Navigating to the settings
Click on the Bluedot-icon in your browser extensions, and then on the three dots in the right corner of the window:
You will find the following points:
Video Quality
You can record your video in 720 and 1080p. 720p is recommended for longer meetings, 1080p for the meetings with a lot of screen sharing.
Recording type
You can record both video/audio, audio, or get only the transcript without a recording:
Keep in mind that what you can record can be limited by your subscription-package.
Recording processing - storage
The third point gives you the option to choose where your recording will be stored while it is being processed:
Local processing is recommended in slow or unstable internet environments. Instead of uploading in real time, the recording is temporarily stored in your browser during the meeting. Once the meeting ends, it’s automatically uploaded from local storage to the cloud, ensuring nothing is lost due to connection issues.
If you select auto-processing, the system will automatically "decide" which storage to use, based on the quality of your connection.
Recording notification
You can choose whether or not you want to notify participants about recording.
If you opt for that, the participants will get a Google chat message:
Meeting recording control
You can show or hide the recording control:
This is what it looks like in practice:
a) with meeting control
b) without meeting control
Screen recording control
If you are recording your screen, you can choose whether or not you want the control visible.
If enabled, the screen recording control will appear at the bottom left corner of the screen:
If you disable it, you can still have control over your recording by clicking on the Bluedot-icon in your extensions:
