recording without participants visible

[drschofer]

How do I record a meeting in just speaker/presentation mode (record just me and any screenshare/presentation and participants if they speak) without having the participants' thumbnails/videos displayed?

Have you received any replies to this post?  I have the same question/concern.  Thank you.

Not a peep. Been focusing on making sure in speaker-only mode since then. Not convinced it's a 100% fix.

I would like to know it as well. Even I click on Focus mode, if someone is with camera on, they show in my recordings.
I tried everything. I am almost changing for another tool.

Hi everyone, 

See if this article gives you some ideas: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/360025561091-Recording-layouts

I have something to add. Set the thumbnail video (that appears when someone is sharing the screen) to show only the speaker (the button is a rectangle at the top of the thumbnail) so that only the person speaking at the time is included in the recording with the shared screen. This works fine for me.
