Recording video and audio from Surface Hub
Hi Michael (and all)
We are finally searchable and downloadable from the Windows Store.
Simply open up the Store on your Surface Hub and search for "COLLABORATION RECALL"
Please note - as a reminder, this is a BETA app. We already have a few changes on the way but we are keen to work with any Corporations, Government bodies, Education sectors, Sporting Institutes or just anyone really that are keen to be part of BETA program.
The BETA has a 5 min recording restriction but you can save to USB or S.Hub storage.
please email INFO@BinaryBorn.com to be included in the BETA program.
Thanks
-Tim.
Hi All
Just a quick reply.
Thanks to those that have downloaded BETA v1.0 of Collaboration Recall and the wonderful feedback provided. We are aiming to release BETA v1.1 before xmas 2017 to remove an audio clipping bug. The BETA will still have a 5min limitation to recording.
For a full blown version is expected to be released in Feb 2018.
- Lite Version with 5 min capture (or) Full Version Unlimited time recording.
- Displays available recording time based on local and USB attached storage.
- Updated description in Windows Store.
- File naming options.
- New media player GUI.
- Remove quality capture options – it will only be default as 1080p.
- Info Section.

Please note - although this was written specifically for the Surface Hub, it can be downloaded and installed onto any Windows 10 device (meeting requirements) from the Windows Store.
We welcome any Skype discussions with dealers, re-sellers, vendors, software distributors, Surface Hub fleet owners, support staff .... or just anyone really wanting the ability to record on the Surface Hub via a 100% native application. A 2018 roadmap is available for vested enquiries only.

Hello Tim, thank you for this wonderful news and for your app. This is really something I have been looking for and I am looking forward to the full version!
I have tried the app and it works smoothly, I have just noticed that texts showing on Surface Hub as normal-size are shrinked when the video is previewed on the smaller screen - this is understandable but is there any way how to avoid that for example smaller video windows (when using Skype for Business) is shrinked into low quality?
Also I understand from the description of the app that the recorder can also record captures from Surface Hub cameras. Is there any way how to choose what to record (screen or cameras or both)? Or does it simply mean that once I put video from camera on the Hub screen (e.g. by using Skype for Business), it will be captured as a part of screen capturing?
Thank you in advance for your answers, I have only now found your replies to my initial query, so I am eager to test the app as thoroughly as possible.

Hi Juraj,
Sincerely sorry for the delay in the reply. Notifications aren't working but I'll sort that out.
We've updated the BETA a few times since then and we're about to release FULL PRODUCTION which will have unlimited recording.
For this Version 1 full release is all about enabling the capability of purely recording which hadn't been achieved. We do have many, many features planned for Version 2 (not till 2nd half of the year) and we rely on feedback on which features users would like to see in order for us to focus on that development. For instance, we know the GUI is awful ... so that will be addressed in Version 2.
Re: Recording for Version 1. Simply think of the old WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get).
It's native ...
55” Surface Hub = 1920 x 1080
84” Surface Hub = 3840 x 2160
With regards to camera recording ... yes for version 1 it's only what's being displayed in your Skype session. If you have full screen cameras in Skype showing it will record that. If Skype is just to the side in default operartion it will just record the entire screen with the skype on the side. WYSIWYG.
However in version 2 we will have an option to turn on the camera if not in a Skype meeting. We have it working in alpha already.
Please see http://binaryborn.com/ for FAQ :-)
Or email INFO@BinaryBorn.com for a quick reply.

Tim Presland, what will the price be on the final version when it comes out?
Hi Allan,
Sorry again for the delay as I mentioned in another post.
Price is close to be officially released when we hit full PROD.(timestamp 28.2.18) .... we should have been released in Feb which was the aim but things blow out. We will be released in March 2018 .... fingers crossed ;-P
I can say it will certainly be much, much cheaper than any hardware options that we know users have hooked up to get recording.
If you wish to find out more details and our road map please contact INFO@BinaryBorn.com - we can do a skype call if you want? This invite is open to others too :-)
Thanks.
Sorry to everyone waiting on full release Collaboration Recall.
It's COMING!!! May 2018
We've been actually ready for a month now but we've got a hold up with the Microsoft App Store process. If anyone has any experience with ABN/GST with Dev Dasboard please ping me ... it's driving us crazy!!! We're full registered with ABR .... but MS support aren't accepting our details and can't shed any light other than for us to check our ABN which I've talked to 4 times now and all is ok from their side.
I'll post in another thread for help.
