Question

When record a meeting with 2 spotlight speakers - only the active speaker is shown on the recording

Hi dear community

I run Zoom classes with multiple participants.

In every class there is a part where I spotlight myself with another participant, so everybody can see only the two of us.

Unfortunately, on the recordings it looks different: Instead of seeing the 2 spotlighted speakers, which is the desired outcome for me, we see only the active speaker at any given moment.

Can this be configured?

Thanks

@Nogar1505 - This is a known issue and has been reported.  As for now, you can record locally and it will capture the spotlighting (it will record it exactly like you are seeing it), but the spotlighting will only record the actual active speaker.

I am not sure I understand -

Will it record exactly like I am seeing it, which is the 2 spotlighted speakers?

OR

only the actual active speaker?

If you use local recording, it will record exactly like you are seeing it (with 2 spotlighted speakers).
