CarmenZoom Recordings

You can record CarmenZoom meetings and save them in the Zoom cloud (recommended) or directly to your computer. Only hosts can record meetings, unless they allow others to record via Manage Participants.

In compliance with the Ohio State Digital Accessibility Policy and Minimum Web Accessibility Standards, all multimedia presentations must provide captioning.

Using the cloud recording option will allow you to use the audio transcript function to automatically transcribe the audio of a meeting that you record to the cloud. This option is not available using the local recording option. See more tips on recording good quality audio for accurate transcripts. Once your cloud recording is ready, you can edit the transcript within Zoom or edit the transcript within Mediasite if you plan to host the video there long-term.

Zoom could recordings are available for 120 days. Learn more about downloading and sharing your cloud recordings long-term. 

Cloud Recording (Recommended)

When you record a meeting and choose Record to the Cloud, the video, audio, and chat text are recorded in the Zoom cloud. The recording files can be downloaded to a computer or streamed from a browser.

Your account is set to Record active speaker with shared screen by default. You can view and change your account’s recording layout options at CarmenZoom.osu.edu under Settings > Recording > Cloud Recording. The video layout of the participant or host that started the recording can also determine the look of the final recording.
