Abstract
An online conferencing system that provides fine-grained control over recording of the online conference. A participant manager component detects current participants in an online conference. A video gathering component gathers video streams for each of at least some of the current participants in the online conference. A triggering component allows one or more of the participants to trigger operation of a recording component. The recording component identifies one or more of the gather video streams to record, and records the identified one or more video streams. The recording component may have fine-grained control over the recording process. If a participant joins the conference, that video from the new participant may be automatically recorded also. If a participant leaves a conference, the recording of that video may be stopped.
