This guide explains how to start recording an online meeting organized with kMeet, Infomaniak's ethical and free video conferencing solution, in order to obtain a video of the session stored on kDrive Infomaniak (this will only happen when a user stops the recording).

Introduction

• Video recording
  • is done on the server side
  • does not put any load on the participant's computer who started it
  • is in .mp4 video format
  • has a maximum duration of 3 hours.
• The video will not be available if everyone leaves the video conference without someone stopping the recording.
  • In other words, steps 7 and below are mandatory for the recording to work!
