Once you have finished preparing for your presentation and configuring Mediasite Mosaic, you are ready to start recording. You can start recording from My Mediasite or you can record offline and upload to My Mediasite later.
You have the option of using a compact overlay view when
preparing for a recording and when you start recording Mosaic automatically goes
into this view. However, you can exit it at any time by clicking the Exit
compact overlay button .
Take the following into consideration when using the compact overlay view:
• The compact overlay only shows the camera preview input and audio meters.
• You can move the compact overlay around as needed. However, if it is placed on the display you are capturing, it will be recorded.
• You cannot rename presentations while using the compact overlay view.
