Chapter 14-Recording Conferences

Recording Link Layout

When the video layout of the conference is set to Auto Layout, the recording of the
conference will now include all the conference participants and not n-1 participants as in
previous versions.
In the new Auto Layout algorithm, the Recording Link is counted as a “participant” and
therefore it is excluded from the layout display used for the recording. The layout used for
the other participants will behave as in the “standard” Auto Layout behavior.
The Recording Link Layout can be changed during an ongoing conference in the same manner
as for any other conference participant. For more information see the RealPresence
Collaboration Server 1500/2000/4000 Getting Started Guide, "Participant Level Monitoring” on
page 13-21.
The default settings for Auto Layout for the conference and the Recording Link are
summarized in the following table:
The default settings for Auto Layout of the Recording Link cannot be changed, and the Auto
Layout flags do not apply to the Recording Link Auto Layout default settings.
