Record a meeting



A host can record a meeting or training session in case some participants missed it or want to replay it. When played back, the recording shows exactly what the attendees saw and heard. Everything that happens in the room is recorded, except for the Presenter Only area and breakout rooms. You can start and stop recording at any time, so you decide what content to record. A host or presenter can create a reference archive of meetings and make the recordings available to attendees.

If you use VoIP, either through the Voice Talk feature or the Camera And Voice pod, to broadcast audio to meeting attendees, all audio is recorded automatically. The audio broadcast from the Voice Talk and the Camera And Voice pod is VoIP.

To record an audio conference call, you can use your speaker phone and your computer microphone as recording devices. If you select the Record Audio From Speaker Phone option when your first start recording, audio broadcasts from the Camera And Voice pod are disabled. All audio input to your computer is captured and recorded but is not broadcast to participants. (Because audio is not directly integrated with the meeting in this case, the quality may be lower than using a direct method.)

If you have integrated your audio conference using an audio conference bridge, the recording includes audio from both VoIP options and the audio conference. The Record Audio From Speaker Phone option is not available.

If you are using the Premiere audio conferencing bridge, be sure to begin your recording from within Acrobat Connect Pro (do not begin your recording by using a Premiere telephone key command).

Note: If you are using Premiere audio conferencing service, and Premiere is unable to create the audio recording when you begin recording a meeting, you will receive an error message.

The meeting recording is assigned a URL and added to the Recordings page associated with the meeting room in Acrobat Connect Pro Central. To play a recording, you need an Internet connection, the recording URL, and permission to view it.

Note: Acrobat Connect Pro administrators can change recording settings to adhere to standards for governance. These settings affect how meetings and training sessions are recorded and what is recorded. For more information, see Working with compliance and control settings.
