Hello all. I'm Kate, joining from the Washington DC area.
I'm very excited for this feature but haven't had a chance to test it out yet. Will the video of the signers be easily visible in recordings?
Also, as our deaf and hard of hearing participants often take advantage of the chat feature in meetings, is there a plan to have chats recorded or be able to print a transcript of the chat as well?

Making signer video available in recordings isn't currently available, but it's definitely something we're working on - great feedback. Chats do already stick around after the meeting is over, so you can continue the conversation: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/chat-in-a-teams-meeting-64e2cb91-8a11-4781-94ea-fbb23f2b922f- Katherine ImholtDec 13, 2022Copper ContributorThanks for the info on recordings. As for the chats, I often find that I need to share recordings and chats broadly after the event. For example, I record a training session or demo that I post to Stream for anyone in the department to be able to access long-term. That's where we lose the chat features and where the sign interpreter recordings are necessary.
