Remove timestamp from recording?

[NancyMorris]

I see a previous question from 2 years ago about this situation and I'm wondering if there have been any changes?

I just completed a whole series of recordings but did not realize the "add a timestamp to the recording" option had been checked, and it certainly wasn't onscreen while recording. Can I get it off the recording?

If not, does anyone have solutions for masking the timestamp?

Thank you 🙂

Hello, Nancy. The timestamp showing in the recording can't be removed from existing recordings. The timestamp is part of the recorded file. If you have the skillset, you could hide the timestamp with video editing software, but you would also be hiding part of the screen, which may include the speaker or screen.  I added an image showing a timestamp in a recording.  Removing the timestamp would remove my hand.
