.
- Eating and drinking is not permitted in classrooms.
Is something not working properly? Then please inform the Service Desk of the building as soon as possible.

Manuals
- General manual Streaming and Recording
There are several options to stream or record your lecture. Please find below more information about streaming and recording. For a quick start we have enclosed various manuals to support you.
TECHNICAL FACILITIES IN LECTURE HALLS
- The equipment consists of: Logitech web camera with a built-in microphone on a stand, a Stream Deck cabinet on the table, a digital whiteboard in the room, fixed computer (CZ-PC).
- The camera and microphone can be connected via USB to the CZ-PC in the room or the participant's own laptop.
- If available, the sound of the wearable microphone (Revolabs) can be used instead of the webcam microphone.
- The equipment can be used with Canvas Big Blue Button, ZOOM, MS-Teams, etc.
- Stream Deck Control panel (small black box on the table) available for selection and possible operation of the webcam when using CZ-PC.
REMARKS
- Whiteboards (digital, standards, chalkboards) (cannot be read/seen by remote students (whiteboard is not connected))
- Sound quality webcam-microphone is sensitive and small noises like moving a chair and/or talking by on-campus students cause a lot of noise nuisance for the remote student!
- Streaming (and recording): online meeting via Canvas (Big Blue Button) or Zoom or MS-Teams.
GENERAL REMARKS
Be aware that hybrid teaching situations (and recordings) require more organisation and preparation than a 'standard' lecture.
Also, pay attention to the privacy of the students; see website Privacy-and-tools/#recording lectures.
One's own device (laptop, MacBook) can be connected to the system (cables on the teacher's table). The image from this device can then be projected into the lecture hall. The CZ-PC can also be used to project a presentation, video etc. in the lecture hall. The webcam can be connected to the CZ-PC as well as to your laptop (blue cable on the lectern).
Manuals when using your own laptop or lecture room PC can be found below under Manuals.
RECORDING
Recording PowerPoint
You can either use your own device or the CZ-PC to record your (live) lecture in PowerPoint. You can use this function to make a simple screen recording of your PowerPoint presentation with audio that goes along with each slide. See the TELT website for more information.
Recording OBS
The CZ-PC is used to record the audio and video from the webcam and the microphone. Afterwards, the recording is put on the desktop as a file. The camera can be placed in such a way that the desired image is recorded. It is possible to have a preview on the monitor. Only the image from the webcam is recorded. If a presentation or the writing board is also important, it must be in the webcam image; please note whether the text is still legible (think of size and contrast). The webcam has HD resolution, but this may not be sufficient to record a presentation properly.
STREAMING (AND RECORDING)
BBB (Big Blue Button)
The CZ-PC is used to stream (and to record) the audio and video from the webcam and the microphone. BBB is started from Canvas Conference (via the web). By using the web version, the login credentials are not stored on the PC. Afterwards, the recording becomes available via Canvas.
Zoom
The CZ-PC is used to record the image and sound from the webcam and the microphone. Zoom is started on the CZ-PC with the web version. By using the web version, the login credentials are not stored on the PC. The recording becomes available in your UT Zoom account.
Microsoft Teams
The CZ-PC will be used to record the image and sound from the webcam and the microphone. MS Teams will be started on the CZ-PC with the web version. By using the web version the login credentials won't be saved on the PC. The recording becomes available in Sharepoint or Onedrive, but also becomes available in the meeting chat or channel conversation.
- Use of own laptop for streaming/recording
The rooms at the UT are equipped with a display unit (LCD screen, beamer/projector), a fixed PC (CZ- PC), a connection for your own device and speakers for the sound of your presentation, film etc.
Larger rooms (from ca. 50 persons) also can amplify the voice of the lecturer with a Revolabs lapel microphone.
The AV installation is controlled by a panel. In most cases, this is a button panel with 10 buttons. In some halls, the panel has been implemented as a touch screen (Waaier, Technohal, NoordHorst).
If you want to use your laptop for streaming and/or recording you can use the Logitech webcam and the Revolabs lapel microphone (if available).
STARTING UP THE SYSTEM
- Connect the laptop using the Kramer spider cable so that your image from the laptop is paired with the presentation screen. This spider has a connection for USB-C, HDMI, DisplayPort and Thunderbolt/mini DP. Then connect the blue or black USB cable from the webcam to your laptop.
- Start up the AV system using the panel provided.
- Fire up your laptop and the software (BBB, Zoom, MS- Teams) you want to use for streaming.
- In this software, choose the camera you want to use: the built-in camera or the Logitech webcam.
- Also, choose the desired microphone in the software: in this case, the webcam microphone is the least suitable. If available, choose the Revolabs wearable microphone (UMC202HD) or your laptop's built-in microphone. Use the software (BBB, Zoom, MS-Teams) as you normally would.
SHUTTING DOWN THE SYSTEM
- After the lecture, turn off the AV system using the panel.
- Put the microphone into the charger, it fits one way.
- Unplug your device and take it with you.
- Use of lecture hall PC for streaming/recording
The lecture rooms at the UT are equipped with a display unit (LCD screen, projector), a fixed PC (CZ-PC), connectors for your own device and speakers for the sound of your presentation, film etc. Larger rooms (from ca. 50 persons) also can amplify the voice of the teacher with a Revolabs wearable microphone.
The AV installation is operated by a panel. In most cases, this is a button panel with 10 buttons. In some halls, the panel is implemented as a touch screen (Waaier, Technohal, NoordHorst).
The rooms also have a webcam, which is operated by a separate button panel (Streamdeck) when using the CZ-PC.
STARTING UP THE SYSTEM
The webcam is first connected by inserting the blue or black USB cable into the connector on the desk or on the front of the CZ-PC. The system is then started by turning on the CZ-PC. The CZ-PC works with a universal lecture hall account and can therefore be used as-is. It is better not to log into Windows under your name as this may leave personal data on this PC.
The AV system is then started up using the panel.
If you want to use your device for a presentation or demo, you can connect it using the cable (Kramer spider) that is on the desk/table. This spider has a connection for USB-C, HDMI, DisplayPort and Thunderbolt/mini DP.
The signal from your device will appear on the presentation screen
(takes precedence over that of the CZ-PC).In larger rooms, a wearable (lapel) microphone (Revolabs) can be used.
This is standard in the charger on the desk.SHUTTING DOWN THE SYSTEM
- After the lecture, switch off the AV system using the panel.
- Close all web browsers on the CZ-PC. Transfer any (video) files to YuJa or USB stick and then delete them. Close the CZ-PC. Do not forget to take the USB stick with you.
- Replace the microphone in the charger, fits in one way.
- Disconnect your device and take it with you.
- Yuja - Canvas - Streaming and recording
Using lecture hall PC (CZ-PC) with Yuja (Canvas)
TIP: using YuJa to record your lecture with PowerPoint
Setup: Teacher wants to record a guest lecturer with their PowerPoint presentation. This in lecture room Carre 3F, using the teacher's own laptop (not the guest lecturer's). Using YuJa Capture to capture the room's webcam and the PowerPoint presentation.
Expected result: A YuJa combined recording with webcam and full screen PowerPoint presentation.
Actual result: A YuJa combined recording with webcam and presenter view from PowerPoint. Not the end of the world, but annoying.
Most likely cause of the mishap: Laptop is set to Duplicate the screen of the laptop on the room screen. YuJa Capture is started and captures webcam and laptop screen. Now PowerPoint is started to present in Presenter View. At that moment, unexpectedly, PowerPoint enables the second screen for full screen presentation (even though the laptop is set to Duplicate screen - this is overruled by PowerPoint!).
YuJa is still capturing the laptop screen, which now does not show the presentation, but the Presenter View. And because YuJa Capture is minimized while capturing, you cannot immediately see that that has happened.
Also, after the presentation ends, the laptop is back in Duplicate mode - adding to the confusion.
Solution: Either do not use Presenter View in PowerPoint if you do not need it; turn off automatic extend in PowerPoint Options > Advanced; or deliberately set your laptop yourself to Extend screen, then set PowerPoint explicitly to show full screen presentation on external screen (= room screen) and setup YuJa Capture to capture webcam and the external screen. This is not the default setting for YuJa capture, but is easy to change (default is webcam+internal screen). The new setting can even be saved in YuJa Capture as a preset ("Profile") for future use.
The recording into YuJa works perfectly well, and the result is a nice interactive video where students at any time during watching can switch among the captured streams (side by side, picture in picture or switching either full screen). It is just that, if one is not aware that PowerPoint overrules the Duplicate screen setting, YuJa captures the screen you do not want...

- Microsoft Teams (streaming and recording)
MS Teams can be used to stream and make recordings. With MS Teams, both camera images and presentations can be recorded directly.
Camera recordings are made using the webcam on a stand in the hall. Make sure the webcam's blue or black USB cable is plugged into the connector on the table or on the front of the CZ-PC.
The sound is recorded either with the webcam microphone or if present via the lapel microphone (Revolabs). The choice for this is fixed. The webcam can be moved at will so that the best possible recording can be made. Think about the privacy of the students.
MS Teams runs in a web browser. The web version has the advantage that your credentials won't be left behind on the CZ-PC, the web version is similar to the app version but has some limitations, see below.
Beforehand you can create a meeting or conference under your UT account with an invitation to all students you want to participate.
Starting up the system
The black button panel (Stream deck) is used to use MSTeams. Pressing the Teams button will launch a web browser to MS Teams on the CZ PC.
To sign up, use your UT account (utwente.nl mail address) and your account password. After that there will be a request for Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), so don't forget to bring your smartphone.
In MS Teams, you can open your meeting and start the lecture. You will be able to share a screen from the CZ-PC through the web browser.
You will need to have the content available on the CZ-PC (USB stick or something). With Open share tray, you get an overview of what you can share. If you choose to screen sharing your camera image will be lost. So the students won't see you anymore, but they can still hear you. When you end screen sharing you'll need to turn your camera on again in the MS Teams bar. When you use the option of opening a PowerPoint via Browse, you will still be on screen.
Recording
Recordings can be made via the menu ... | Start recording. For privacy reasons, you can choose to activate the option ... | Turn off incoming video. You do not see your slides or shared content in your teams web browser, but the recording neatly includes the shared content.
You can stop recording by selecting ... | Stop recording.
Shutting down the system
You stop the meeting in a familiar way by activating the red phone hook. A possible recording will appear in the Chat window. The recording can be viewed using ” ... ” and then Open with Sharepoint and can be downloaded to YuJa.
Remarks about the web-version versus the app-version of MS Teams
Unfortunately, the web version of MS Teams has some limitations:
- no possibility to create breakout rooms.
- no sound when sharing the screen (e.g. videos).
- no background blur or adjustment.
- OBS (recording system)
With OBS, recordings are made using the webcam on a stand in the hall. Make sure the webcam's blue or black USB cable is plugged into the connector on the table or on the front of the CZ-PC.
The sound is recorded either with the webcam microphone or if present via the lapel microphone (Revolabs). The choice for this is fixed. The webcam can be moved at will so that the best possible recording can be made. Think about the privacy of the students.
Starting up the system
To use OBS, the black button panel is used. Pressing the OBS button starts OBS on the CZ-PC. The buttons on the panel also change.
The Preview button opens a window on the desk monitor that shows you the camera image from the webcam. This allows you to position the webcam correctly so that you can record the desired image. Note: if you also want to record a presentation, this also has to be in the camera image, there is no possibility to put your presentation directly in the recording.
To start recording, use the Record button. The button start showing the duration of the recording. When finished stop the recording by using Stop record. The recording is now saved on the desktop with a date and time stamp. You can start and stop recording as often as you like, a new file is created each time.
Shutting down the system
When you have finished recording, use the Back button. The files of the recordings are on the desktop of the CZ-PC. You can transfer them to YuJa or on a USB stick. Afterwards please delete the files of the CZ-PC.
Remarks/FAQ
- Streamdeck does not show the main screen, only a vague logo. After starting up the CZ-PC it takes a while (1 to 2 minutes) before all software is loaded and Streamdeck shows the main screen.
- Is there a red cross through OBS on the Streamdeck? Then OBS has been closed on the CZ- PC. Go to the Windows search window next to the Windows Start icon and key in OBS. The OBS Studio application will be found. Start it and then minimize OBS by clicking the - in the title bar.
- Webcam not found? It happens that the webcam is not found by the system. Then go to OBS on the toolbar of the CZ-PC and select the Logitech Brio camera under the heading Sources. You can see from the preview screen whether the system now has the right camera. Minimise OBS by clicking on the - in the title bar.
- The camera is in use by another application (message: Camera in use). E.g. MS-Teams or Zoom are already running via the web browser. Log out of Teams/Zoom and close the web browser. Close OBS (X in the title bar) and restart it as indicated at 2.
- Is the image smaller than the preview screen? Go to OBS on the toolbar of the CZ-PC and click on the camera image on the main screen. A red border will appear around it. You can use the vertices to drag the image to its maximum size. Then minimize OBS by clicking on the “ – “ in the title bar.
