Missing MP4 File

I recorded a zoom meeting locally and didn't provide me with the usual MP4 recording.  

I can not open the other files. Is there any way to get the MP4 and if not, can the recording be converted?

Hi, @melissahansen22 

You are able to generate one mp4 file, right?

Your problem is that you want to convert the other recording to mp4?

I ran into the same problem myself, but
I moved the "recording.conf" file out of this holder and then did a manual conversion and it worked.

Convert using the Zoom desktop client

For versions 4.6.10 or higher, you can't convert local recording files by double-clicking the Zoom files. You must follow the steps below to manually convert the files:

  1. Sign in to the Zoom desktop client.
  2. Click the Meetings tab.
  3. Click the Recorded tab.
  4. Select the meeting topic with the local recording.
  5. Click Convert
