Q: using zoom's native recording feature
den1k opened this issue · 6 comments
@kastldratza I'm looking into using zoom's native recording feature instead of ffmpeg to record the screen. Before I go down that rabbithole I was curious if you have tried this and IF you did whether you abandoned it in favor of ffmpeg?
@den1k No, I haven't tried using the native recording function yet. But feel free to let me know if it works the same way.
It does and actually allows to omit ffmpeg and possibly pulseaudio as well. Another benefit is that zoom's local recording also saves a chat transcript and can record separate audio tracks for each participant which is helpful for transcription.
It's definitely possible if zoomrec supported user/pw params in order to log in with an account that has recording privileges. I made some tweaks to trigger native recording and this is also possible if the bot user is first given recording permissions by the host.
@den1k Added 'Sign In to existing Zoom account' to Roadmap. After that, a workflow can be implemented for using the native recording.
