For context: If you start recording after another person on another computer has started recording, does it bump that person off recording?

Two people in the same Zoom Meeting?

Cloud recording or local recording?

I just updated my question so it is more accurate.

To answer your questions: yes two people on different computers on the same account in the same Zoom meeting. And I am interested in the local recordings.

Hello @SJDA,

If recording is enabled for the Zoom meeting then anyone who presses the recording button can record. It will not bump the other participant off of the recording that they are making. The recording server looks for the device node ID on the backend for the differing participants to engage the recording server. The screenshot attached is an example of me and another participant recording at the same time. This is a screenshot of the participant window during a session.

Thanks,

Brandon
