Capture and Insert Media into Drupal

Within the text editor, click the Warpwire icon . A Warpwire interface window will open as a popup. The first step is to select the Media Library you'd like to work with. The drop down menu in the upper-right of the popup will list all of the Media Libraries that you have access to. Pick the one you'd like to insert files from, or upload/record files to.
