Video recording (local) - how to record only guests, not host

I want to be able to video record only my guest, even if I speak. Any ideas what to do?

Hi @MargaretB! Welcome to the Zoom community, we're happy that you're here 😊

 

A local recording records from the viewpoint of the recorder, so I would suggest pinning your guest on your screen so that the recording only shows them. Hope this helps!

Also, I know this was OK a while back and something got changed. I cannot recall what that change that was made was...

Thank you. Now the recording record both of us: me, when I talk, and my interlocutor when they speak. I want just that person video.
