Zoom saves the chat - but as a separate text file. It is not visible in the recording. We use Zoom everyday for training classes.
I submitted my recording and paperwork yesterday. I had a second laptop that I signed into the Zoom meeting with. From that second laptop, I recorded the entire screen so it showed the chat, participant list, and the little boxes of people on webcam. I had issues with the size of the recording. Originally it was 2 GB. I used Microsoft Clipchamp to save it as 780p instead of 1080p and it took it down to about 900 MB. The online submission site has a limit of 1 GB. The paperwork does give an email address where you can ask questions and it says you can send a cloud file share link, but it doesn't say how to finish the submission that way. I sent the higher 1080p version via cloud file share link to the email address as well. Covering all the bases. If you have access to 2 computers, this was a good way to do things I felt. I had the sound from the recording laptop going through some earbuds. I had them sitting on the far side of the desk so I could pick them up and test the sound quality if I needed to. (With the screen capture program I couldn't mute the second computer because the program relied on the sound coming through the speaker and adjusted its volume with it, but I also didn't want the sound playing, that would have been way too distracting for me.)
Hopefully in 2-3 weeks it will all be good
We'll see, I feel like I hit all of the points on the rubric, but my recording did go over in time. It did not capture the end of our exercise, but captured the beginning of it and some good discussion. Again, we'll see. The 17-22 minute time constraint was very difficult to work within.
Good luck
@Avery Ashley !
