Hi Roger, If your only thinking about a video recording, then you're right.
Matterhorn specializes in the capture and treatment of video plus graphics as separate media files, and the processing of these two files allows different operations, such as automatic segmentation of slides and ocr to text to make the recording searchable. So there's more to it than just posting a video link. Also, automatic operations, such a scheduled capture, can't be done with your digital cam.
