Recording a Meeting

Scenario

In a meeting, the host enables cloud recording, or the host or guests enable local recording to retain meeting records.

Cloud Recording

• Desktop client

  Choose Recording > Cloud recording in the navigation bar at the bottom of the meeting screen to start meeting recording.

  

• Mobile app

  Choose More in the navigation bar at the bottom of the meeting screen and touch Start recording to start meeting recording.

  

• You can start or pause recording during the meeting as the host.
• After the meeting ends, download the meeting video in MP4 format on the My Recordings page of the Huawei Cloud Meeting Management Platform.
• After the download is complete, double-click the play.bat file in the player folder to play the video or obtain the video source files in the player\offlineweb\assets\video directory.
  • If you download the HD video, the shared content and HD video source files are stored in two folders.
  • If you download the SD video, the shared content and HD video source files are stored in one folder.
• Audio, video, and shared content can be recorded.
• The recorded content depends on the continuous presence set by the host on the Management Platform, but not the feed viewed by a participant on the desktop client or mobile app.
  • If the host has set continuous presence, the recorded content is the same as the set continuous presence.
  • If the host has not set continuous presence, the recorded content will be either of the following:
    • Continuous presence automatically set by the system if the enterprise administrator has enabled Automatic continuous presence of equal-sized screens in AVC meetings under Meetings > Meeting Settings
    • A random feed set by the system if the enterprise administrator has not enabled Automatic continuous presence of equal-sized screens in AVC meetings under Meetings > Meeting Settings
