When recording, please keep the following in mind:
- Record in a quiet area with no echo
- It is preferable if the room is fairly small
- A strong Wi-Fi connection is recommended
- A good headset with a microphone close to the mouth is recommended.
- Test a short recording and review the sound and picture quality, MP4 format, and bitrate before recording the entire presentation. Make changes as needed.
