Need to Keep Host Camera as Default View in Recording

Hello!

 

We have a professor who uses a Logitech Rally System whose camera faces his students to facilitate group learning/discussions. He prefers to start the meetings on his laptop (to show himself & the front whiteboard) and invite the Zoom Room Logitech device to the meeting as a co-host. Due to the mics in the Logitech Rally Bar, he turns off his own laptop mic so he isn't picked up twice. So, although he is actively talking during most of the meeting, since the mic is tied to the Logitech camera's view of the students, his recording automatically switches to this as the primary view. Is there a way to set his laptop camera to always be the default of the recording (especially since that device is the host) instead of defaulting to the camera associated with the audio? 

 

So far, I haven't found a clear solution to this. I realize it probably brings up other issues (of not showing other users who are talking) but I just want to know if this is even a setting he could choose. 

 

Many thanks!
