Recording allows a registered MiTeam Meetings user to record a meeting. Recording a meeting is useful for those who could not attend the meeting and for those who want to refer to what was discussed in the meeting. The recordings are stored in the cloud in MP4 format.

Recording a Meeting

During an ongoing meeting, any registered user can start the recording by clicking the Record icon () in the control panel. However, only one user can record a meeting at a time. A Preparing to record icon appears in the top of your meeting screen indicating that Meetings is setting up the cloud recording.

An audial notification indicates that the recording has started and a message (as shown in the following image) indicates that the recording has started.

Note:

Only one user can record a meeting at a time.
If the recording fails to start after you click , the following error will appear. To start the recording again, you must refresh the application and click .

Stopping a Recording

During a meeting, only the participant who is recording can stop the recording at any given time by doing either of the following:

Click the stop icon () from the recording indicator in the top of your screen
Click the Stop icon () from the control panel.

The recording will stop, and will be saved to the cloud. A confirmation message (as shown in the following image) indicates that the recording is saved.

The following table lists the impact of various scenarios on an ongoing recording of a meeting.

Accessing a Recording

A registered user or a guest user can access the recordings for a meeting by using the following steps:

Note: Recordings of a meeting that is not an Invite-only meeting can be accessed by any user (registered or guest) who is a participant of the meeting or by a registered user who has the meeting URL, which could pose a privacy issue. To prevent this, Mitel recommends that you create Invite-only meetings as recordings of an Invite-only meeting can be accessed only by registered users who are invited to the meeting. Registered users and guests without an invite will have access to the recordings only while the meeting is in progress and after they have joined the meeting. It is also recommended that after a recording is complete, you download the recording to your device and delete it from your meeting for privacy reasons.
