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 can also upload a recording to a Mediasite presentation while it is being recorded. If you are using Mosaic Pro, you can also record scheduled presentations created by your Mediasite administrator.
You have the option of using a compact overlay view when
preparing for a recording and when you start recording. Toggle between this view
and the full view by clicking the Enter 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.

Record scheduled presentations (Mosaic Pro)
Mosaic Pro allows you to record scheduled presentations. These presentations are created using schedules. A schedule, typically created by your Mediasite administrator or content manager, is a collection of user-defined settings used to automate the presentation creation and publishing process. Schedules include the following information:
• Presentation properties—basic details, folder, publishing and delivery options, player settings, security, and actions
• Presentation naming convention (based on schedule name)
• Recurrence settings—when and how often presentations are created
• Email notification details
Scheduled presentations are listed on the Presentations page. When a new presentation is available for recording, you will receive notifications when you successfully connect to Mediasite and five minutes prior to the scheduled start time.
You must be connected to the internet
and have signed into Mediasite to access and receive notifications for scheduled
presentations.
To record a scheduled presentation:
1. Launch Mediasite Mosaic from your desktop and navigate to the Presentations tab.
2.
Use the filter to view your scheduled presentations. If you do not see your
schedule, click Sync schedules to connect to Mediasite and retrieve the
latest scheduled presentations.
