Tips for Recording Meetings

When recording a meeting, consider the following:

  • If you use the Video Pod to broadcast audio to meeting attendees, all audio is recorded automatically.
  • The meeting recording is assigned a URL and added to the Recordings page associated with the meeting room in Adobe Connect Central. To play a recording, you need an Internet connection, the recording URL, and permission to view it.

Record a Meeting

  1. Go to the meeting you want to record.
  2. Click Meeting.
  3. Click Record Session at the beginning of your meeting.
  4. In the Record Session dialog box, enter a Recording Name and summary for the meeting recording.
    1. While recording a meeting, if your audio is disabled, enable it by selecting the Turn On Audio Conference option.  Or, you can continue without audio by click the Record Without Audio button.
    2. A recording icon appears in the menu bar to indicate that the meeting is being recorded.  You can pause an ongoing recording.  Anything you do in the live meeting during the time you pause the recording is not recorded.
    3. If a problem occurs during the recording an err message appears in the upper-right corner of the window.  You can try to reconnect to the conference audio, record the meeting without audio, or stop the recording. 

Stop Recording a Meeting

  1. From the Meeting menu, click Stop Recording.
  2. The meeting recording is saved and is available for playback at any time.

  3. Click General.

About Editing Meeting Recordings

After recording a meeting or training session, you can use the built-in editor to remove sections of the recording. The editor is useful if the recording contains periods of silence or unnecessary information. Following are some tips for editing recordings:

  • To edit a meeting or virtual classroom recording in the Content library, you must have Manage or higher permissions for the recording. If you created the meeting or virtual classroom, you have these rights by default.

  • To edit a recording under Meeting > Recordings or Training > Recordings, you must have Host permissions. You can create an index using time tags to enable participants to easily view and navigate through the recording. You can also edit/delete the existing auto-generated time tags.

    In addition, you can also create sections within a recording using chapter markers. You can hide the names of participant interacting over chat and retain the content of these interactions.

  • The last edited version of the recording is saved and includes all information from earlier editing sessions. The link to your recording does not change after editing. Users given the link and rights to access the recording see the most recent version saved, including any edits that were made.

  • Multiple users can open a recording in edit mode at the same time. However, after one user saves their changes, others editing at the same time receive an error when they try to save their changes.

  • In addition, you can also hide Chat Pod, Attendee Pod, or Q&A Pod or a combination of these pods. To protect the privacy of individuals, you can also hide the names of the attendees.
