How to Use MegaMeeting.com Recording
Document Version 6.4.7
   
 
Installing the Recorder Application
 

Installing the Files:

 
  • After obtaining your secured download location and passcode from your sales person or trainer, unzip the files to your desktop and double click the file icon:
 
 
  • At this point you choose the codecs or components you wish to install (Both are recommended where applicable)
Which Codecs should I choose?
 
We recommend that you choose BOTH codecs for the installation, as this will give you the full range of options available. If the NEMO installation doesn't start automatically, you may need to do the installation manually by going to the installation directory on your C: drive and manually running the NEMO install from there.
 
 
  • The latest builds of the components you selected will then be downloaded on your system and will be installed AFTER the recording application.
 
 
 
Once you have installed the recording application and the necesary component codecs, you may now move on to the 'Recording and Playback' section below.
 
 
 
Recording and Playback
 
  • After the installation simply double click the desktop icon to begin:
  • The icon will now be running in your system applications tray
  • Right click the icon to access the controls
  • You can start recording your screen immediately by clicking 'Record' or you can adjust the output parameters by clicking on 'Preferences', which will give you the following options:
 
1) You can choose the type of output format here, either the compressed WMV format or variable quality AVI format. If you are concerned about file size or if you are on a Windows machine and have a very long recording planned, WMV will be approx. 1MB per each minute of recording. If you would like to adjust the frame rate or quality of your recording, select AVI and adjust the sliders below...
2) Here you can choose to record sound on your recording as well as adjust the frame rate and frame quality as well (AVI format only)
3) You may also choose the output folder for your recordings (the default is shown above)
 
  • After you click 'Record' you are now recording your screen. To stop or pause simply right or double click on the icon which has now changed to red to reflect your on or off status (See image below)
Off
On
 
  • Once you stop recording it will ask you where you would like to save the recording
 
 
 
 
Using the Recording Application
 
The following is small guide for using the Recording Software, including a list of known bugs that are being addressed but should be known.
How can I record the VOIP Output?
 
 
There are 2 options to accomplish this:
 
Option 1: You can purchase an inexpensive audio cable such as the one shown below:
 
 
  • Simply connect the microphone and speaker jacks with the cable, forming a forced sound loop by which all the sound associated with the speaker is considered an input by the microphone.
  • We recommend that you login to the meeting you wish to record on a seperate computer (with recorder installed) and hold your meeting from another. This way the recording computer will record all VOIP including the sound from the microphone on the main computer.
 
Option 2: Purchase a Sound Card with 'Wave Out' Compatibility or check your Sound Card to see if you already support 'Wave Out'
 
 
If your sound card settings do not show 'Wave Out' or 'Wave Mix Out' in the controls checkboxes, your sound card DOES NOT SUPPORT WAVE OUT. You will need to obtain a sound card that supports WAVE OUT or use option 1 above to record the VOIP audio from other users besides yourself in a meeting.
 
 
 
Recommended Usage:
 

- WMV = Windows Media Video – This format is approximately 1MB per minute output but is only viewable on Windows machines.
 

- AVI = Standard Audio Video Interleave – This format is the standard, raw video most players can view. (Warning: Using Uncompressed, full quality video can yield extremely large file sizes!)
 
- Record in WMV for long recordings
30fps (10fps if viewing video streams)
Cannot adjust quality in WMV
- Record in AVI if you cant view WMV
30fps (10fps if viewing video streams)
Set slider to 80-100% quality
 
- Set the quality to recommended range or you may experience fuzzy output
 
- Pause the recording briefly and start again whenever possible to allow the video to sync
 
- Always play the video in full screen mode to see its actual quality.
 
You can expect a normal file size range output of the following:
WMV: 1-30 mins = ~30mb or 1mb per minute normally 1+ hours = ~100mb+
AVI: 1-20 mins = ~60mb (compressed) ~160mb (uncompressed)
(AVI is NOT recommended as it produces extremely large file sizes)
 

Please Note:
- Some system icons (i.e mycomputer and mynetworkplaces) may turn grey randomly during recording, they will return to normal when recording is stopped.
- The mouse may move jerky during recording, this is normal and is being looked at.
- Currently MAC based systems cannot playback formats
