How do I.T. conferences record and synchronise video, audio and slides?

Question

Our company has been recently encouraging knowledge sharing via fortnightly presentations (usually on Powerpoint) with respect to tools, technologies and development methodologies. We would also like to record some of these presentations to allow for sharing between sites and to new starters.

I recently watched this presentation and found the way the video triggers slide changes on the site to be a great way of accomplishing this.

Is there a definitive tool-stack that can be used to accomplish something like this? Or is this something we would need to develop in-house using a set of existing tools? How would you do it if you were going to start your own conference?
