Zoom Recording

The recording of our meeting today has audio but no video. Does anyone know what caused this so I can avoid it in the future?
Thanks!

Hi @JamiP, was this a local or cloud recording? Was the playback of the recording just a black screen or no video file?

I am having the same issue, but it was a local recording? And it is completely black.

Welcome to the Zoom Community! We're glad to have you here! Please try using a different media player, such as VLC, as the issue may be related to the codec used by your current player.

It was a cloud recording. The screen is black but all audio is heard.

Thanks

Resolved the problem. Operator error! Never noticed before the options to see screen, audio, or chat.
