Start and stop recording
When a BigBlueButton conference/activity is enabled for recording, the Moderator can engage the Start/Stop button in the live session to generate a recording.

It is important to note that the recording processing takes approximately the same amount of time as the full duration of the live session and does not begin until the session has ended or all attendees have logged out of the BigBlueButton.
