Pin video feed in a recording
When recording a broadcast, the subsequent video created shows the video feeds of other participants (and initials if there is no video feed). Please create a feature where the organizer can mark a video feed as the "Recording feed" so that video feed is full screen on playback.
Use case: Project boards; an external camera is viewing a project board - we want it to be full screen so users can have a clear view of the board rather than having it quarter of the size and 3 boxes filled up with initials of some of the participants.

Yes. why isn't this a thing? I am trying to give demos to my students who can't be online and it's frustrating that you can't , as the channel owner, simply pick a box , in this case mine, to highlight and pin full screen for the recording. Everyone else's box is superfluous. They can be little boxes along the bottom that's fine or i can choose to pin someone else if needed. But the fact that you can't do this is maddening and counter productive

Jumping on this bandwagon. I attend a somewhat regular meeting (I am not the organizer of the meeting) where I record the session for the organizer. There should be an option to be able to record just the video that the RECORDER has pinned. Or at the very least, record the 'view' of the RECORDER (I realize that it might be the pinned video along w/ the other attendees' tiles along the bottom - that'd be acceptable as long as the pinned video is full-size). The replayed video is often just too small when tiled with the other attendees.

is there still no way to record just ONE stream in teams? i have to record a lecture, and can not have the listeners split the screen. it looks horrible. this is a very simple and essential feature.
anyone has an idea to make it work? -

I certainly need this feature in my organisation and would use it several times a week. Just because someone pipes up and asks a question in a Teams Meeting (which Live Event does not support), doesn't mean I want them on the entire duration of the recording.
Speaker only recording would be great!

Every 2nd Period from 10:30 to 11:00 I hold an optional teams meeting. The students join and then I stand in front of the board and teach a supplemental lesson. Works great. The kids can pin my video so they can watch me work and ask questions. Problem is that the recording show me as one of 9 tiny squares and so the kids watching the video can’t see the board. I need a way to make sure the recording is of ME presenting and not of all the team people watching.

adding my support for this! i'm hosting a virtual webinar next week and would like to record just the presenter and not have a few random participants also show up on the recording (and i know they want that as well!). thanks :)

We are using Teams quite a bit for customer demos and part of the demo involves showing how to assemble connectors. Customers have been asking for a copy of the recording but without the large video, the recording is only good for audio.

I am teaching my physics classes this fall using Teams. When I write on the board, the recording leaves my video as just one fourth of the recorded screen, which makes my writing smaller and harder to read than I'd like (and sometimes the section of the camera view that's included isn't predictable). Especially as I start doing more complicated work, having my writing full screen would make a big difference for legibility and the usability of the platform. Ideally, I would like to be able to change whether or not my video is "pinned" in the recording depending on context (so that at other times during discussion the speaking students can be seen), but if it were just one or the other, being able to have me permanently pinned would be my choice.

Considero necessária esta implementação. Quando se grava uma apresentação, o que se pretende é reproduzir o interesse de quem grava. Assim. Se somente a janela do apresentador é selecionada em destaque (tela preenchida), é este o objeto de vídeo que deve ser gravado. As outras imagens são irrelevantes e não deveriam aparecer na gravação.

Olá. Sou Técnico em Segurança do Trabalho na empresa softplan. Promovo ações de saúde corporativa como Laborais, Aula de Yoga e Meditação. Sempre gravamos as aulas para àqueles que não consigam no horário ao vivo, possam aproveitar em um outro horário. No entanto quando gravamos não é permitido que se fixe e nem ajuste o quadro da professora, e isso prejudica muito a visualização das práticas corporais. Seria possível pensar numa forma disso não ser tão ruim? Tenho certeza que fará meus colegas muito mais satisfeitos com o meu trabalho. E por isso peço ajuda de vocês, que também são trabalhadores e sabem que a falta de saúde pode causar perdas. Me ajudem a promover saúde por aqui. Obrigado.

When recording in Teams, he should keep the settings exactly as we set them for recording. If I'm recording, I'm only interested in the video of that user that I set up to record, the other participants are not. I want to record the content, not the participants.

Adding my support for this as a necessity for remote instruction (college-level here). If I have a student who misses class and I'm writing notes on the board, I need the whole board to be visible on the screen in the recording. When it splits the screen between me and another or other participants, the portion of the board shown varies and not in a way that is predictable to me while writing.

This is vital for our district when students opt out of directory information. Their name cannot not be displayed as well as their video. It would be nice to select a video to pin as part of the recording instead of showing all the participants in the meeting windows.

This is a vital part of teaching a hyflex class where participants will be able to watch a recorded version of the class. Right now, they will only be able to see a portion of the screen. The sooner this feature is enabled, the better quality instruction we can provide. I see that it was planned in January of this year. I am hoping it will go live soon.
