Hello Christian, 1) you definitely can record everything without second user :) I believe you are using conference/restricted room to perform recording So you need to enter the room with moderator rights: (one of the following need to be true) 1. you need to be admin in the system 2. it need to be "your" personal room 3. this need to be "not moderated" room and you need to be first visitor 4. it need to be "moderated" room and you should be listed as moderator
you need to start screen-sharing application, select area and start recording :) 2) You can use "Command line admin" (admin.sh/admin.bat) to achieve this I plan to add "admin dashboard" with additional functionality like: clean up broken files/recordings :) On Thu, Mar 10, 2016 at 6:17 PM, Christian Wolf < christ...@wolf-stuttgart.net> wrote: > Hello to everyone! > > I am a new user of OM and I would like to ask you some questions. > > 1. > I tried on a demo installation the usage of OM.
