Recording Long Zoom Session (voice lesson)

Montein

Question: I want to record a lesson via Zoom and simultaneously stream it, but also make it available as soon as possible for participants who can't attend at the scheduled time.

 

Does anyone know the best way to do this?

 

I know that I can record on Google Drive via Zoom, but I've noticed that the conversion process takes a long time, especially for a 3.5-hour lesson (which might take 7 hours?)

 

All tips are welcome.

Hi @Montein recording, encoding and uploading does require some processing time. Zoom cloud recordings generally take about two times the duration recorded to process - this because of the size of the files and processing power required when dealing with long video recordings.

There are some services out there that provide cloud recording with isolated video feeds, however the time to process will also still be a factor: https://www.epiphan.com/connect/
