Add schedule for a Mosaic user profile

Use Management Portal to create schedules for users recording presentations on their desktop using Mosaic. The schedule and the presentations created with it will be associated with the user profile and will be visible to the user when they log into Mosaic. Like recording with a hardware Recorder, using a schedule automates the presentation creation process for Mosaic users using pre-defined presentation properties. Once the recording is complete, the user can upload their presentation to My Mediasite manually or automatically.

 For more information on enabling this feature, contact your sales account representative or our technical support  team on the  Customer Care Portal.

Considerations when creating schedules for Mosaic user profiles

     Mosaic must be licensed to use this feature.

     User profiles must be validated and assigned Mosaic Operator permission.

     You will not specify stream settings or server groups since Mosaic uses the values specified in the My Mediasite application settings (Settings > Application Settings > My Mediasite).

     Live broadcasts are not supported.
