How do I only record my shared desktop screen and not the video feed from other participants?
Hi Shane
The issue was happening on my laptop screen when presenting, but I have found a way to get my solution.
By setting all participants as Attendees and also disabling their video feeds, I have found that when I record the meeting it only shows the shared screen I am presenting.
I did notice that when someone had typed out a question, it appeared on the side of the video, but the way to fix that for me might be to disable IM and let people ask questions via audio.
Either way I have my solution which I had to trial and error to get!
Thanks again for all your input!
Do you have a second monitor to drag the elements to that you don't want recorded?
Otherwise, presenting your desktop, will share - therefore record - everything on it.
If you're doing a PowerPoint presentation, choosing the "share PowerPoint files" option will limit the viewer and the recording to only the slides (even if you minimise it in your view or move it around, the other people will still see only the slides).
Or if it's not slides, have you tried sharing a window to share just a specific application you're showing to people?
