Chapter 5: Recording Meetings

About this task
You can record meetings to a locally connected USB storage device or the network. This section
describes how to start, pause, or stop a recording during a videoconference.
You can view recordings from the local USB storage device either on the XT Series or using any
standard media player. The system saves the file as an MP4, and records the video in H.264 format
with audio in AAC-LC format. You can view recordings saved to the network via the Scopia
Desktop Web Portal (see User Guide for Avaya Scopia
If using a USB device to record a videoconference hosted by your built-in MCU, up to six remote
endpoints can join the meeting (if your license is MCU 9). If your license is MCU 4, up to three
remote endpoints can join. If more remote endpoints already joined, you cannot start a recording.
Important:
Any recordings you make are not authorized by the manufacturer and are made at the sole
responsibility and liability of the user.
Recorded videoconferences use one monitor only. During recording, the auxiliary monitor displays
the same video layout as the primary monitor.
Before you begin
• To record to a local USB storage device, insert it in the lower USB port on the XT Series. Use a
USB storage device formatted with FAT32, EXT2, EXT3, EXT4. Other formats, even if
supported, are not recommended.
• To record to the network, your Scopia
must be managed by Scopia
