• Lets people whom were absent view the meeting.

Recording

To quickly record a meeting, simply select Instant Recording from the File menu. In Expert Mode you have to open the Viewer first.
Then, decide upon an encryption key (optional for un-encrypted e-meetings):

A VCR-like panel will appear. Press the Record button to start recording.

Join the e-meeting a few minutes ahead so that your computer gets all the Whiteboard pages before you start the recording (Whiteboard pages with a * in the name are not available on your local machine).

A counter that shows how far into the recording you are (in hours, minutes and seconds).
Start recording.
Pause.
Stop (also closes the recording controls).
Same as the Stop function.
The recording mechanism will show up in the Participants module as VCR rec [name].
That changes to VCR REC [name] when it is recording and back to VCR rec [name] while it is in Pause mode.
To see the whole name of the user who is recording you just point at the recording member.

You can close the Viewer window while recording if you so desire.

Saving the recording
Pressing Stop will cause this dialog to appear. If you want to keep the recording, simply press Save and choose a location and determine a name for it. The amount of disk space needed for a typical meeting or lecture varies depending on how much video was used during the recording, a good rule of thumb is between 100 and 300 MB per hour.
